Mintra, a leading provider of digital learning and human capital management solutions for safety-critical industries, has solidified its upward trajectory on the prestigious Fosway 9-Grid™ for Digital Learning, reinforcing its position as a Core Leader in 2025. This achievement reflects Mintra’s improved performance, market presence, and commitment to delivering high-value solutions to the maritime and energy industries.

The Fosway 9™ Grid is a gold standard for digital learning procurement, providing buyers with invaluable insights into potential suppliers’ capabilities. It evaluates vendors based on five key dimensions: Performance, Potential, Market Presence, Total Cost of Ownership, and Trajectory. Mintra’s improved rating demonstrates an accelerating trajectory for performance and strategic focus on customer success and innovation. Mintra is setting itself apart from competitors and establishing itself as the clear choice for businesses seeking reliable and scalable training solutions.

The Fosway 9-Grid™ assessment was based on the initial submission of performance data, features and functionality, feedback ratings, and customer testimonials. It also included detailed interviews with the Mintra team and selected digital learning customers, providing a comprehensive evaluation of Mintra’s impact and value.

“The Fosway Group report is an excellent gauge of performance and potential in the digital marketing space and I am thrilled to see our efforts reflected in our improved position on the 2025 9-Grid™,” said Kevin Short, Mintra CEO. “This achievement is a testament to the skill and dedication of the Mintra team and our consistent focus on customer satisfaction and innovation. I also want to thank our customers and partners for their trust and support in achieving this accolade.”

Mintra’s growth trajectory on the Fosway 9-Grid™ has been driven by the insights and strategic actions of the Performance Solutions and Innovation Team and underpinned by significant customer success stories, including the successful migration of 20,000 BSM crew members onto Trainingportal. Miguel Pires, Human Resource Marine at BSM, commented: “Mintra’s project team went out of its way to ensure the success of the rollout. We were able to complete on schedule and within budget.”

The focus on customer delivery has resulted in measurable improvements and has been instrumental in strengthening its market position. Training completion rates have increased, onboarding times have shortened, and training administration time has been reduced, all contributing to a more efficient and seamless customer experience. The Customer Success Team has played a key role in realising these improvements, providing expert guidance and support to ensure that clients achieve the best possible outcomes. Mintra’s customer-centric approach extends to its annual system user forum in Bergen Norway, which recorded its highest participation levels in 2024, a strong indicator of growing customer engagement and advocacy.

Captain Rene Dzicki, Head of Training at Intership Navigation, shared his confidence in Mintra’s solutions: “Having worked with many training providers over my 40 years on and around the sea, I’m consistently impressed with Mintra’s professional and straightforward approach.”

As an accredited training provider to safety-critical industries, Mintra maintained its focus on quality standards throughout 2024 and was awarded the Learning and Performance Institute (LPI) accreditation for the fourteenth consecutive year, and Gold Standard for the fourth year. In addition, Mintra’s Trainingportal Learning and Competency System and the Seably online marketplace were awarded the prestigious DNV SeaSkill™ ST-0029 Maritime Training Providers and DNV SeaSkill™ ST-0595 Training Platform certifications.

“Many organisations, especially those operating in high-risk scenarios, need training that is effective and can be applied in the real world with confidence,” said David Wilson, CEO and founder of Fosway Group. “Mintra’s collaborative approach to this challenge creates a truly effective blended learning solution and is reflected in their position as a Core Leader this year.”

“Our improved position as a Core Leader on the Fosway 9-Grid™ reflects our ability to deliver meaningful results for our customers,” said Kevin Short, Mintra CEO. “We remain focused on driving innovation, improving customer outcomes, and setting new benchmarks for excellence in our industry.”

Mintra’s commitment to employee development and satisfaction was further recognised in 2024, when the company was named one of the Best Places to Work by The Sunday Times and was winner of the prestigious Leading with Kindness Award at the HR Network Scotland Awards.
