What Praxis42 does

Praxis42 is a UK-based health, safety, and fire compliance consultancy that sells accredited eLearning courses alongside professional services to British organisations. The company delivers training and consulting across sectors including telecommunications, broadcasting, technology, financial services, retail, hospitality, construction, government, and education, with named enterprise clients such as BT, ITV, Atos, HSBC, Ministry of Defence, Siemens, Hiscox, AECOM, and Ei Group. The firm claims a customer base exceeding 15,000 UK organisations.

The company's core technology is the proprietary SHINE Learning Management System, which delivers and tracks compliance training, generates certificates, and manages audit-ready records. Praxis42's 50+ courses are SCORM-compliant, allowing them to be deployed either through SHINE or integrated directly into clients' existing enterprise LMS platforms. The course catalogue spans IOSH-accredited qualifications (Managing Safely, Working Safely, Safety for Executives and Directors, Managing Safely in Construction), specialist compliance courses (UKATA Asbestos Awareness, Fire Safety, Manual Handling, Working at Height, CDM), and a US-adapted IOSH Managing Safely course. Complementary digital tools include DSE, Maternity, Driver, and Modern Slavery Supplier assessment instruments, plus an incident reporting software module. Bespoke eLearning development and consulting services (audits, risk assessments, ISO 45001 certification support, fire door inspection, RAMS review, helpdesk) extend the product line. The company holds a dense stack of UK accreditations — IOSH Approved Training Provider, UKATA, IATP, BAFE, NSI Gold, Highfield Approved Centre, ROSPA, CPD, G-Cloud supplier, Cyber Essentials Plus, and ISO 9001 UKAS.

Praxis42 monetises through a mix of transactional course sales (£25 per course upwards), IOSH course fees (£114–£299), subscription and multi-user pricing plans for course library access, bespoke content development engagements, and professional services delivered as project work or retainer. Distribution runs through a direct website channel with self-serve purchasing, inside sales for enterprise quote requests, field sales for consultancy engagements, and live virtual classroom or face-to-face training delivered by in-house experts. The company is privately held, bootstrapped with no disclosed funding rounds, employs 11–50 people, and operates from its headquarters in Hadleigh, Suffolk.
