Norwich Union Risk Services is using Cobent Learning Compliance Suite (LCS) to create, sell and deploy easy-to-use online training for a number of health and safety related topics to insurance brokers, insured business customers and any other organisation who might benefit from such training.

The portal, launched on 18^th July 2008, makes full use of Cobent LCS's high-security, industry standard e-commerce functionality alongside its market leading content management and deployment technology to provide a seamless ‘on-line' learning environment for organisations of all sizes.

Cobent LCS will enable owners and employees to log-on, purchase and complete H&S training courses in a simple and straightforward environment, with easy access to class-leading training materials.

Mr John Phillips, Norwich Union's Risk Services Training and Consultancy Manager, said: "The adaptability, scalability and above all, ease-of-use of the Cobent platform made it the obvious choice for us.

"The application has all the functionality we require, from online payment to end-user reporting, and allows us to roll-out our training message at a very competitive price. Cobent's solution has already proven itself as the perfect platform for large scale e-learning applications, offering a high level of flexibility without being overwhelming for our customers".
