Electric Paper, the Dublin based e-learning company, with offices in Harrow, Middlesex, has received the accolade of ‘International Training Project of the Year’ for its provision of IT literacy training to 3,000 childcare workers across the state of Queensland in Australia.
The project developed for the Queensland Office of Child Care, which was rolled out in conjunction with Electric Paper’s Australian partner Skillgate Pty Ltd, scooped the top prize ahead of other international projects by Smartforce, Lionbridge Technologies, Global Learning Alliance and Global Information Systems.
The judges’ citation said that they were awarding the accolade to ‘an organisation that has undertaken a major international training project that is innovative in concept and has produced demonstrable performance improvement for the client.’
Electric Paper produced the programme’s learning materials on a multimedia CD-ROM, which is being distributed by Queensland’s Department of Families to its professional child care workers throughout the state. They complete the programme at a pace, place and time to suit their particular lifestyles and work routines.
