Most LMS platforms are built for administration. BuildEmpire is built for outcomes












BuildEmpire is a platinum partner of Totara. We build learning platforms using Totara’s basecode and our Edition.
From core Totara features, to BuildEmpire-only features, see what we have for learner engagement, professional development and more.
With a BuildEmpire LMS, you can access all the core Totara functionality and it’s endless customisation options. But, you can also get all of our features and plugins that are only available in our Edition.

We take security seriously with industry-leading measures ensuring your data is safe and protected.

Our platform grows with you as you add users, courses, and content without compromising performance.

We've created our very own theme but given you the controls to edit and tweak to suit your style.

This allows for automatic data integration for push and pull.
Access a range of roles to give people different permissions depending on your needs
You can create different dashboards for different roles and audiences to give them a more personalised experience when they log in. Or, even create whole platforms for set audiences.
