In today’s fast-paced business world, organisations face the constant challenge of providing their staff with the required knowledge and skills to excel. Traditional training approaches are progressively being superseded by innovative solutions due to rapid technological improvements.
One such alternative is to collaborate with a company like ours, iGaming Academy, an e-learning provider that offers comprehensive training programmes tailored to your organisation’s specific needs. In this blog post, we will look at the advantages of working with iGaming Academy and condensing your training materials into a personalised e-learning platform.
Being able to design a unique learning experience for your staff is one of the major benefits of working with iGaming Academy. We have expertise in instructional design and can collaborate with you to customise and create engaging and relevant training modules that correspond with your organisation’s goals, industry standards, and/or employee skill sets. iGaming Academy’s LMS system provides you with the possibility to customise the platform using the company logo, style, colours, and imagery.
Traditional face to face training approaches frequently involves scheduling issues, limited resources, and geographical limits. With iGaming Academy’s Learning Management System, we provide a centralised platform to distribute training materials, whereby employees can access training content at their own leisure, regardless of time zone or physical location. In addition, they can also participate in training programmes where convenient for them, whether at the office, on the road, or working remotely.
Organisations can incur large costs for training programmes, including instructor fees, travel, lodging, and printed materials. Your company can considerably minimise these costs by collaborating with iGaming Academy since our courses and platform eliminate the need for physical classrooms and printed materials. Furthermore, with a personalised e-learning portal, you can streamline and consolidate your training resources, lowering administrative expenses and time necessary to handle training logistics.
It is important to have a system in place that can track an employee’s learning and understanding of important company documents. This is typically one of the most important features of an LMS. Our LMS has advanced tracking and reporting features, and when we make reference to tracking this relates to both live and complete data. For example, with your dedicated Client Services Manager, different reports can be created depending on the information you require from that uploaded training material. With the reports having easy to understand graphics embedded these can be used alongside appraisals of performance for teams or individuals.
As your organisation expands or evolves, iGaming Academy’s e-learning solutions provide scalability and consistent training experiences. To meet the changing needs of your company and guarantee that every employee has the same training experience, we can modify the course materials as needed. Whether you’re onboarding new personnel, upskilling existing staff, or adopting new processes, our platform provides a dependable and standardised method of delivering training to your whole team.
Conclusion:
Partnering with an iGaming Academy and utilising a personalised e-learning portal offers various benefits for organisations looking to improve the skills and knowledge of their employees. With tailored learning experiences, enhanced accessibility, cost-effectiveness, performance monitoring, and scalability, our comprehensive approach to training helps streamline processes, drive employee development, and ensure consistent training experiences across your entire team.

While gambling can be a form of entertainment for some, it can also become a serious problem for others. As a training provider in the gaming industry, we recognise the vital role we play in helping our clients understand how to protect players who may be at risk of developing a gambling addiction, and believe through continued education on the subject, we can help keep the conversation ongoing.
One of the ways in which the protection of problem gamblers is prioritised is through mandatory funding. In jurisdictions like the Isle of Man, operators are required to contribute to a central fund, with some going beyond these mandatory requirements by making additional voluntary donations. This funding is utilised to promote, support, and educate others about problem gambling, which helps to maintain ongoing awareness of the issue.
Within the UK, a similar initiative applies by requiring operators to contribute to a national research, education, and treatment fund, as well as making affordability checks on customers an obligatory requirement. These measures demonstrate the UK’s dedication to tackling problem gambling and supporting those affected by it, keeping the conversation on the issue ongoing.
But what can we as individuals do to help? Initiating a conversation with someone you suspect may be struggling with problem gambling can be a powerful step towards finding a solution. While it may seem intimidating, starting a conversation can make a significant difference in helping someone overcome their challenges. By taking action and encouraging someone to seek help, you can help them regain control over their gambling habits and improve their overall well-being.
If you know someone who might be struggling, click here for useful tips on how to start a conversation. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of those affected by this issue.

Many companies make use of a Learning Management System (LMS). The question is though, does your LMS support all of your training needs within one system? At iGaming Academy, we find that the companies who onboard our Management Services package truly reap the benefits when it comes to employee learning and engagement. It saves both the L&D team and the employees time and effort because all the relevant training courses, policies, and procedures are available from the same location.
Here are some further benefits for hosting your company’s content on an LMS:
When we talk about company content, we are aware that the best way to provide training, policies and procedures are to have them all in one place. This ensures that the users have a centralised system which they can refer to for training. From a branding perspective, it is always recommended that the system is accommodating to your company needs and is personalised.
iGaming Academy’s LMS system provides you with the possibility to customise the platform using the company logo, style, colours, and imagery.
Many companies provide internal training to their staff; however, it can be a hassle to ensure that everyone required is present on the day of the training or ensure that they have visibility of everyone who attended.
With iGaming Academy’s Management Services package, companies can upload the training to the portal, or we can create an affirmation button for all attendees to confirm their attendance.
There are plenty of policies and procedures which a company has and the staff need to comply with. The most common struggle for companies is to have all these documents available in one place for the users to affirm and reference thereafter.
Our LMS can be structured and organised for such documents ensuring that the users are always able to refer to the required documents when needed.

