Why teams switch from iHASCO
The most common reasons organisations look for an iHASCO alternative.
Reduce ongoing training costs
Stop paying per learner with escalating subscription costs. CPDForge AI is a flat subscription — generate courses within your monthly plan limit (or unlimited when you connect your own AI key — BYOK) without costs scaling as your team or client base grows.
Create training that fits your organisation
Pre-built courses miss your specific risks, roles, and regulatory context. Generate tailored content from your organisational profile instead of settling for generic material.
Respond to change rapidly
When regulations change, you need updated training immediately. Generate or update courses quickly instead of waiting for a vendor to refresh their library.
Own and control your content
Edit, improve, and evolve your training continuously. AI-powered editorial tools let you refine content over time instead of being locked into someone else's static material.
"We moved from iHASCO because we needed training specific to our sites. CPDForge AI generates courses that actually reflect our workplace risks."
Health & Safety Manager, Manufacturing
"The ability to generate and update courses rapidly changed how we deliver training across 12 client organisations."
Training Consultant, Multi-client
"CPDForge AI's regulatory monitoring is what sold us. We no longer discover outdated training content during audits."
Compliance Lead, Facilities Management

You don't need to switch everything at once
Many teams start by creating just one or two custom courses in CPDForge while keeping their existing iHASCO subscription active. There's no pressure to migrate — use both platforms side by side and transition at your own pace.
CPDForge exports to SCORM, PDF, and PowerPoint, so courses you create can be delivered through your existing LMS if needed. Start small, see the quality, then decide.

L&D and HR teams

When iHASCO may be a better fit
You need accredited off-the-shelf courses immediately. iHASCO offers courses that may carry CPD accreditation or IOSH/NEBOSH approval at the individual course level. If your primary requirement is a library of courses with external accreditation rather than custom-generated content, iHASCO delivers this out of the box.
You prefer video-based training. iHASCO's courses are built around professional video content. CPDForge generates text-based courses with AI images. If your learners strongly prefer video as the primary delivery format, iHASCO's approach may suit your needs better.
You don't need custom content. If your compliance training requirements are fully met by standard, generic courses and you don't need to tailor content to your specific workplace risks, roles, or regulatory context, a pre-built library may be sufficient.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions from teams considering switching from iHASCO to CPDForge.
How is CPDForge different from iHASCO?
iHASCO provides a library of IOSH-approved H&S video courses, where individual courses may carry external accreditation or recognised certification. CPDForge enables organisations to generate training content tailored to their specific policies, risks, and operational context — supporting both custom AI-generated courses and structured templates for common compliance topics. iHASCO specialises in off-the-shelf workplace H&S training with course-level accreditation; CPDForge focuses on organisation-specific compliance training across all domains (H&S, ethics, data protection, policy training, etc.).
Does CPDForge provide IOSH or CPD accreditation?
No. CPDForge focuses on organisation-specific compliance training aligned to your internal policies and operational risks. Organisations can create their own training and, where required, seek third-party accreditation (such as CPD, IOSH, or other bodies) for those courses. If you require courses with pre-existing external accreditation, platforms like iHASCO or High Speed Training offer courses that may carry such accreditation at the individual course level.
How long does it take to create a course with CPDForge AI?
Course generation is fast. You describe the training you need, and CPDForge AI produces a structured course with lessons, learning objectives, assessments, and AI-generated images. You can then review, edit, and publish immediately.
Can I use CPDForge for workplace H&S training?
Yes. CPDForge can generate H&S training tailored to your specific workplace hazards, machinery, and processes. Organisations can create their own training and, where required, seek third-party accreditation (such as CPD, IOSH, or other bodies) for those courses. If you need courses with pre-existing external accreditation, use iHASCO or High Speed Training. If you need site-specific or organisation-specific H&S training that addresses your unique risks, CPDForge is designed for this.
Is CPDForge AI suitable for multi-client or multi-site organisations?
Absolutely. CPDForge AI was designed for consultants and training providers who manage compliance across multiple organisations. Each client gets isolated data, per-client branding, and separate learner management — all managed from one platform.
How much does CPDForge AI cost compared to iHASCO?
CPDForge AI plans start at £29 per month with no per-learner fees. This makes it significantly more cost-effective for growing teams and multi-client operations. You can compare all plans on the pricing page.
Do I need to fully switch from iHASCO to use CPDForge AI?
No. Many teams use both platforms for different purposes. iHASCO provides courses that may carry external accreditation at the course level; CPDForge enables you to create organisation-specific training for internal policies, site-specific risks, or compliance topics. Organisations can create their own training using CPDForge and, where required, seek third-party accreditation for those courses. You can use CPDForge AI alongside your current systems based on your specific training needs.
