GuyKat Christmas opening hours
As we wrap up the end of 2014 (pun intended!) we would like to thank everyone we have worked with over the last year and look forward to what the new year will bring!
So before we disappear, the office is closed from Tuesday 23rd December and will reopen at 9am on Monday 5th January.
If you need to contact us during this time, please email info@guykat.com or leave a voice mail on the regular office number. These will be monitored during the break and followed up if urgent.
GuyKat is 5!
This month marks the fifth anniversary of the founding of GuyKat.
Over the last half-decade we've been involved in over 100 different projects for our clients who are primarily FTSE100 and Fortune 500 players. The training we've developed has been deployed in over 50 countries. We've also forged a successful strategic partnership with our friends at Docebo. We've enjoyed year-on-year double or triple figure percentage revenue growth. It all still seems like the beginning of the journey though. Our ambition remains to become the Learning Technology partner of choice for top tier organisations. Over the next 5 years we'll continue our quest to achieve this.
GuyKat at ONLINE EDUCA BERLIN
The ONLINE EDUCA Conference and Expo in Berlin gave our delegation the chance to discuss the latest trends in eLearning with HR professionals and other learning technology vendors. The headline theme of this year’s 20th anniversary event was Changing Learning; topics under discussion ranged from gamification to adaptive learning. GuyKat eLearning Consultant Emily Yates said "One thing that has struck me about this event is the international spread of the attendees. I was expecting it to be very European, but have been surprised by the number of people here from the Middle East. It's been fun speculating what game-changing learning technologies the next 20 years will bring".
We’d like to saya big thank you to everyone who said hi, and hope to see you again. We will next be exhibiting at in January 2015; Learning Technologies Conference in London Olympia, 26th-27th Jan.
eLearning Awards SHORTLISTED!
A great night was had by the team and our partners from Docebo at the 2014 eLearning awards where we were shortlisted for the Best eLearning Project - Private Sector award. Congrats to MindClick and their client at the Royal Yachting Association on the eventual win. Here's some photos of us on the night!

GuyKat Shortlisted for Prestigious eLearning Award
GuyKat have been nominated for the 'Best eLearning Project - Private Sector' award at the 2014 eLearning Age Awards. This is for our work on a project with Mondelez International, the parent company of brands such as Kraft Foods and Cadbury. The project; 'The Wire Marketing Academy – nurturing marketing excellence in Mondelez', has seen our online training used by hundreds of marketeers throughout Europe.
The awards will be presented at an awards ceremony at the London Marriott Grovesnor Square at a gala event on 6th November. Good luck to all other nominees, particularly our partners at Docebo who are up for the best LMS implementation.
GuyKat Online Training Deployed in 43 Countries in 2014
Our recent nominations for export awards got us curious how many countries our eLearning has been deployed in this year. A quick ring round our clients left us amazed. The known total is 43. The full list is below. This only includes training modules we've custom built as part of our eLearning development service. It does not include deployments of our Docebo LMS system, or end users of those LMS systems which would push the number up further.
If you're in the market for bespoke eLearning and want a partner with an innovative, agile and learning-led approach, get in touch. We'd love to add your location to our list.

GuyKat Up For Two at Export Awards
Last night some of the GuyKat team attended this year's Insider Midlands International Trade Awards ceremony at the Hilton Metropole in Birmingham. The awards celebrate the export achievements of organisations across the region. 2014 has been a breakthrough year for GuyKat's international business with an increasing percentage of our revenue coming from overseas. We were honoured that this was recognised by being shortlisted twice; in the 'Education' category and the 'Technology' category. Congratulations to all the winners and nominees across all categories on the night.
GuyKat Supports 'Veterans' Football
GuyKat were proud to provide support to the Everton 'Veterans' team, who competed this weekend at the WorldNet 'Big Tam' tournament at Weetwood Hall in Leeds. The competition, for the over-35s, brings together supporters of clubs mainly from the UK but also has some international representation. Unfortunately, this year Everton were knocked out in the first round of the day 2 knockout stages by a team from Nigeria (who went on to win the competition). Well done to all those who took part and we look forward to providing continued support in years to come.
