Why ORBIT

Staff training shouldn’t be another system to manage

Learning platforms are meant to make training easier, but they often become one more thing for L&D, HR and IT to manage. They come with hundreds of features you’ll never use, another login for employees to forget, and a bill that grows with every new starter.

And if your organisation already works in Microsoft Teams, there was no easy way to play SCORM training there, or to track who had completed it.

ORBIT is a simple app that plays your e-learning in Microsoft Teams, with everything you need and nothing you don’t. Your SCORM training is one click away in Teams, and every completion is tracked.

How it works

The useful parts of an LMS, without the LMS

ORBIT does exactly what you need it to do, and nothing you don’t. There’s no complicated setup and no features you’ll never touch. If your employees can open Teams, they can use ORBIT.

01

Choose your courses

Upload your own SCORM content in a couple of clicks, or choose from the 180+ courses in the FE Tech catalogue. Either way, it’s ready to play straight away.

02

Employees open it in Teams

They click the ORBIT app in Teams, where they’re already working, and their training is there ready to go.

03

You see who’s done what

Every completion and score is recorded automatically, so you can see who has finished, how they got on and who needs a nudge.

04

No new platform, one simple price

There’s no new platform for anyone to adopt. It’s one price for your whole organisation, around £9,500 a year, with unlimited employees.

Frequently asked questions

Is ORBIT for Microsoft Teams or a standalone platform?

It works either way. Most organisations use ORBIT inside Teams, so training sits where employees already work. If you don’t use Teams, ORBIT works just as well as a standalone platform on the web.

Can ORBIT replace our current LMS?

For lots of organisations, yes. If you mainly use your LMS to deliver e-learning and track who’s completed it, ORBIT does that inside Teams, for one price, without the setup and admin of a full LMS. If you’re not sure whether it covers everything you need, get in touch and we’ll talk it through with you.

Do employees need another login?

No. If they’re signed in to Teams, they just open the ORBIT app and their training is there.

Can we use our own courses?

Yes. You can upload your existing SCORM content in a couple of clicks, choose from the 180+ courses in the FE Tech catalogue, or use a mix of both.

What can we see in the reports?

You can see progress, completions and scores for whole teams or for individual employees, so you always know who’s finished and who needs a nudge.

How does the free trial work?

Fill in the form above and we’ll get you set up, so you can try ORBIT with your own content before you decide.

What if we get stuck?

Don’t worry, you won’t be on your own. When you sign up to ORBIT, you get your own dedicated customer success manager. They’ll help you get set up and you can get in touch with them whenever you need a hand.

Who is ORBIT for?

Businesses and organisations that train their own staff, whether that’s L&D, HR or IT leading the way.
