UK Training Industry Press Releases

The e-learning solutions provider, Omniplex - which represents the Canada-based Blatant Media Corporation (Blatant) in Europe - has revealed that Blatant's Absorb Anywhere learning management system (LMS) has just been named among TrainingIndustry.com's Top 20 Learning Portal Companies.

This list is designed to help buyers in their search for the right training solution partners and the selection of the Top 20 Learning Portal Companies is based on the following criteria:

• Breadth of portal capabilities and types of clients served
• Commitment to the corporate training industry
• Industry visibility, innovation and impact
• Number and strength of clients
• Geographic reach
• Company size and growth potential

Omniplex's Managing Director, Matthew Lloyd, commented: "This recognition comes on the heels of Gold and Bronze awards from Brandon Hall for best advances in learning management technology. We're delighted that our firm belief in Absorb's value is being borne out by these awards.    

"Ease of use and flexibility are the hallmarks of the Absorb LMS," Lloyd continued. "The solution excels at delivering and tracking learning programmes for both employees and external learners, allowing an organisation to respond quickly to business requirements or market conditions.

"We're finding that Absorb LMS is continuing to gain new clients who are migrating from legacy systems because of the way in which Absorb LMS evolves to match the client's unique workflow - rather than forcing the client to adapt to the LMS," he added.

Absorb Anywhere delivers LMS training to over 1m employees and students in some 1,200 companies globally. Among the list of international clients are Rolls Royce Motor Cars, the US Department of Energy, Virgin Mobile Canada and Getty Images.

Peter Jurisic, Absorb Anywhere's Vice President of Business Development, said: "For Absorb LMS to be recognised by Training Industry as a leader in e-learning software is praise of the highest order. Absorb LMS is rapidly becoming known as one of, if not the most powerful and flexible, LMS available today."

According to Doug Harward, Chief Executive Officer of Training Industry, Inc: "Our Top 20 Companies deliver the most innovative and, often, the most comprehensive suite of products and services in the marketplace. Companies can count on the capabilities of these providers when looking to implement their own learning portal."

Omniplex's e-learning solutions address the full value-chain of technology-based learning, including authoring tools and services, learning management systems (LMS), as well as innovative solutions for learning re-enforcement.
