Got other questions you need answering? Get in touch.

  • What languages does Blossom support?

    Blossom supports multiple languages on both the back and front-end.

    So, for example, in a learning assignment you can add content in additional languages to allow users to choose the one they are most comfortable with and the system will record their progress/outcome regardless of the language chosen.

  • What access options are there for our front-line, deskless workers?

    Blossom works on desktop, tablet and mobile by default and there is also the option to add Kiosk support that allows multiple users to access the platform on shared devices.

    Users can login to their account using SSO (or other authentication method), enabling access to key resources via standard navigation or through the use of QR codes to access learning and knowledge objects at the point of need.

  • Does Blossom support multi-tenancy?

    Yes, Blossom can be installed with partitions so that each location can manage their own processes as if they had their own LMS (including different languages and content), but still access shared resources.

    Find out more about Blossom’s multi-tenancy capabilities.
