THE CHALLENGE
IA MED needed a scalable solution to manage and deliver their medical training – virtually and in-person.
THE SOLUTION
With Thought Industries, IA MED broke the barrier with a unified system to create, manage, sell, and analyze their entire medical training ecosystem.
The Challenge
IA MED was using Shopify to sell their medical training services. This limited them in design, flexibility, and recording registrants. Overall the solution did not fit their long-term business ambitions. They needed a platform that was integrated with leading commerce functionality, certification management, content authoring, and was highly customizable.
