The best learning programs don't stand still, and neither do we. From new publishers and product updates to expert insights and upcoming events, here's everything we've launched this month to help you deliver training that works when it matters most.
New in OpenSesame Plus: Ethena and Digital Cloud Training
We’re expanding the OpenSesame Plus catalog with two new publishers designed to help organizations build critical skills for today’s workplace, from modern compliance training that feels relevant to real work to technical training that helps teams build practical cloud, data, AI, and security skills.
Ethena: Compliance training that feels built for today’s workplace
Compliance training has a reputation, and let’s be honest, it’s not always a good one. Ethena is changing that with modern ethics and compliance courses designed to feel relevant, practical, and connected to the situations employees actually face at work.
Ethena uses realistic scenarios, clear examples, and engaging writing to help learners understand key workplace standards and make better decisions in the moments that matter. Courses cover essential topics including harassment prevention, workplace violence prevention, cybersecurity awareness, data privacy, code of conduct, and more.
Organizations can also customize Ethena content to reflect their own workplace, from leadership messages and internal initiatives to company policies and location-specific information. That means compliance training can feel less generic and more connected to your organization’s priorities, expectations, and culture.
Digital Cloud Training: Practical cloud training for technical teams
Cloud, data, AI, and security skills are moving fast. Digital Cloud Training helps learners keep up with expert-led, self-paced courses designed to build practical technical skills and support AWS certification readiness.
With training across AWS, cloud computing, data, AI, and security, Digital Cloud Training gives both new and experienced learners flexible ways to build job-ready skills. Courses focus on real-world application, helping technical teams connect key concepts to the work they’re doing every day.
For organizations, Digital Cloud Training makes it easier to support technical upskilling at scale. From strengthening cloud security knowledge to preparing for AWS certifications, these courses help teams build confidence, stay current, and develop skills they can apply in their roles.

New: LearnUpon Integration
Getting training into your LMS shouldn't be a manual process.
With our new LearnUpon integration, OpenSesame courses flow directly into LearnUpon, eliminating the need to download, upload, and manage content by hand. Courses become available in minutes, updates stay in sync automatically, and learning teams spend less time on administration and more time supporting workforce readiness.
Less busywork. Faster delivery. Training that works when it matters most.
