The Problem

The main problems faced by FEMM

Technical issues affect system performance

Dependence on internet connectivity

Difficulty in user adoption and training

Limited personalization features

Integration difficulties with other systems

Need for continuous maintenance and updates

The Brief

The challenge & our solution.

The challenge

Manual enrollment, scattered student data and hand-made certificates did not scale. FEMM had no automated way to issue, track, verify and share accredited certificates, and no link between the LMS, its CRM and its email outreach.

The solution

We engineered a certificate-generation LTI embedded in the LMS — define certificates, auto-issue on completion, track earned and issued status, bulk-export, and let students name, view, share and verify them — wired to a Jotform → webhook → LTI pipeline that syncs Canvas, Google Sheets, HubSpot (tickets and deals) and Sendinblue email.
