In the world of corporate eLearning, longevity alone is an achievement. But sustaining a track record of innovation across nearly two decades — earning recognition from one of the industry’s most respected bodies year after year — tells a different story altogether. For SHIFT eLearning, the Brandon Hall Group Excellence Awards have become milestones in a journey that mirrors the evolution of the eLearning industry itself. From 2009 to 2025, SHIFT has earned 20 Brandon Hall Excellence Awards, spanning categories that range from rapid content authoring and mobile learning to gamification, artificial intelligence, and generative AI. Each award reflects not just a product achievement, but a strategic response to the changing needs of corporate learning professionals worldwide.
For years, instructional designers have leaned on color psychology as one of the most reliable levers to make eLearning stick. Blue for focus. Green for retention. Red for urgency. We built entire style guides around it — and the data backed us up. Visuals consistently outperformed text-only courses in engagement, recall, and completion.
