Company mission
To help big employers drive down the cost of business-critical training.
Our take
In 2013, the co-founders felt the frustration associated with the limited learning technologies on the market. To directly tackle this problem, Elucidat set out to enable its customers to build transformational learning experiences at scale. Its SaaS platform helps to create more ethical and successful businesses by providing people-centered training.
Elucidat has been successful in empowering big employers to drive down the cost of business-critical training, making e-learning cheap as well as quick and simple to produce. Elucidat's extensive guidance and support have had a meaningful impact in helping users excel when using its platform
Elucidat's approach has led to the company working with clients including the BBC, BMJ, National Trust, Tesco, TUI, BMA, and many more.
