The need for personalised learning

As the largest college in Teesside, Middlesbrough College needed a platform that could support both compliance training and genuine personal development for a diverse staff body. Onboarding needed an overhaul to reflect the college's progressive, people-first culture.

Transforming compliance

In launching Thrive, Middlesbrough College overhauled their existing induction process and replaced it with interactive pathways. Compliance training became engaging rather than burdensome, and employee training content was structured around roles and development goals for the first time.

A relevant and inclusive induction

Since Thrive has been deeply ingrained within the College, the impact and results have been impressive: 165,000 content views and a 90% platform adoption rate. With nearly 100% of learners completing crucial topics such as Safeguarding, Middlesbrough College can confidently assert they have achieved their compliance goals. Analytics gave the team clear visibility of engagement and completion, while mobile access ensured staff could learn on the go.

Natalie James, Workforce Development at Middlesbrough College, commented: "The induction process has become super relevant and inclusive for all people that join Middlesbrough."

“We’ve seen many different platforms on the marketplace but we knew we needed something that’s so much more than just an LMS. Thrive has helped us revolutionise our learning culture here across our staff population, learning is now something you are an active owner of and you drive yourself rather than something that’s done to you.”
