Learn2 Launches the Professional Advantage Series
Learn2 Corporation (Nasdaq: LTWC), an open interactive multimedia e-learning provider, today announced the launch of its Professional Advantage Series courseware. Learn2’s Professional Advantage Series targets corporations and government entities that want to increase productivity and educate their workforce. This integrated collection of professional development
e-Learning courses meets a critical business need as companies are charged with
training their employees on communication skills, professional development and
employee conduct. Through partnerships with acknowledged subject matter experts
Learn2 has leveraged the experience and expertise of individuals who specialize
in various fields of business behavior, to develop these effective and engaging
courses.
The Professional Advantage Series courses were designed and co-authored by
experts who are recognized authors or renowned seminar speakers and business
consultants. Online learners are exposed to the same content that they would
obtain if they had read an entire book or attended a lengthy seminar. Many e-Learning
companies design their soft skills courses by gathering content from the public
domain. The Professional Advantage Series ‘ unique difference is based on the
expertise, research and experience, of credible subject matter experts in fields
such as communication, emergency operations and security, human relations, teamwork
and leadership.
Each course:
- Takes approximately one-hour to complete and provides the equivalent of
about five hours of instructor-led training.
- Integrates with a broader curriculum, stands alone, or blends as a complement
to the customers’ existing instructor-led training programs.
- Includes evaluation tools that allow learners and their managers to track
learner performance.
- Adheres to stringent quality standards, consistent navigation and is based
on an instructional systems design model, ensuring a level of quality and
consistency within and among courses.
The courses launched this week include: Sexual Harassment, Time Management
in the Workplace, Violence in the Workplace, Active Listening, Communication
Essentials, Conflict Resolution, and Effective Feedback. Additional courses
that will be available in the second and third quarters of 2002 include course
topics such as: negotiation, interpersonal behavior patterns, business communication,
leadership, teamwork, and performance improvement. These courses are complementary
to the broad set of business skills courses offered in Learn2’s Professional
Development Library. All of Learn2’s business skills courses are designed in
conjunction with subject matter experts.
Learn2’s best-in-class, patented delivery tool, StreamMaker, enables learners
to view the interactive multimedia courses quickly, regardless of bandwidth
limitations. Similar to all courseware offered by Learn2, the Professional Advantage
Series courses meet AICC and SCORM standards and can ‘plug and play’ with other
vendor’s learning management systems.
"Our team has taken ‘best of breed’ content a step further in partnering
with subject matter experts for our Professional Advantage Series courses,"
said Robert "Bo" Ewald, Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors
of Learn2. "In addition to quality content, each course adheres to quality
standards, instructional design strategies and style guidelines. The results
are not only a higher caliber of courseware, but also a more productive and
professional work force, improving business unit performance overall. Our evaluation
tools enable clients to measure a return on their investment as well as the
training’s impact on business results to the company as a whole."
As the Company continues to broaden its course offering and co-author content
with industry experts, Learn2 customers will gain the best possible value through
the combination of quality content and superior technology.
