UES’s rapid growth is largely driven by mergers and acquisitions, which poses a unique challenge for its corporate learning and development (L&D) team. Many of the acquired companies are small and have not previously used a modern learning management system (LMS) in their operations.

When a new company joins the UES family, the L&D team acts as change management facilitators, guiding individual locations in delivering and completing corporate training programs through Schoox.

Safety and compliance training are primary drivers of learning and development at UES. However, because each region operates differently, training needs can vary significantly across different parts of the business. Given this challenge, it was essential for UES to implement a robust LMS capable of automatically tracking these details and managing learning across various regions and groups from a single platform.

Certifications are also a crucial component of safety and compliance training at UES. From field technicians to materials handlers and beyond, individuals need certification to perform specific job functions at all levels of the organization. With Schoox, the L&D team even provides official certification programs for various roles and responsibilities.
