IMC Learning Suite (ILS) is a cloud-first enterprise Learning Management & Experience Platform. Blending LMS rigour with LXP personalisation, an integrated Learning Record Store and AI-assisted authoring, it allows organisations to run everything from high-stakes compliance programmes to informal social learning in one place. Common deployments include:
- Regulated-industry compliance (e.g. aviation, pharma, finance) with audit-ready certification workflows.
- On-boarding & talent mobility – multilingual learning paths, skill profiles and career frameworks.
- Extended-enterprise & partner enablement through multi-tenant portals and headless LMS APIs.
- Product & sales enablement using micro-learning, gamification and on-the-job performance support.
- Large-scale live events / blended programmes (e.g. Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games training 50,000+ volunteers).
