Case Study: PGMOL (Professional Game Match Officials Limited) achieves 90% engagement and rapid course completion with LearnUpon

90% Engagement rate and positive feedback from PGMOL referees

Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL), which trains nearly 600 match officials, observers and stakeholders across the UK, needed to move from no LMS to a flexible, easy-to-use online platform so referees could access training anytime, anywhere. Their key challenges were bringing training online, ensuring accessibility on mobile devices, and making the system simple enough to drive voluntary uptake.

They implemented LearnUpon’s LMS with HTML5 video support and a drag‑and‑drop course builder, launching their first courses within a week. The result was immediate: 90% engagement in the first week, a 33% completion rate for one course within 48 hours, strong positive feedback, faster on-field implementation of learning, and better activity reporting for administrators.
