Dominic Scott
CRM/LMS Manager
With Aptem, all departments will be able to use a single platform, with consistent processes and structure of logging activities. We were particularly impressed by the enrolment functionality, with its ease of use for both apprentices and trainers. The ability to report on all areas of the apprenticeship provision will have a huge impact on our ability to scale and make data-driven decisions.
