The e-learning firm Titus has worked with Network Rail to roll out its new Moodle Workplace online learning system.

The system provides Network Rail with a single learning platform. The initial rollout involves more than 50,000 users based around Britain who have access to 165 courses related to topics such as security on the railways and data protection.

Titus said: Network Rails wide-ranging vision for the new Moodle platform includes using it to facilitate internal training processes, as well as providing chargeable training to over 800 external sponsor organisations operating in the rail industry.

Seb Francis, co-founder and director of Titus, said: The system we delivered for Network Rail is the largest and one of the most complex projects built on the Moodle Workplace platform since its release last year.

While working to tight time scales and a very specific set of requirements, we were delighted to complete development, testing and handover on time and within budget.

We look forward to working closely with Network Rail in a support and advisory capacity as the platform is rolled out to additional groups of users in the coming phases.

Earlier this year, Titus revealed it was set to increase its market share in the Middle East as it secures work with a growing portfolio of corporate clients.

School children in more than 30 countries including the UK, India, South Korea, China, Japan and Malaysia are being taught maths, English and science with the help of a platform created by Titus Learning, which is based in Saltaire, West Yorkshire.

Titus Learning provides teachers in English-language international schools with an online platform to share learning resources and homework with students.

Schools that have used the technology include Wellington College in Shanghai.
