Learning for a city-sized workforce
With 700 services and 20,000 colleagues, employee training at Edinburgh Council had to move as fast as the city it serves. Each area required role-specific learning while the wider organisation needed consistent understanding of core topics — from compliance to leadership development — across a highly diverse workforce.
Getting everyone on the same page
Partnering with Thrive, Edinburgh Council created structures that reflected how the organisation actually operates. Structured pathways guided colleagues through role-specific development while internal communications tools kept the entire workforce aligned on city-wide priorities and updates.
Learning that earns attention
Now, learning is something that Edinburgh Council colleagues actively want to return to. Using analytics dashboards, the L&D team can see exactly what's driving engagement and iterate quickly — keeping the platform fresh and relevant for 20,000 colleagues across the city.
“To have this central hub — where we can deliver learning that’s interesting, relevant, valuable, and useful — is awesome. It’s one of the greatest things about the platform.”
