AI-powered Access LMS Evo launches to boost workforce training in UK businesses
Access Learning has introduced Access LMS Evo an AI-driven learning management system designed to help UK businesses streamline workforce training and development.
The system integrates AI-powered features, Feed and Copilot, which automate training administration, provide personalized learning recommendations, and offer data-driven insights to enhance workforce development.
AI Tools for training needs
As UK businesses adjust to tighter hiring conditions, the need for internal upskilling and development has grown. According to a CIPD survey, the number of firms planning to hire in the next three months has declined by 3%, increasing reliance on existing teams to meet business objectives.
Access LMS Evo wants to address this by using AI and automation to improve training relevance and engagement. The platform tailors learning content based on business needs, helping organizations bridge skills gaps while maintaining compliance with industry regulations.
Elliot Gowans, General Manager at Access Learning, said businesses are increasingly looking for cost-effective training solutions:
“Upskilling from within has never been more crucial. Rising costs and tight budgets mean businesses need solutions that empower their people to grow and contribute more to the bottom line.
“With Access LMS Evo, we’re transforming workplace learning into a journey that’s engaging, effective, and aligned with business goals. Our AI-powered tools reduce admin, supercharge efficiency, and help organizations build future-ready teams.”
Engagement and learning culture
Access LMS Evo incorporates tools designed to increase participation in workplace training, a challenge for many businesses. The platform applies marketing principles to training, using targeted notifications, mobile accessibility, and personalized recommendations to encourage continuous learning.
Danielle Raja, Talent, Learning & Development Manager at Norse Group, highlighted the importance of engagement in workplace training:
“As an L&D team, we really want to drive engagement with learning and create a learning culture where people are coming to access content and not just doing the things that we're pushing out to them. The ability to be able to see customized recommendations on how we can drive that engagement up is also really important for us.”
AI’s role in workplace training
With businesses increasing their reliance on AI-driven automation, learning management systems are evolving to meet these new demands.
Gowans emphasized how AI can support targeted, efficient training while improving business performance:
“AI is transforming how we work, and learning should be no different. With Access LMS Evo, companies can deliver targeted, impactful training that drives measurable results while freeing up time for high-value work. By blending efficiency with engagement, we’re helping businesses build agile, highly skilled teams ready to succeed in an ever-changing workplace.”
