Northboro, MA (PRWEB) June 28, 2005 -- IntraLearn Software Corporation, the
world’s leading supplier of Microsoft technology-based e-Learning software
applications, announced today an agreement with QAD Inc., a leading provider of
enterprise applications for global manufacturers, to license IntraLearn XE. QAD
chose IntraLearn XE to help them address increased customer and employee demand
for a centralized e-Learning system that could measure and track user progress
and course completion.
In looking for an e-Learning system, it was
important that the system not be a hosted solution, be highly scalable and
feature rich and be able to manage content that was self-created, imported or
repurposed from multiple sources. IntraLearn offered that in a single, turn-key
system that was less expensive than other systems.
“Many of our customers
needed to be able to verify training, so we needed to provide better tracking to
support their needs” said Jim Kirkley, QAD’s Chief Technology Officer.
“IntraLearn’s architecture supported multiple portals, which is important to us
since we plan to offer customers the option to have their own custom
portals.
“Our customers need to establish that users of our software are
certified for compliance purposes, they also ask us to customize our existing
eLearning courses so they can provide more relevant training. IntraLearn’s
architecture supported multiple portals, which allowed us to provide custom
learning environments to our customers, while keeping things simple from a
system management perspective. The flexibility of the IntraLearn system has
allowed us to attach a number of specialized reports to the system that provide
our executives with the real time status of internal and external learning
initiatives.”
Evan Lenson, IntraLearn Software Corp. vice president of
business development said “We are very pleased to have been chosen by QAD to
give them the e-Learning infrastructure that can manage the training needs of
their employees, business partners and customers.”
