Case Study: Eastern Metal Supply boosts training completion on any device with Continu

Eastern Metal Supply hits 97.7% course completion with Continu

Eastern Metal Supply, a nationwide metal distributor, faced the challenge of training a workforce where over half of the employees are desk-less and many speak English as a second language. They needed a learning platform from a vendor like Continu that was simple to use, worked seamlessly on any device like mobile phones, and could be branded to fit their company identity without burdening their small L&D team with manual administrative tasks.

By implementing Continu, EMS created a branded portal called EMS University. The solution provided a consistent experience on desktop and mobile, used automated assignments and learning tracks to deliver content, and included self-serve resources. The results were a 97.7% course completion rate, over 126,000 courses completed, and the automation of 32,000 assignments annually, saving the L&D team hours each week and helping employees use training for career advancement.
