The award recognizes the successful development and implementation of Just Energy's integrated learning program.
A partner with BizLibrary since 2007, Just Energy ranked tops among 500+ clients for its strong collaboration to leverage technology and significantly alter the way the company delivers information and training to its staff. This included the migration of 85% of its training material to an online platform resulting in significant financial and environmental savings; convenient, remote access to courses, and the development of more customized content. Since 2007, employees across the Just Energy Group of companies have completed over 24,196 learning modules.

"It is a program made available through our BizLibrary-enabled LMS (Learning Management System). With BizLibrary, we have added a depth and breadth of learning enablement that fulfills an important core value for us as an organization. We are committed to providing an empowering and supportive workplace that facilitates personal growth and development for every one of our employees."
"We are extremely pleased to recognize Just Energy for successfully implementing its integrated learning program," said Shannon Kluczny, Vice President of Client Services at BizLibrary.
