Our take
Aptem develops technology solutions for the vocational training, further education and employment services sectors. Its core software enables educators to deliver professional training and courses and to assist students with employment and apprenticeship skills.
Education providers face many pain points when integrating technology, namely the cost and complexity of running multiple systems to manage day-to-day operations. Aptem's all-in-one platform combines tools like virtual classrooms with onboarding and recruitment features, ensuring everything its users need is in one place.
The company has deeply ingrained industry experience and a proven track record of working with leading organisations and institutions - such as HMRC, the University of Cambridge and the NHS - a key factor in attracting some of the largest training providers in the UK. Funding, the company says, is testament that it is "going in the right direction", with investment allowing it to further deliver on its vision.
