California firm bought by eLearning Brothers

American Fork education solutions company eLearning Brothers has announced the acquisition of Rehearsal, ​​a video-based practice and coaching platform based in Reno, Nevada.

The Rehearsal platform lets users practice skills with their webcam, submit videos for review and receive manager feedback or automated scoring powered by advanced AI technology. Since the beginning of 2021, Rehearsal has been directly integrated into eLearning Brothers’ Rockstar Learning Platform. The software is used by companies such as Paychex, 3M, Stryker, Abbvie and Takeda, according to an eLearning Brothers release.

“ELearning Brothers is creating a unique learning ecosystem to help learning professionals create better learning experiences,” a company release said. “This acquisition fills today’s need for innovative and effective remote training and enables eLearning Brothers to help organizations offer more video-based learning and coaching experiences to remote and in-office employees.”

“I love the uniqueness of the Rehearsal tool and the way it drives true behavior change and skill development,” said Andrew Scivally, CEO of eLearning Brothers. “Adding Rehearsal to the eLearning Brothers suite of learning technology fills an important need in our learning and development offering while also allowing us to expand our footprint in sales enablement.”

“Rehearsal shifts the focus from knowledge to skill application, which is essential as companies move to upskill and reskill employees in response to a rapidly changing world,” said Darik Volpa, founder and CEO of Rehearsal. “I’ve known the leadership team at eLearning Brothers for many years and I have been impressed with their growth, execution and vision. My team is excited to be a part of what they are building and to contribute to their continued success.”
