Terrestris Beats 30 to Win Federal Trade Commission Contract for LMS Operations
Washington, D.C. — July 16, 2025 —
Terrestris, LLC is proud to announce it has been selected by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to provide Learning Management System (LMS) Administration and Modernization Services in support of the agency’s enterprise training efforts. After competing against more than 30 qualified firms, Terrestris emerged as the top choice to enhance and operate the FTC’s Cornerstone-based eTrain2 platform—an essential training infrastructure for the agency’s workforce.
This contract positions Terrestris to deliver full lifecycle LMS support, including system configuration, user and course management, troubleshooting, analytics, and technical enhancements. Our Learning Management administrators will also play a key role in driving forward-looking initiatives such as user interface upgrades, improved search functionality, content playlist development, and the creation of new agency-wide training campaigns, including Supervisor Development Training and the FTC University.
“Our team is honored to support the FTC in shaping the future of workforce learning,” said Alex Horti, CEO of Terrestris. “This award reflects our deep expertise in federal LMS administration and our commitment to delivering intuitive, scalable solutions that meet the evolving training needs of today’s government workforce.”
Operating as the designated security officer (DSO) for the application, Terrestris will ensure eTrain2 remains fully aligned with FTC’s technology standards, OPM training regulations, and Code of Federal Regulations (5 CFR Part 410). As a strategic partner to the Chief Learning Officer and the Training and Employee Development Division (TEDD), Terrestris will bring innovative thinking, agile practices, and user-first design to enhance the FTC’s training ecosystem.
With decades of combined experience supporting federal LMS platforms, Terrestris will administer end-user support, manage permissions and learning paths, ensure timely course updates, and leverage advanced reporting tools to inform workforce development strategies. These services will directly strengthen FTC’s ability to deliver, track, and evaluate mission-critical learning initiatives across the agency.
