A business built around our values 

At KnowledgePoint we’ve developed a culture that ensures our business never strays from the values, goals, or high standards we strive to achieve for our customers each and every day. 

Our vision is to become the leading provider of support services to the global learning industry. By designing and delivering flexible and practical solutions which support the delivery of learning, we move closer to achieving this goal every day. 

By doing what we do best; providing support services to learning and training organisations around the globe, we’re helping learning to happen.

We’ve built KnowledgePoint around our values and we’re fortunate to have a team that lives and breathes them. Our people are our greatest asset; they own problems and they deliver on their promises.  For anyone that works with us, you’ll find us to be professional, honest and willing to challenge (with a smile).  We like to celebrate our successes – and that means with you too.

Environment 

We aim to reduce environmental impact so that tomorrow’s generations inherit a cleaner healthier world.  We do this by: 

  • Recycling, reducing waste and re-using resources 
  • Segregation of non-hazardous waste from hazardous waste with appropriate disposal 
  • Reducing electrical consumption 
  • Maintaining building facilities through preventative service maintenance to ensure all equipment is running at optimum 
  • Holding our supply chain to the same environmental standards 
  • Donating old supplies and equipment  
  • Encouraging employees to reduce waste to and to reduce the carbon footprint of their commute 

Data security 

We have been ISO 27001 certified since 2010. 

Today we use NetApp storage on-site and have full backup and redundancy running off-site.  Many of our business-critical services run in the cloud to ensure the best layers of continuity. 

We use physical and data-based segregation to ensure the maximum level of protection in organising the information we store. 

Our printers are connected directly to the data source to eliminate room for human error in the transfer of files. It also eliminates any access to the fully unencrypted data outside the individual responsible for setting up the file.  

We are fully compliant with all current data protection regulations.
