Imagitech's 2025 roundup, pt. 2
September 2025
In September 2025, in association with VTCT and our long-term partners, Driving Test Success Limited, we added pre- and post- theory test training material for LGV instructors. The pre-test material covers the module 1 theory test and the post-theory test learning content covers the practical instructional test. On successful completion of these modules and tests, LGV instructors can be added to the Register of Logistics Instructors.
Also September 2025
We held an online innovation session with our long-term customers, CITB, to discuss the customer feedback we have collected over the last 12 months and to examine in detail the ways in which we could use IT products and services to meet their and their customer’s strategic goals and needs. This is where Imagitech feels most able to add value to its customer relationships – working as an intermediary, collecting customer feedback, and converting that into opportunities to utilise IT to everyone’s advantage.
October 2025
In October, we added a new set of multiple-choice questions and associated material for candidates preparing for LGV and PCV transport manager qualifications.
September – December 2025
We have completed a clean sweep of updates to all of our iOS and Android apps, bringing them up to date for iOS 26 and Android 15.
Throughout 2025
In conjunction with our long-term partners, Driving Test Success Limited, we have added dozens of new lessons to our DTSA post-test training portfolio. We now have over 50 lessons that can be assembled into an unlimited variety of courses by our training partners, covering everything from British Values to Waste Management, Basic warehouse and transport systems to the Working time directive and driver's hours. We continue to expand the range and reach of the lessons we offer and have plans to add a further 40 lessons over the coming months.
December 2025
As the year comes to a close, we are proud to have smoothly moved 12 months further towards EoT Freedom Day. Imagitech became an EoT in March 2023 – kicking off a 4-year period of transition from founder-ownership to staff ownership. We now have just over a year remaining until the process completes and the business is fully staff owned and operated.

Imagitech's 2025 roundup, pt. 1
January 2025
Upgraded our hosting - specifically of our DB servers to ensure future availability and hardening against external bad actors.
February 2025
Sunset some of our older DVD and download products: Imagitech originally made its name producing training material on CD-ROM, then DVD-ROM before moving on to downloads, online training and apps. We have continued to support and produce products that are published on DVD and as PC downloads, mainly to support customers with older hardware – but the time has eventually arrived where that is no longer warranted or viable due to the changes in the market. Whilst we will continue to provide support for customers and some minor updates for the rest of this year, the DVD-ROM and download era has finally (and sadly) after many millions of discs replicated and downloads safely delivered, come to an end – and Imagitech will concentrate its efforts on online delivery and mobile apps.
March 2025
Started to utilise DBAaaS - Signed up with our hosting provider for a Database Admin as a Service provision to proactively assure database availability and pre-emptively find and fix efficiency issues before they become service impacting.
June – August 2025
We built and deployed partner facilities in our “Driver theory test online” theory test preparation learning system to facilitate the provision of road safety learning material by Transition Year Schools (TYs) and Education training boards (ETBs) to students in Ireland. It was rolled out at the start of the new school year in September and as of November 2025, we have 24 ETBs and TYs on the system and are providing easy access to critical life-skill information to hundreds of students.
July 2025
Paid off a CBILS: During the COVID period, Imagitech took on a CBILS loan to help ensure its future through uncertain times. That choice allowed Imagitech to survive and thrive through the Covid period and bounce back quickly as the world went back to work. The CBILS loan was completely paid back on schedule.

Driving Test Success Anytime expands into post-test training
For many years, Imagitech's Driving Test Success Anytime platform has helped hundreds of thousands of learner drivers, riders, instructors, and professional drivers prepare for success.
In 2022, we extended that mission by developing a major new feature: post-test CPC and CPD training. Built on the proven DTS Anytime infrastructure, this new capability enables training providers to assemble bespoke eCourses from a growing library of professionally authored lessons — supporting flexible, accredited learning across a range of industries.
Launched in April 2023, the platform now powers CPD-compliant eCourses with full learner monitoring and post-lesson testing. Originally created for the logistics sector, the system's versatility means it's already being adopted across new professional domains.
As of 2025, more than 60 lessons have been created and over 5,000 courses delivered, with a steadily expanding network of training partners joining the DTS Anytime community.

