Your LMS is a closed box. Compliance isn't.
A learning platform proves what happened inside it. It can't prove what happened anywhere else, and most compliance doesn't happen inside a course. aircpd replaces the reason you'd need an LMS to prove compliance, keeps every course you already run as valid evidence, and costs a fraction of the licence.
The LMS sees the course. aircpd sees the year.
LMS platforms are very good at recording completions inside their own walls, and structurally blind to everything else: the external conference, the supplier webinar, the peer discussion, the podcast on the commute, the article read and reflected on. When compliance time comes, your people reconstruct the rest from memory, and your evidence is thinner than your compliance.
We don't do courses. We prove them.
An LMS is the right tool for structured, authored content: onboarding modules with a quiz at the end, a curriculum with a certificate on completion. aircpd doesn't build, host or grade any of that, and isn't trying to. It does the job an LMS was never built for: evidencing everything your people did, inside a course or not, against the rules you have to meet. Keep the content where it lives. Make aircpd the one place all of it is evidenced.
Head to head
Objections, answered
“We’ve already built or bought a library of content in our LMS.”
Nothing about that changes. Keep the content and keep delivering it however you do today. What aircpd removes is the need to pay LMS prices for the tracking and reporting layer that sits on top of it, and it adds everything the LMS was never able to see.
“Our LMS already gives us an audit trail.”
A partial one: complete for the courses run through it, silent on everything else. When an auditor asks for the whole picture, the real comparison isn’t “audit trail versus no audit trail”. It’s “an audit trail covering a fraction of what happened” versus one covering all of it.
“It’s integrated with our HR and IT systems.”
Fair, and a real switching cost. This is the honest objection, not a compliance one. Weigh the cost of re-pointing that integration against a recurring saving of 56 to 74% on the licence. It’s a number to check, not a reason to rule it out.
“An LMS does more: quizzes, certifications, authoring.”
Correct. aircpd isn’t trying to be a content platform. It solves a narrower problem, proving compliance, better than an LMS does, precisely because it isn’t trying to do everything an LMS does.
“Getting people to adopt another tool is painful.”
This rollout is lighter than an LMS rollout, not heavier. There’s no course to sit through and no new habit to build. Most of a person’s activity is proposed to them and needs a single confirm, the opposite of “log into a new portal and complete assigned modules”.
The cost case
How the footprint gets built
Publish activities in every format to the Plan tab, and mark the must-dos. People add what fits, complete it, attach the evidence, and confirm. Most entries never need adding at all: aircpd watches connected calendars and files and proposes what people have already done. At the end of the cycle they submit from the app, and you read the approved snapshot in your console.

Headcount in, annual cost out, next to what the incumbents publish.
Start with the record you already have.
Connect your calendar and files, and aircpd will show you the CPD you've already completed this year. Most people are further along than they think.
