Interwise® and THINQ Learning Solutions Inc. today announced a joint sales, marketing and product integration agreement to provide customers with a powerful e-learning solution combining Interwise's real-time communications platform with THINQ's learning delivery, management and student-tracking capabilities. This new alliance will enable joint customers to reduce training costs, improve learner productivity, and provide a faster, more efficient method of delivering course content.
"THINQ has developed one of the leading learning management solutions," said Frank Zvi, president and CEO, Interwise. "By partnering with THINQ, we can offer joint customers a strong foundation for learning, and a high-performance, real-time communications platform."
As part of the alliance, THINQ, a leading provider of enterprise-wide learning management solutions, will integrate the Interwise Enterprise Communications Platform* (ECP) with the THINQ TrainingServer® Learning Management System (LMS), a fully Web-enabled LMS that manages enterprise-wide training processes to help organizations advance their most important business goals through employee development and training management and delivery.
As a result of the technological integration, joint customers will be able to seamlessly access e-learning as independent live classes or as part of a larger blended program involving multiple modes of learning. Further, users will be able to schedule Interwise events through the LMS administrative tools, display the events in the LMS catalog and curricula, enroll learners, remind them of upcoming events, launch these events and play back recorded
live sessions for additional learners.
"Live e-learning is an increasingly important part of our customers' learning activities," said Ray Maskell, president of THINQ Learning Solutions. "By integrating Interwise's live training solutions with THINQ's LMS, we are offering our customers a way to secure the immediate productivity and cost benefits of live e-learning as an integral part of a
powerful, enterprise-scale learning management solution."