Relaunch of the Official Theory Test apps in Ireland
In 2024, Imagitech partnered with long-standing customer and collaborator: Prometric Ireland, to deliver a complete overhaul of the official car/bike and truck/bus revision apps for the Road Safety Authority (RSA).
Working closely with Prometric, our team redeveloped every element of the apps — from revising the official questions and answers to modernising hundreds of supporting illustrations. Alongside this, we refreshed the user interface and enhanced functionality across all platforms — online, PC download, iOS, and Android — to create a smoother, more engaging user experience.
The rollout was carefully phased to ensure a seamless transition for existing users, supported by extended customer assistance during the changeover.
The result? A resounding success. The new apps are outselling their predecessors, generating fewer support queries, and achieving an impressive 4.6 out of 5 user rating — a testament to the quality and impact of the redevelopment.

Imagitech marks 27 years and shifts to employee ownership
Following its 27th anniversary, Imagitech announced that it has transferred ownership from the business owners to its staff through an Employee Ownership Trust (EOT).
Founded in 1995, Imagitech is a leading provider of learning content for learner drivers of all classes in several countries as well as being a key partner in managing and distributing training material for the construction industry. Its 19 staff deliver industry leading and innovative solutions to millions of end users backed up by class leading support across 4 countries.

What this means:
- Employees gain profit participation and decision‑making power, reinforcing a culture of shared responsibility.
- Customers receive a guarantee of continuity—the ownership change does not affect existing contracts or support commitments.
Dr Mike Bews, technical director said the move "empowers the people who built Imagitech to take it forward, ensuring lasting stability for our clients." Early feedback shows higher morale and stronger collaboration, positioning the company well for expansion into new markets.

Imagitech becomes ISO 27001 certificated
Following a short period of formalising our existing data protection policies and measures to safeguard our business and customer data, Imagitech achieved ISO 27001 certification in March 2019. This new standard sits alongside the Cyber Essentials and ISO 9001 certification already in place at Imagitech.
Dr Gerhard Manogg said: “Achieving ISO 27001 certification was a big step for Imagitech. We suspected that the working practices and policies we had been maintaining for many years were equivalent to the requirements for ISO 27001 certification, but to have it officially recognised means a lot to the entire team. This additional recognition confirms our uncompromising commitment to quality and customer care.”
The new certification offers additional peace of mind to our customers, partners and end users.

Together with our long-term partners Focus Multimedia the system is now in use by the leading training organisations in the UK.
Dr Mike Bews, technical director, said: "This success shows once more what can be achieved when we combine outstanding content with a robust and user friendly delivery system - be that the apps or online via our Fast Track® technology underlying DTS Anytime. Teaming up with Focus Multimedia has allowed us to harness the potential in this marketplace by concentrating each on our core competencies - technical for Imagitech, marketing for Focus Multimedia. We see this success as a blue-print to future collaborations with our existing and new partners..."

Additional question types
As part of the annual re-release of CITB's revision apps Imagitech has implemented additional question types into the Imagitech Fast Track® and Learn2® technology.
The available question types include drag and drop of text or imagery in addition to the more classic multiple-choice question type. All questions can optionally be delivered with multi-lingual voice overs and additional media clips, making Imagitech software ideal for the creation of highly interactive training and exam practice material.
Dr Mike Bews oversaw the development and implementation of these new features and said: "The new questions types represented a real challenge in terms of their implementation: The user interaction had to be intuitive and user friendly - and work across all platforms taking into account touch screens and mouse driven interactions. We are extremely pleased with how the user experience turned out. This has been made possible through the close collaboration of our software engineers working across the platforms and graphic user interface design specialists."
Imagitech continues to look for new opportunities in exploiting these additional question types and is actively seeking new partners for the development of additional learning material.

Multi-platform content management and reader
Imagitech has recently developed and launched a new content management and distribution system coupled with content readers targeting many platforms. This technology now facilitates the dissemination of CITB's HS&E Publications.
Imagitech's solution is used to access to the main publications as managed by CITB and ensures that all subscribers can not only search and navigate the material easily, but also that any updates to the materials are automatically made available to all subscribers.
The system consists of a secure content management server to control access to the content, coupled with custom written reader apps available for several platforms: iOS and Android devices, as well as Mac and Windows computers.
End users simply register their subscriptions by entering their account details into the app or application of their choice - and everything else is taken care of.
Dr Mike Bews said: "We are very pleased to see that this new system has been accepted very quickly by the users. The development was completed within a tight time-schedule and was available across all platforms within budget. The commercial success of the content management system is a credit to our development team as well as our uncompromising focus on quality and design. This focus sets us apart in the market and ensures that all our products are successful in the short and long term."
Imagitech has developed the technology completely in-house and now continues to work with its existing partners to expand the portfolio of publications supported by the system. In parallel Imagitech is looking for new partners to facilitate the dissemination of further publications.
