BuildAI – AI-powered course creation.

THE PROBLEM

Traditional authoring can’t keep pace.

BuildAI

Most organisations still depend on static documents, PowerPoint decks, or manual authoring process that take days – sometimes weeks – before anything reaches a learner.

As compliance requirements grow and teams need to move faster, that approach simply doesn’t scale. Subject matter experts don’t have time to become instructional designs.

Upload or describe your content

Screen, layouts, assessments and narration – structured and ready to review in minutes.

AI generates a full course structure

Screen, layouts, assessments and narration – structured and ready to review in minutes.

Publish directly into Totara

No SCORM packaging, no file exports. The course goes straight into your LMS as a native activity.

It feels like a really good way of turning information into a much better learning experience. Where people were reading documents, we’ve created a quick learning programme that sits in the Academy and can be referenced forever.

measureable learning.

Turning Business Information into Engaging Learning

Bradfords have fully embraced their BuildAI platform and have created a multitude of courses ranging from Staff induction materials, procedural and regulation modules, as well as step-by-step ‘how-to’ learning pieces, relevant to their industry and their audiences.

Crucially the business support and stock teams have used it to communicate system changes and process updates that would previously have been distributed through lengthy email instructions. By converting these updates into short learning modules, information becomes easier to understand, easier to revisit and permanently available within the learning platform.

Results and Future Potential

Within weeks of first use, Bradfords had aqlready created their first seven courses, with more in development and awaiting approval.

Lynda’s overall assessment was extremely positive: “Does it provide some benefits? 100%, yes.”

Bradfords Building Supplies views BuildAI as a highly valuable addition to its Totara LMS, helping the business create learning content faster, improve compliance tracking, increase learner engagement and turn everyday business information into structured, measurable training. While still in the early stages of adoption, the team has already identified clear efficiencies and sees significant long-term potential across multiple departments.
