eLeaP Review: A Validated LMS and eQMS for FDA and FAA Regulated Training
eLeaP is a learning management system and electronic quality management system (eQMS) from Telania, LLC, sold to regulated manufacturers, life-sciences firms and aviation maintenance operators. The vendor says it has served professionals since 2005 and is used by more than 1,200 organizations.
Its LMS is validated for FDA 21 CFR Part 11 electronic records and signatures, and eLeaP markets specific LMS configurations for FAA 14 CFR Part 145 repair stations and Part 135 operators. Pricing is published, starting at $5 per user per month.
The verdict
eLeaP is the most compliance-specific tool in this manufacturing LMS group. If an FDA or FAA auditor is going to ask for signed, version-controlled training records tied to SOP revisions, eLeaP was built for that question, and its eQMS can trigger retraining automatically when a document, CAPA or deviation changes.
It is also cheap at list. A 25-user medical device startup pays $125 a month, and at 20,000-plus users the rate drops to $0.25 per user. Few enterprise-grade vendors publish numbers like that.
Where it falls short is learner experience and brand recognition outside regulated niches. A retailer or services company without audit requirements would get a more modern interface and larger partner ecosystem from TalentLMS, Docebo or Tovuti.
Where eLeaP fits
Who it suits
Medical device, pharmaceutical, biotech, food and beverage, cannabis and aerospace organizations that must prove training compliance under 21 CFR Part 11 or FAA 14 CFR, especially those that also need document control and CAPA in the same system.
What it does differently
eLeaP stands out for combining a validated LMS with a full eQMS. Changes, audits, CAPAs and deviations in the QMS automatically trigger training and competency updates in the LMS, and both share audit trails, revision control and e-signatures.
No other tool in this group has that link built in. Tovuti leads on authoring and government security, and TalentLMS on price transparency for general training, but neither ships document control or CAPA management.
How it gets bought
For regulated teams, eLeaP's published pricing makes a business case easy: at $5 per user, a 200-person plant pays $1,000 a month for a validated LMS. The larger decision is whether to adopt its QMS as well, which replaces a separate quality system.
eLeaP pricing: $5 per user and volume tiers
The LMS list price is $5 per user per month with 25 users as the minimum, so the smallest account costs $125 a month. The pricing FAQ adds volume breaks: $0.50 per user per month above 6,000 users and $0.25 per user per month from 20,001 users. eLeaP also offers custom quotes for other scenarios.
Everything on the LMS feature list is in that price: unlimited courses and learning paths, a 2,000+ video course library, SCORM, gamification, observation assessments, OJT tracking, credentials and CEUs, API, webhooks, SSO and 2FA. Setup is free and support is 24/7 on every plan.

When the QMS changes the math
The eQMS and Performance Management system have their own pricing, available on request. The value of eLeaP rises when you buy the LMS and QMS together, because quality events then drive training assignments without manual work. Ask for a combined LMS plus QMS quote rather than pricing them separately.
Selling courses
The eCommerce plan costs $125 a month plus a fee on each transaction for merchant and customer services. That suits a training provider selling compliance courses, but check the per-transaction rate against your expected volume.
Worked examples at list price
At the published rates, a 25-person contract manufacturer pays $125 a month, a 500-person plant pays $2,500 a month, and a group with 25,000 users pays about $6,250 a month at the $0.25 rate. These figures assume the volume rate applies to every user once you cross the threshold, which the FAQ implies but you should confirm. They cover the LMS only, before any QMS or content packages.
eLeaP also sells LMS plus content packages, where you pick a usage level and a set of curated courses. Ask for that package price if you would otherwise buy an off-the-shelf compliance library.

eLeaP pros and cons
Strengths
Validated for 21 CFR Part 11
Audit trails, revision control and electronic signatures are built in and validated, which is the core requirement for FDA-regulated training records.
Published, low per-user pricing
$5 per user per month with a 25-user minimum, falling to $0.25 per user above 20,000 users, with free setup.
Quality events drive training
SOP changes, CAPAs and deviations in the eLeaP QMS assign training automatically and update competency records.
Frontline and OJT tracking included
On-the-job training tracking, observation assessments and non-desk user support are in the base LMS, which suits shop-floor staff. Supervisors can record an observed task against a competency instead of relying on a quiz.
30-day trial without a card
The full platform can be tested for 30 days with access to eLeaP's experts and support.
Limitations
Web-only listing
eLeaP's site does not advertise native iOS or Android apps. It lists non-desk user support, but teams wanting an offline mobile app should compare Tovuti.
Narrow market focus
Product pages, content and case studies are written for regulated industries. Companies without FDA, FAA or ISO audits will pay for validation they do not need.
QMS pricing not published
Only LMS pricing is public. The eQMS and Performance Management system require a quote, so the full-suite cost is unknown until you talk to sales.
eLeaP lists a Standard plan at $5 per user per month with a 25-user minimum, falling to $0.25 per user above 20,000 users, plus a 30-day trial without a credit card. It supports FDA 21 CFR Part 11 and FAA 14 CFR requirements, which matters for manufacturers audited on training records.
eLeaP trial and demo options
eLeaP can be bought after a self-serve 30-day trial, with demos and custom quotes available for QMS and enterprise volumes.
- Start the 30-day trial with a real SOP and its training, because the value is in how revision changes flow into assignments.
- Ask for the validation documentation package that supports your own Part 11 validation, since auditors will expect it.
- Request a combined LMS and eQMS quote, because QMS pricing is not published.
- Confirm mobile access for shop-floor or hangar staff, since native apps are not advertised.
