"There is no doubt that the decision we made to develop an on-line solution to the challenge of individual candidate testing was the right one. The strength of our awarding body business has been built on the proven performance of TotalLMS. This also provides us with added flexibility to develop new functionality and cost-effective learning programs."

- Allan Tyrer, Finance Director

Using SumTotal's solution, the IMI developed their Online Assessment System, which met the three most important requirements for assessment of candidates: reliability, assessments on-demand, and validity. By developing assessments in SumTotal's desktop authoring tool, ToolBook, the IMI was able to produce a large databank of questions to draw from to automatically generate unique tests for every candidate. The SumTotal solution has been a key differentiator for IMI against other awarding bodies because it allows the training organization and Further Education colleges who offer IMI qualifications a fast, accessible and simple way of gathering "underpinning knowledge" of each candidate. The Institute of the Motor Industry's annual revenue has increased 70%. They have also seen their market share of the awarding business grow from 30% to 70% as a direct result of having invested in the SumTotal Enterprise Suite.
