"I always find Fosway's analysis of the learning systems market valuable and many of the trends they outline in this year's Fosway 9-Grid™ mirror what we are seeing across the market. As a business, we are very impact-led and customer-centric, and pride ourselves on putting the learner experience first.

"We have been thinking hard over the past year about what creates a powerful learning experience and both our feature releases and product roadmap have focused on making it easier than ever for our overwhelmed workforces to put new habits into practice (in a way we can measure), easily access learning from wherever they spend their day (within the Microsoft Suite), and find easy ways to collaborate with their peers on strategic learning programmes now we're no longer face-to-face. We look forward to sharing some exciting product releases with you all over the course of the next year."
