Stonehouse, Gloucestershire, UKLearning NewsNimble Elearning

The trophy shelf in the Nimble Elearning office is looking crowded after the company won back-to-back awards within the space of a month.

 

Their success began by being named Business of the Year at the Stroud Life Awards. The award honours firms who have made a difference to Stroud’s economy. Judi Bonham, one of the judges said of the company, “The Nimble entry demonstrated their commitment to the Stroud area and community, through their staff, local customers and how they introduce their wider customer base to all that our Stroud area has to offer when visiting them on site.’ 

It’s quite a coup for the Stonehouse-based elearning company. Stroud is a national “hotspot” for the industry so competition can be fierce. 

Managing Director, Neil Hyde said at the event, “We enjoy supporting our many local customers and introducing to our national customers to the delights of Stroud. No matter the size of the organisation, Nimble takes pride in supporting our customers every step of the way and we get tremendous satisfaction in playing a part in their success.” 

The company’s continued growth has meant those visiting the Gloucestershire town have included some big names: Laura Ashley, Costa, Premier Inn, Ann Summers, Gatwick Airport, Pukka, EasyJet. 

Growth of their customer base has allowed Nimble to expand and this became a significant factor when they won the Gloucestershire Live Award for ‘Digital Business of the Year’. 

The judges looked for evidence of exceptional delivery, site engagement and functionality, security, innovation, ethical practice and sales growth. As Neil Hyde explained, their secret is because “Nimble Elearning helps companies create their own professional and engaging elearning. We work across many industry sectors such as health, security, retail and charity at a global, national and local level.” 

The company’s expansion has included customers from all over the globe, best illustrated by their latest - Sydney Airport. This success is due to themes that regularly feature in customer reviews: 

Ease of use: “Nimble stands out as being the most comprehensive and easy to use solution on the market.” EasyJet 

Cost effectiveness: “We delivered triple the training in six months. We've grown our suite of training and are now able to track results and produce individual development plans. In nine months we've created 50 courses and our staff have completed over 5000 courses... and we're just getting started.” Europa Insurance Group 

Ongoing customer support: “The support from Nimble has been outstanding – nothing is too much trouble. It's just a great experience." MoneyPlus. 

Nimble Elearning are looking forward to exhibiting and meeting new audiences at Learning Technologies at London Olympia from 31 January to 1 February. It’s not surprising the Nimble team are also excited about their inclusion in The South West Business Awards where they’ve been short-listed for Outstanding Business of the Year. They’re probably already making room on that trophy shelf.
