Case Study: Emergent BioSolutions achieves 95% employee engagement and company-wide Development for All with Blue Ocean Brain

Engaged Learning at Emergent BioSolutions

Emergent BioSolutions, a global life sciences company with employees in 19 cities, needed to expand beyond technical training to build behavioral leadership competencies (Customer Focus, Decision Quality, Collaboration, Courage) and deliver Development for All in a way that was relevant and accessible. They partnered with Blue Ocean Brain to provide high-quality professional skills microlearning and to design a branded learning destination, ebrain, that could reach employees in offices, labs, and manufacturing sites.

Blue Ocean Brain mapped learning journeys to Emergent BioSolutions’ competencies and delivered a flexible, branded ebrain platform with daily micro-content, weekly email nudges, brain training, gamified elements, and micro-webcasts. The results have been strong: on average 95% of employees use ebrain regularly, roughly 1,000 people attended 10 webinars since 2017, and managers gain actionable insights from dashboards; Emergent continues to expand the Blue Ocean Brain partnership into onboarding, custom content, and management programs.
