Who we are
Leara is a full-service, client-focused elearning company based in Canada. We do everything elearning, including course development, LMS implementation, instructional design, and SCORM consulting. We are known for exceptional customer experience, evidence-based approaches and leadership in mobile elearning.
We've been passionately creating elearning since 1999, so we've seen a ton of transformation in the industry. Our passion led us to the development of our in-house, innovative, award-winning content creation tool, Respond5, which helps us design intelligent, accessible solutions for you and your learners.
The name Leara [Lair·ah] is inspired by the Icelandic word læra, meaning both to learn and to teach. We love that this single word encompases both elements, which are at the heart of our purpose. Our mission is not just to upskill, train or onboard, but to inspire, make positive change and empower.
