Case Study: The Swedish Board of Agriculture achieves streamlined certification training and improved reporting with Totara Learn

The Swedish Board of Agriculture Streamlines Training With Totara Learn

The Swedish Board of Agriculture, Sweden’s government authority for agriculture and food policy, faced a major training and certification challenge: about 25,000 people must renew plant protection certifications every five years across 21 county boards, and the existing system made follow-up and reporting cumbersome and prevented digital, blended learning. The agency needed a more user-friendly, flexible platform and invited suppliers; Totara partner Xtractor was chosen under a tight schedule to replace the old system before year-end.

Xtractor implemented Totara Learn with BankID login, predefined course types and self-service certification registration, simplifying administration and standardizing workflows. The platform delivered on time, produced clear, accurate reporting, freed administrators to focus on strategic work, proved cost-effective and now supports up to 200,000 users — improving oversight and enabling more innovative training.
