ARKANCE and Eagle Point Software Expand Strategic Partnership Across EMEA to Empower Digital Learning in AEC and Manufacturing
In a significant move to bolster digital transformation and workforce development across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA), ARKANCE, a leading provider of digital transformation solutions for the architecture, engineering, construction (AEC), and manufacturing industries, has announced an expanded partnership with Eagle Point Software, a pioneer in digital training and learning management systems. Building on years of successful collaboration in the United States and the Asia-Pacific region, the two companies are now extending their strategic alliance to serve clients across the EMEA region with cutting-edge e-learning tools and tailored digital training programs.
This expansion marks a milestone in both companies’ global strategies. For ARKANCE, which has rapidly grown its international presence through acquisitions and partnerships, the move enhances its commitment to delivering innovative and comprehensive solutions that support the digitalization of AEC and manufacturing operations. For Eagle Point Software, it opens the door to hundreds of thousands of new users who stand to benefit from Pinnacle Series—its flagship Learning Management System (LMS)—and Pinnacle Lite, an adaptable e-learning platform designed to meet the evolving training needs of modern professionals.
Meeting the Demands of a Digitally Native Workforce
The expansion of the ARKANCE–Eagle Point Software partnership comes at a time when the AEC and manufacturing sectors are undergoing a rapid digital transformation. From Building Information Modeling (BIM) and digital twin technology to automation and smart manufacturing, the pace of change is accelerating. However, this digital evolution also brings with it an urgent need to close skills gaps and prepare the next generation of workers for tomorrow’s tools and workflows.
Surveys show that 65% of Generation Z professionals prefer online learning over traditional, in-person classroom formats. This preference underscores a broader shift in how organizations must approach workforce development—not just by investing in technology, but by building robust learning ecosystems that deliver on-demand, cloud-based, and highly personalized training experiences.
Pinnacle Series and Pinnacle Lite are purpose-built to address these needs. With a robust content library that spans essential software like AutoCAD, Revit, Civil 3D, Bluebeam, and more, users can pursue self-paced learning, take skills assessments, and develop personalized training paths. Organizations, in turn, benefit from an LMS that facilitates knowledge sharing, centralized documentation, and alignment across geographically dispersed teams.
ARKANCE Becomes Largest Global Reseller of Pinnacle Series
Through the extension of this strategic agreement, ARKANCE is now positioned as the largest global reselling partner for Eagle Point Software’s Pinnacle Series and Pinnacle Lite platforms. The expanded collaboration enables both companies to reach a wider audience while delivering a consistent and scalable learning experience tailored to industry-specific needs.
“This is about more than just providing access to software training,” says Greg Arranz, CEO of ARKANCE. “Our goal is to help our customers build smarter with integrated digital solutions that span hardware, software, and services. In an industry where the half-life of technical knowledge is shrinking, continuous learning is not optional—it’s essential. Pinnacle Series allows teams to level up their capabilities at their own pace and build a foundation of knowledge that supports long-term innovation.”
Arranz also highlighted the importance of customization in today’s learning environments. Beyond the standard training modules, organizations can integrate their own internal processes, workflows, and tools into the Pinnacle environment, creating a truly personalized learning experience. ARKANCE further enhances this value proposition by offering consulting services, local expertise, and in-language instructor-led training, delivering a hybrid learning model that adapts to both individual and organizational needs.
Hybrid Learning Model Brings Flexibility and Depth to Training
One of the key differentiators of the ARKANCE–Eagle Point offering in EMEA is the introduction of a hybrid learning model. While on-demand digital content provides flexibility and accessibility, many organizations still rely on the depth and personalization of instructor-led training—especially in local languages and within region-specific regulatory frameworks.
ARKANCE’s historical strength in traditional training services gives it a unique advantage in delivering this blended approach. Clients can choose from a wide spectrum of learning formats, including:
- Self-paced video tutorials hosted in Pinnacle Series,
- Live virtual classrooms led by ARKANCE-certified instructors,
- In-person workshops customized for local teams, and
- Consultative sessions that align training with project-specific workflows.
This hybrid strategy supports the full lifecycle of professional development—from onboarding new employees to upskilling experienced engineers and technicians—while ensuring consistency across multiple offices and countries.
Eagle Point Software Eyes Global Growth
For Eagle Point Software, the partnership marks a pivotal moment in its mission to elevate workforce training standards in the AEC and manufacturing industries worldwide. Founded in 1983, the Iowa-based company has been at the forefront of digital learning long before it became a global imperative. Pinnacle Series, now used by tens of thousands of professionals across the globe, has become an industry benchmark for scalable, user-centric learning solutions.
“This expansion represents a significant milestone for Eagle Point Software’s global growth strategy,” said Steve Biver, Chief Operating Officer at Eagle Point Software. “Our vision has always been to rethink how organizations onboard, upskill, and support their teams. Partnering with ARKANCE in EMEA allows us to bring that vision to life on a much larger scale.”
Biver emphasized that Pinnacle Series is not just a repository of training videos, but a strategic enablement platform. “We’re helping companies transform learning into a competitive advantage. With ARKANCE’s deep domain expertise and established presence across EMEA, we’re confident we can bring more value to more organizations in more places than ever before.”
A Shared Commitment to Innovation and Excellence
The synergy between ARKANCE and Eagle Point Software is rooted in a shared commitment to innovation, digital transformation, and customer success. Both companies recognize that technology adoption alone is not enough; it must be accompanied by meaningful investments in human capital. As firms in construction and manufacturing seek to future-proof their workforces, platforms like Pinnacle Series play a critical role in making that vision a reality.
The collaboration also aligns with broader industry efforts to address labor shortages, reduce rework, improve project delivery, and increase compliance with international standards. Whether it’s helping a civil engineering firm implement BIM workflows or enabling a manufacturer to scale up CAD expertise across global locations, the ARKANCE–Eagle Point alliance provides the tools and support to make it happen.
As digital transformation continues to reshape the AEC and manufacturing sectors, the need for agile, inclusive, and scalable learning platforms will only intensify. With the expansion of their partnership across EMEA, ARKANCE and Eagle Point Software are positioning themselves as central enablers of that evolution.
Their joint offering promises not only to equip professionals with the technical skills they need today, but also to prepare them for the challenges and innovations of tomorrow. In doing so, they are helping to build a more skilled, resilient, and digitally fluent workforce—one that is ready to design, construct, and manufacture the future.
