We are honored and excited to partner with such a forward-looking and innovative organization.”
Journey by Forj brings learning and community together in one integrated experience because learning alone is no longer enough. The platform enables associations to deliver personalized learning pathways, facilitate meaningful professional collaboration, and uncover insights that guide future education and member engagement strategies.
“We needed a partner who could help us move beyond fragmented experiences and deliver something more connected, more intuitive, and built for the future,” said Stephen Sye, VP of Information Technology at Heart Rhythm Society. “Forj brings together learning and community in a way that aligns with where we’re going and gives us the foundation to better serve our members at every stage of their journey.”