Technology has enabled our world to get smaller. It has enabled companies of all sizes to operate globally, employing staff all over the world.
Language barriers, however, can seriously inhibit company success – particularly when it comes to training. When new employees join, they expect induction and training content to be delivered in their native language.
One of the most popular features on iGaming Academy’s Learning Management System (LMS), therefore, is the ability to host translated content, easily and effectively.
Through a language drop-down on iGaming Academy’s white-labelled solution portal, a trainee can switch to their preferred language, changing the portal text and content to view the translated course. Translations can be enabled for any off-the-shelf content, bespoke modules, or even any internal training provided by our clients.
Let’s take a look to see why this is useful for your company and the key business benefits of operating a multi-language LMS.
Benefit 1: Higher employee satisfaction
This gives you a competitive edge when it comes to recruiting and retaining staff. It allows staff to train in the language they are most comfortable operating in. At the same time, employees will appreciate that their company allocated resources to accommodate them. This will also help you gain respect within the gaming industry, as translating your eLearning demonstrates that you are committed to training your employees in an inclusive way.
Benefit 2: Improved learning outcomes
While more and more people speak English, training is often more effective when carried out in learners’ native language. Translated eLearning modules will increase the accuracy of your eLearning and ensure that certain content is truly understood. This comes in particularly useful for those international companies who have betting shops and land-based casinos in different countries.
Benefit 3: ?Increased confidence
Translated eLearning content assures that your staff don’t get ‘lost in translation’. You have made your training as clear as you can knowing that learners retain more information when it’s presented in their native language, which leads to instilling confidence in what they’ve learnt and how they can apply it to their day-to-day operations, resulting in better performance.

Let’s face it, whether you are a trainer or a trainee, we have all experienced that what we learn fades away over time. This is particularly evident if it’s a subject that we don’t revisit very often.
In this era of information overload, our brains need to “offload” information that we don’t use regularly to make space for new learning, so naturally it’s important to refresh our memories on topics that we don’t make use of routinely.
This is where refresher training comes in. Not only does it provide an opportunity to brush up on existing knowledge as a trainee, but it also provides time for the trainer, or the learning and development team, to review the existing training content to ensure any obsolete or outdated information is changed and updated accordingly.
So, what is Refresher Training exactly?
As the name suggests, refresher training enables a recap on the knowledge that learners have previously covered. It is particularly beneficial for organisations when it comes to compliance training or any training that has specific annual or periodic retraining requirements.
At iGaming Academy our refresher training begins with testing the trainee’s existing knowledge using a pre-assessment. The pre-assessment determines whether the trainee has retained sufficient knowledge of the topic and can complete a condensed version of the training or not. Should the trainee be successful, they will continue to the refresher training which consists of the most critical information, including any relevant updates, that they would be required to know for the coming year. If the trainee is unsuccessful in passing the pre-assessment, this would indicate that they would need to review the full training again to ensure all relevant and necessary information is retrained and memorised.
What are the benefits of Refresher Training?
Refresher training has many benefits for organisations and their employees. Some advantages and direct benefits include:
Reinforcing regular refresher training within your organisation will not only aid in employee satisfaction, but it will also protect your brand from any potential compliance risks. At iGaming Academy, we offer refresher training for our main compliance courses. Check out our suite of compliance courses here and get in touch with us to discuss your refresher training needs.

The growth of online education has created a great demand for eLearning, and testing is a critical part of eLearning development. Although eLearning has existed for decades now, its popularity has exploded in recent years, partly due to the pandemic. Companies across the world are utilising eLearning services to engage and enhance their training programmes so that their employees can access online learning material and develop new skills.
The goal of testing is to ensure that a product works seamlessly for the end-user experience. This generally involves making sure a piece of software is not impacted in its functionality, efficiency, and usability. When it comes to eLearning QA testing, the two most important parts are usability and “learnability” of the course.
So how does iGaming Academy ensure that our courses are error-free and frictionless to use?
User experience testing
When doing QA testing on an eLearning product, the “learnability” of the course is the main priority. This refers to how the course functions and is usually defined by testing a combination of the course and platform’s usability, functionality, accessibility, and performance.
Any issues in these areas can negatively impact the user experience and cause friction between the student and the platform. These must be addressed in the eLearning development process to ensure that any possible issues are eliminated.
Functional testing
As our eLearning courses contain different learning resources, such as interactive and collaborative materials, examinations, images and videos, special consideration and testing must be performed to ensure all resources are functioning as intended. Typically, this means that the product is launched in a browser and interaction occurs from End-to-End.
Compatibility testing
Compatibility testing is essential for eLearning, therefore making sure that the software works correctly across all major browsers, platforms, and devices is a must. As the learners access the courses using a variety of different devices, it should always be ensured that the user experience is the same, regardless of what type of device a person is using to connect to the eLearning platform.
We have successfully trained over 40,000 employees on our eLearning platform and our courses QA testing process has greatly contributed to this success!
