Legacy Level Up - Thought Industries
(LEGACY) Level Up
This handbook page is meant to support both learners and administrators in Level Up. Thought Industries is the provider of the Level Up platform and is mentioned often in this documentation. We’re currently going through the implementation of a new version of LevelUp, using a new system - Cornerstone. We’ve moved this page to be titled Legacy to avoid confusion between the two systems whilst the transiton is taking place. We expect the implementation to be complete sometime in Q2 FY2026. More infromation can be found on the main LevelUp handbook page.

Learning Evangelist Training
To contribute to Level Up, there are two things to do.
First, please open an issue in the lxp-contributions project using the lxp_contribution
issue template and tag Jamie Allen
. We will review your training request and advise on next steps. The Learning and Development team can assist in the creation of content, or if you’d prefer, you can go through the Learning Evangelist Training so that you can create it yourself.
If you want to build the content into the platform yourself, please complete the Level Up Learning Evangelist training. This training course uses instructional videos to teach learners the basics of content creation in Level Up, and includes some best practice to think about when designing learning content and gathering materials. Once you have completed the training, the Learning and Development team will uplift your permissions in Level Up to give you access to course authoring tools.
You can also use the Learning Evangelist handbook page to review any of the content in the course, directly from the handbook.
