Case Study: Clas Ohlson achieves scalable, multilingual workplace training excellence with Totara Learn

Clas Ohlson achieves workplace training excellence with Totara Learn

Clas Ohlson is a Swedish retail chain with 205 stores and about 4,700 employees across five countries, known for a wide range of affordable products and strong customer service. The company needed a modern, scalable learning platform to replace an unsuitable proprietary LMS—one that would support multiple languages, localised and bite-sized content, performance and appraisal management, and continuous competence development as it expands into new markets.

Clas Ohlson selected Totara Learn, implemented by Totara Platinum Partner Webanywhere, and deployed initially in the UK and Finland. The cloud-hosted, multilingual platform is now scalable and rolling out to additional countries, offers localised courses, dashboards and reporting for leaders, and includes a custom time-reporting plugin for Finnish tax-credit requirements—delivering a successful, future-proof solution for ongoing employee development and leadership readiness.
