Case Study: Symend achieves scalable global talent acquisition and 100% compliance with Absorb LMS

Symend Fuels Global Talent Acquisition Strategy with Absorb LMS

Symend, a Calgary‑based digital engagement platform serving enterprises across North and Latin America, needed its first learning management system to support rapid headcount growth and a global talent acquisition strategy. The company required a secure, SOC 2–compliant solution that could deliver blended learning to dispersed employees, channel partners, and customers, but lacked the internal resources and content library to build a program from scratch.

Symend chose Absorb LMS and launched two branded portals—one for employees and one for external partners—using BizLibrary content to populate onboarding, instructor‑led courses, and compliance training. The solution made learning accessible and measurable, embedded the “Liftoff” onboarding program companywide, enabled monthly reporting for executives and auditors, and delivered highly engaged learners with a 100% completion rate for required compliance training.
