Atlanta, GA, May 22, 2017 – Founded in 1997 as Galbraith Media and renamed in 2006, dominKnow Learning Systems is at ATD International celebrating two decades of excellence in the eLearning industry.

“We are very proud of our accomplishments over the past 20 years,” says dominKnow CEO Luke Hickey. “The key to success for us has been our ability to continually build upon our experience – both as continuous learners and as educational content creators. Our passion as learners means our instructional and system design philosophies place the learner at the center of the learning experience, while our long history as content developers has taught us the “power of many”, and how to best leverage collaboration, sharing, and content re-use in the learning content design process. Understanding collaboration and team workflows is not just a feature checkbox for us, it has been in our DNA from the very beginning of our product design process.”

Technology Leaders

The results have been impressive. dominKnow has and continues to be a leader in the eLearning authoring tools space and has been recognized as such by industry experts and customers alike. 

“When we introduced Claro in 2011 it was the first authoring platform to output fully conformant HTML5 content — enabling organizations to reach all of their learners. In 2015 we introduced Flow, our content-authoring software that outputs fully responsive and adaptive content. 2016 saw major advances in the xAPI capabilities of our authoring platform, and in 2017 Capture & Convey, the latest additions to the dominKnow Platform, completed the core of our system. Now all the tools and services any content team needs — from authors, to course publishers and consumers focused on content delivery and user analytics — are all together in one integrated package,” continues Hickey.

The results of 20 years of innovation are fully on display in the brand new dominKnow Platform, their web-based authoring and publishing solution that helps teams collaborate in real-time, share and re-use content, and engage subject matter experts in the review process — no matter where they are located. With the dominKnow Platform, responsive and adaptive content can be created for any type of formal or informal learning — all from a single source. The platform outputs HTML5 and WCAG 2.0 Level AA compliant content and publishes to SCORM, AICC, xAPI and PENS standards, so content is ready for delivery from virtually any location. 

Simplistic in appearance, the dominKnow platform is by far the industries most advanced authoring and publishing platform of its kind. Imitated, but never replicated. 

Award Winning

Industry experts agree that dominKnow’s eLearning products are best-in-class, year-after-year. Since their inception dominKnow has won more than 20 major industry awards. Of most recent note, TrainingIndustry.com has honoured dominKnow a "Top Authoring Tool Company" for the past five years. In addition, dominKnow has won gold in Brandon Hall's prestigious Excellence in Technology awards 4 times, eLearning 24/7 has rated their authoring tool #1 four times, and in the most recent edition of the Best of Elearning! Awards, dominKnow walked away with the Top Learning Content Management System for the second year in a row, and an Award of Excellence for Mobile Authoring.

Customer Approved

It’s nice to have the backing of the eLearning industry, but the proof of great products always lies with customer satisfaction. The dominKnow Platform is winning accolades for its ease-of-use, and the time and money it’s saving organizations.

“dominKnow’s centralized platform and workflow tools help us maximize our resources and save time and money,” says Susan Murphy, Director of Professional Learning Services at UL EHS Sustainability. “For example, we currently have 800 course translations underway and we estimate a 50% reduction in translation costs with the dominKnow platform compared to our previous methods and tools.”

Megan Torrance, Chief Energy Officer at TorranceLearning, would agree. “We chose dominKnow as our development tool because its cloud-based SaaS system allows for easy collaboration and sharing of media across multiple languages and modules. Additionally, the dominKnow suite of tools offers powerful and flexible support of Experience API (xAPI).
