Timeline
2022 –
HeatSpring trains renewable energy and green building professionals — over 100,000 registered users and more than 250 courses. The platform is used to earn continuing education credits for certifications required by manufacturers, permitting agencies, and incentive programs across North America. In short: when solar panels go up in the US, HeatSpring is often there behind the scenes.
We've been HeatSpring's design and development partner since 2022. We're responsible for the platform's modernisation and new features — keeping the service up to date and growing with its users.

Where we help HeatSpring
Learning Management System
We develop tools that make it easier for instructors to build course content and give students the support they need when they need it.
Training for teams
Team leads at companies using HeatSpring can track their professionals' progress and manage course purchases with tools we've built.
Better sales through service design
We improved course discoverability, clarified messaging, and brought services for teams, instructors, and partners into the spotlight. We also helped develop a new gamified subscription service, HeatSpring PRO. When a service is easier to understand, it sells better.
Complete preparation for certifications
We developed a practice exam environment where users can prepare for certification exams. Students can practise exam questions against the clock, and instructors can set the question bank to rotate between exams.
Brand refresh, delivered
We completed the brand refresh Félix Meens did for HeatSpring in 2022 and updated dozens of pages to match the new look.
Emails worth reading
We revamp email templates and develop the sending system so messages reach users and look like someone actually thought about them.
