INFS — Institute of Nutrition and Fitness Sciences — trains and certifies fitness coaches, nutritionists, and preventive health professionals across India. Founded as the education arm of the Fittr ecosystem, INFS occupies a unique position: it doesn't just teach fitness. It builds the professionals who deliver evidence-based coaching to hundreds of thousands of people.
Their programs range from weekend workshops to a two-year Diploma in Nutrition and Exercise — all built on peer-reviewed research, meta-analyses, and a curriculum standard that demands students cite their sources. Every course on the INFS platform carries references. The signal-to-noise ratio in health and fitness content is low; INFS exists to raise it.
Their graduates go on to build real careers — as coaches on the FITTR platform, as clinical practitioners, as corporate wellness educators. More than 50% of INFS-certified coaches are women. Many have transformed not just their knowledge, but their economic circumstances. INFS calls this "empowerment through education." It's not a tagline — it's what the data shows.
When Dr. Vid Karmakar stepped into the role of Business Turnaround Specialist at INFS, he came in at a pivotal moment. The team had been on Edmingle for over a year — the platform was running, courses were live, enrollments were coming in. But Vid wasn't the kind of operator who takes inherited decisions on faith. Trained in molecular biology, he applies the same rigour to business problems as to research: break it down to the root, don't assume, verify.
So he did what any sharp operator would do — he asked his team to map the entire LMS landscape. Every major platform. Every relevant feature. What could each actually deliver for a fully remote operation running 120+ instructors, live cohorts, automated certificates, and accreditation-grade compliance at scale? The evaluation was unsentimental. The conclusion was unambiguous.
The market review looked at every platform capable of handling INFS's complexity at scale. The shortlist was evaluated across product depth, admin usability, learner experience, integrations, and support responsiveness. The team reviewed what each LMS could actually deliver — not what was on the marketing page, but what a fully remote certification business running 120+ instructors and multiple program levels would genuinely experience day to day. After the full review, the conclusion was clear: Edmingle was the best available in terms of product, features, and fundamentals. This wasn't a passive renewal — it was an active, evidence-based reselection.
"After our full evaluation of the LMS market, we realised Edmingle is the best out there in terms of product, features, and fundamentals. That's when I was convinced we should continue."
Dr. Vid Karmakar
Business Turnaround Specialist, INFS
Running INFS on Edmingle means managing 120+ instructors, multiple certification levels, live cohorts and recorded content running simultaneously, and certificates being issued at scale — within one platform. Launching a new course takes under 24 hours from content-ready to live. Live sessions grew 2.5× year-on-year. The team manages this entirely remotely, with no physical base, and no supplementary tools needed to patch the gaps. INFS even published a research paper using learner behaviour data drawn directly from the Edmingle platform — a sign of how deeply the analytics infrastructure is embedded in how INFS thinks about its learners.
When INFS needed a critical integration with an external system — one central to their business operations — Edmingle's team turned it around quickly. More broadly, Vid rated the overall support experience five stars, specifically calling out turnaround speed and the willingness to build things that weren't yet in the standard product. "I would call it a partnership rather than just a business relationship," he said. That language is deliberate. It reflects how the Edmingle team approaches accounts like INFS: not as software users, but as operations they're actively helping to build.
