What Clients Say

Client Testimonials

“

Swift Elearning is perhaps the best e-Learning partner I have ever worked with. They not only offer very fair development pricing, but they were able to take an otherwise complex project and make it easy for my entire training team. They communicated consistently, made changes when needed, and provided an overall 5-star customer experience. I highly recommend Swift to companies like mine looking to create learning that produces results.

I came in on this project once the contract had been awarded to Swift. They welcomed me and explained everything thoroughly. I found working with Mike and Amjad to be a breeze: they did what they said they were going to do, on time and within budget. When I said we need to run, they rushed. They made sound recommendations and the end products are fantastic and engaging.

Natali BennettProject Manager

We have been using Swift eLearning for our digital education modules. We've found Amjad and the team professional and easy to work with. Communication has always been great, and emails are usually replied to within hours. The team is eager to help answer any questions and go out of their way to provide excellent service. We will continue to use Swift eLearning and would highly recommend them to other brands.

Swift were engaged to develop a new foot-and-mouth-disease (FMD) online course for veterinarians and veterinary paraprofessionals. The development of the course, made up of eleven modules, was well managed by Swift, who provided and worked to a detailed project plan. Regular communication was maintained throughout, and the finished product was delivered on time and within budget. We are very pleased with the final product and have released it state-wide to the veterinary community to further their understanding of FMD prevention and response measures.

Mark CozensPrincipal Veterinary Officer

“

We engaged Swift initially after running into some technical difficulties with an existing SCORM package and how it had been implemented into the LMS. Swift were able to come in, have those technical conversations with the LMS provider, and solve the problem, which made us and our client very happy. All projects since this initial engagement have run smoothly and been uncomplicated; we'd recommend working with Swift.
