The LMS for Trade Associations
Give Members More Value
BlueVolt is the learning management system (LMS) built for trade associations, covering trades from electrical and HVAC to industrial and concrete construction. Unlike buying groups, which connect purchasing power to supplier training, associations use BlueVolt to support member education, certification, and retention across every member company. Membership often spans distributors, manufacturers, and reps within the same trade, all training through one system.

Training Tracks are a curated course bundle. Members move through Training Tracks in a set order instead of picking courses at random, and earn a completion certificate when they finish. Associations can build a track around a role, a certification program, or a set of compliance requirements.
