Case Study: Lely achieves global, automated certification for remote field engineers with Totara Learn

Lely Develops Agricultural Engineers With Limited Internet Access With Totara Learn

Lely, a Dutch maker of high-tech agricultural equipment founded in 1948, needed a way to ensure staff and field engineers worldwide were consistently trained and certified. Their priorities were faster onboarding for new hires, continuous development for current employees, and preparation for high-potential staff — all complicated by field engineers who often have limited or no internet access and must hold valid certifications to operate complex machinery.

Working with Totara Partner Bright Alley, Lely implemented Totara Learn to centralize training records, manage certifications and import historic results. Integrating the LMS with Active Directory lets certifications be pushed to give automated, personalized access to specific products, while Totara’s online and face-to-face modules enable consistent, global training. The result is a single global learning platform that puts managers in control, maintains high safety and service standards, and makes learning available anytime, anywhere.
