Unlocking the impact of UK training
Cadra is the the skills intelligence platform for AI employee training, which
analyses workforce capability, surfaces training needs by
department, and builds a data-backed business case that both
providers and employers can act on.
Produce a data-backed rationale for training
Assessment
Run employee and leadership assessments from one shared workspace to pinpoint the best use of your apprenticeship levy.
Analysis
Generate a quantified skills gap matrix that identifies where training will deliver the greatest business impact.
Business Case
Turn your audit into an exec-ready training proposal that balances capacity needs, budget, and long-term business impact.
Sign-off
Turn board approval into a structured commitment, defining the scope, scale, timelines and employer responsibilities to drive programme success.
Onboarding
Move from approval to active learning in weeks with leadership briefings, learner onboarding sessions, and on-demand educational resources.
Impact
Measure training impact with before-and-after reporting on completion, sentiment, engagement and performance - building the case for future investment.
Cadra enables you to run structured employee surveys and leadership interviews across an organisation, then analyses the responses to build a complete picture of workforce capability - where the gaps are, which departments are most affected, the cost of inaction and which employees are eligible and ready.
That analysis produces a live, filterable business case drawn entirely from the organisation’s own data - specific to each department, formatted for exec sign-off, and updated as new information comes in.
The platform then coordinates everything that follows - champion briefings, executive sign-off, learner onboarding, and before-and-after impact measurement - all in a single shared workspace used by the provider’s rep and the employer’s internal champion together.
Cadra is a shared workspace for provider & client collaboration
Why is it needed?
1. Training decisions stall without evidence to back them.
2. Proposals struggle without clients championing internally.
3. Approved programmes lose momentum without structure.
For training providers
Turn analysis into closed cohorts
Business cases are often unsubstantiated and read like sales pitches, which is why they die at boardroom level. Cadra builds business cases from the employer’s own survey data, so it reads like an internal audit, not a proposal. Departmental priorities, cost of inaction, eligibility by team, projected ROI. Every number sourced from inside the client organisation.
Build client champions
Some of best sales reps don’t close deals themselves, they empower their clients to sell from within. Cadra gives these internal advocates everything they need: a business case they can present, a portal to brief leadership, tools to coordinate sign-off, and scheduling functionality to manage onboarding.
Expand scope naturally
Scope for training expands organically when each department can see its own gaps. Not because it's been sold to them, but because the data makes the case.
Keep momentum after sign-off
Onboarding often requires significant coordination. Cadra manages information sessions and application completion, reducing administrative effort and helping teams maintain momentum after sign-off.
Present the impact of training
Measure the impact of training against the original business case with before-and-after reporting that provides a clear evidence base for future training decisions.
For employers and HR teams
Understand your workforce before you spend
Before committing to a training programme, businesses need to know where the gaps are in their organisation and avoid making assumptions. Cadra’s employee surveys and leadership interviews build a quantified, department-level capability map from your own people’s responses.
Convince senior leadership
Training proposals fail at board level because they often look like vendor documents. Cadra produces a business case that looks like an internal report. Every number came from inside your organisation. Cost of inaction, department-level priorities, eligible employees, ROI projection. Formatted for convincing leadership.
Prove the training has worked
Cadra measures outcomes against the commitments made before the programme began. Skill gap closure by department. Before-and-after capability scores. Manager endorsements. Employee impact stories. The evidence that justifies continued investment, captured automatically, reported clearly.
