“The people at Amplifire have built one of the most interesting and high-impact companies I have ever encountered.”
Will is a rare find. He is among a small group of people who have taken a company from a quarter of our size to ten times our size. His passion for people is contagious and his knowledge around systematically building a growth engine will help us to achieve our goal of having a major impact in high stakes human performance,” said Bob Burgin, CEO and founder of the Healthcare Alliance.

The Alliance’s subject matter experts develop courses to rapidly onboard and train healthcare professionals, setting a new standard for quality management solutions. These courses are used in top hospitals nationally and are delivered via the Amplifire eLearning platform, powered by brain science.
