One company, two tracks

How Future Life Group grew from certification into technology

Future Life Group has spent twenty-five years deciding what competence means in an industry. Covid took the rooms away, the partner network demanded technology, and six years later we build the software those same industries run on.

The two tracks

The left-hand side is our certification work: centres, assessors, examinations, certificates. The right-hand side is our technology work, and it starts later because it was forced to — 2020 is where the two tracks meet, and everything on the right after that was built for industries already on the left.

Certification Technology
2003
FLG founded in London

Incorporated as Harrow College Ltd, to bridge academic education and real employment through independent, industry-specific certification.

2005
Renamed, and the first office abroad

Harrow College Ltd becomes the London Academy of Professional Training, and opens in Dubai.

2006
The first accredited centre

Karamah Training Centre in Sharjah — the beginning of a network that now passes 500 centres.

2012
Technology enters the assessment

Digital tools are brought into the way assessments are delivered. The first software Future Life Group depends on rather than buys.

2016
Pearson VUE

Examinations become deliverable at secure test centres worldwide, which is what makes the certification portable.

2018
The platform is built

A learning management system and an online examination platform, built because a network of that size across that many countries could not be run on anything that existed. This is where our technology starts.

2020
The first government contract

The Dubai Land Department — an institution buying the standard, not just a training provider.

2020
The pandemic stops the centres

Training centres cannot open. A network built on people in rooms has no rooms. Future Life Group was already in B2B partnerships across a dozen industries — and without technology, every one of those relationships had nothing to run on.

2020
The partners force the decision

This is the turn. The demand for technology came from the partner network itself, not from an idea in a boardroom: without IT solutions through Covid the whole Future Life Group network was dead. That is what made IT an industry worth entering rather than a cost worth carrying.

2020—2026
Software built for the industries we already knew

Six years of building SaaS for the very industries Future Life Group was already providing assessment and certification to — aviation, beauty, culinary, hospitality, retail, petcare. Not new markets to learn, but industries whose standards we had spent years writing.

2026
One platform, rebuilt

The whole thing rewritten as a single system — 47 modules and 407 data models — with communication, billing, learning and certification writing to the same record.

2026
Six years to stand up in IT

It took six years from that compulsion to stand in IT solutions where Future Life Group is today: a technology company selling to industries, not a certification body with software attached.

Certify an industry→Learn what it has to prove→Build the software it runs on

Why the technology track had to exist

Covid is the honest answer. A network built on people in rooms lost its rooms, and the demand for technology came from the partner network itself — without IT solutions through those years the whole Future Life Group network was dead. That is what turned IT from a cost into an industry worth entering.

From 2020 to 2026 the software was built for the industries Future Life Group was already assessing and certifying. Not new markets to go and learn — aviation, beauty, culinary, hospitality, retail, petcare, the same sectors whose standards we had spent years writing.

Most software companies begin with technology and go looking for a problem. Future Life Group began with twenty-five years of the problem, and six years of being forced to solve it.
