National Hockey League
A digital learning platform powering continuous education and development for NHL officials.
Our Impact
Hesli developed a dynamic, engaging LMS that enhanced the quality of officiating across the league. By combining video-based learning with competitive elements, Hesli delivered a transformative solution that ensures officials are well-prepared and continuously improving, reinforcing the NHL's commitment to excellence.
The Challenge
The National Hockey League (NHL) set out to elevate officiating standards by developing a gamified Learning Management System (LMS) that trains officials through interactive, video-driven quizzes. Quizzes are scored by speed and accuracy to reflect the high-stakes environment of officiating. Hesli collaborated with the NHL to craft this innovative platform, designed to foster continuous learning and sharpen decision-making skills under pressure.
The Result
Hesli closely collaborated with the NHL officiating department to ensure authenticity and relevance. Real-game footage was integrated into quizzes to simulate realistic scenarios. The platform evolved through an agile approach, starting with an MVP to gather feedback and refine the experience. Gamified features, such as leaderboards and trophy cabinets, kept officials engaged and motivated to improve. In addition, Hesli developed an admin portal for quiz management, a video databank, and official profiles, while crafting a mobile-friendly experience that allowed officials to track progress and engage with content on the go.
