Growth Engineering, a multi-award winning learning technologies company, has won a silver and a bronze at this year’s Brandon Hall Group HCM Excellence Awards.

Now entering its 22nd year, the Brandon Hall Group Excellence Awards is the most prestigious awards programme in the industry. The awards recognise the best organisations that have successfully developed and deployed programmes, strategies, modalities, processes, systems, and tools that have achieved measurable results.

Growth Engineering’s award submissions were made jointly with some of its clients for their use of its gamified, social learning management system, The Academy LMS.

Entries were evaluated by a panel of veteran, independent senior industry experts, Brandon Hall Group analysts and executives based upon the following criteria: fit the need, design of the program, functionality, innovation, and overall measureable benefits.

Growth Engineering and its clients won the following awards:

Hendrick Automotive Learning Online (H.A.L.O.) - SILVER for Best Advance in Learning Technology Implementation

H.A.L.O. was built by Hendrick Automotive Group and Growth Engineering. It was designed to be a way to effectively manage and deliver a blended learning initiative to Hendrick’s 10,000 employees across the United States.

A successful implementation has seen Hendrick engage its learners and save time and money involved in running the training programme. H.A.L.O. launched in July 2015, and the last quarter of the year was confirmed to be the most successful in Hendrick’s 40-year history.

My Home Move Learning and Development Academy - BRONZE for Best Advance in Compliance Training

My Home Move and Growth Engineering joined forces to add engagement into the often dry world of compliance training. The blended learning solution includes gamification and social functionality to engage learners with their training and to increase its effectiveness. They also utilise innovative content creation techniques to teach compliance topics in a story-based manner.

The programme has delivered cost-effective CPD training to My Home Move’s workforce, allowed hundreds of trainees to graduate as qualified conveyancers, and has helped establish My Home Move as the market leader in mover conveyancing. 

Juliette Denny, Managing Director of Growth Engineering, said: “It’s absolutely awesome that we continue to make such an impact on the world stage! These awards are celebrations of the incredible hard work our clients put into their training programmes, and to the close relationships we build with them.”

Rachel Cooke, Chief Operating Officer of Brandon Hall Group, said: “Winning a Brandon Hall Group Excellence Award means an organisation is an elite innovator within Human Capital Management. The award signifies that the organisation’s work represents a leading practice in that HCM function."
