Roger Laycock and Neil Summers recently represented Electra Learning at the CanMUG conference in Toronto, an event that brought together a dynamic and forward-thinking community of IBM Maximo users from leading organizations both local, and from across Canada. This highly collaborative space fostered discussions around asset management challenges, innovative solutions, and the future of enterprise operations.

Engaging Conversations & Industry Insights

Electra Learning took full advantage of the opportunity to connect with industry leaders, exchanging thoughts on the training challenges organizations face ahead of the MAS (Maximo Application Suite) upgrade. With Maximo evolving, ensuring teams are equipped with the right knowledge and skills is key to a seamless transition. The Electra Learning booth became a hub for meaningful conversations, as attendees—including representatives from municipalities and major industry representatives—stopped by to explore ways to enhance their asset management strategies. Of course, amid all the serious discussions, there was also time for some light-hearted moments, including a few impressive yoyo tricks using our award-winning merchandise that entertained the crowd!

Showcasing Tailored Training Solutions

During the conference, Electra highlighted the importance of strategic training in preparing organizations for MAS. A smooth transition to MAS not only enhances user adoption but ensures long-term success by empowering teams with effective learning strategies. Our presence reinforced our dedication to helping businesses get the most out of Maximo through customized training programs that align with their unique needs.

Looking Ahead to CanMUG Calgary

We sincerely appreciate everyone who took the time to visit our booth, share their experiences, and exchange insights on industry trends. Being part of such a forward-thinking and engaged community was truly inspiring! Next stop: CanMUG Calgary in October, where we look forward to continuing the conversation, and supporting organizations in their IBM Maximo journeys.

Stay tuned for more updates, and if you missed us at CanMUG Toronto, we’d love to connect with you soon!
