What LGI Education’s 2025 Stevie Awards means for medical education

Canada is adding medical school capacity and spreading training across more communities, which is good news. Toronto Metropolitan University’s new School of Medicine, for example, just welcomed its first cohorts in 2025, and British Columbia is advancing the new Simon Fraser University medical school toward first classes by 2026. 

Against this backdrop, LGI Education just earned New Product of the Year in Educational Technology at the Stevie® Awards for Technology Excellence, which is also good news, as it’s a proof that Canadian medical schools can rely on a mature, end-to-end platform ready for the scale-up that’s already underway. 

Why LGI Education won 

LGI Education is a cloud-based learner management platform for health sciences that supports the entire journey of medical learners, from admission to practice. One of its core strengths is the management of Competency by Design (CBD), or Competency-Based Medical Education (CBME), with tools that make structured feedback and decisions easier to execute at scale. 

Recently, LGI Education introduced a powerful workflow engine that automates multi-stakeholder evaluations (learners, supervisors, program directors and committees), routing tasks and approvals and enabling mobile completion.  

For medical programs that process thousands of assessments each year, this kind of automation reduces administrative load, shortens turnaround times for feedback, and gives committees clearer views of progress.

With that kind technology, medical schools can help key stakeholders save hundreds, if not thousands of hours spent on coordination and communication (email back-and-forth, chasing approvals, tracking statuses), evaluation updates or resubmissions, and cross-system data entry, while also improving data quality and providing clear information.  

Scaling Canadian medical education and raising the bar

As new schools open and existing faculties add seats, program offices must coordinate thousands of rotations across multiple sites and preceptors, and tens of thousands of evaluations.  

That’s why the innovation that earned LGI Education a Stevie® Award lands at the perfect moment. LGI offers secure platform to scale admissions, rotations, and assessments while turning distributed training data into actionable CBME dashboards and OLAP-style reporting.
