Lars Hyland said: “Totara continues to grow from strength to strength, with the number of supporting partners at Learning Technologies a testament to the value and flexibility of our products, particularly Totara Learn, our market-leading learning management system (LMS). This year, 2020, is particularly exciting as we will be adding to our product suite: Totara Perform, a powerful performance management solution and Totara Engage, a definitive learning experience platform (LXP). Together, our integrated suite will offer organisations a simple route to bring often disparate systems together, improving the overall employee experience.”
