Case Study: Michael Garron Hospital achieves 24/7 learning and reduces training costs with Absorb LMS

Teaching Hospital Champions Innovation and Reduces Training Costs with Absorb LMS

Michael Garron Hospital, a 2,400‑plus‑staff teaching hospital in East Toronto, needed a modern learning platform to scale eLearning and deliver around‑the‑clock training for employees on fast‑paced, rotating shifts. Their legacy LMS couldn’t support videos, gamification, efficient scheduling or reliable reporting, making instructor‑led training costly and administratively burdensome.

By adopting Absorb LMS with HRIS integration, MGH implemented a flexible 24/7 learning environment that supports multimedia, gamification and streamlined accreditation reporting, reducing the need for face‑to‑face sessions and lowering training costs. The solution improved learner engagement, simplified compliance tracking and provided a scalable foundation for ongoing learning program growth.
