Omniplex delight as Absorb LMS wins another Brandon Hall Gold Award
Omniplex, the e-learning solutions provider which distributes corporate e-learning products in Europe and the Americas, is delighted that the recent Brandon Hall Awards have confirmed its views on product quality by awarding two further awards - a Gold and a Silver Award - to the Absorb Anywhere learning management system (LMS).
- (1888PressRelease) May 13, 2011 - At this year's Brandon Hall awards, held in the USA, Blatant Media Corporation - whose products are represented exclusively in Europe by Omniplex - won both a Gold and a Silver award.
The Calgary, Canada-based Blatant Media Corporation licenses the Absorb Learning Management System (SCORM LMS) to organisations for the tracking of online, classroom and practical training. This year it picked up a Gold Award for 'Best Advance in Learning Management Technology for Global Training' and a Silver Award for 'Best Advance in Learning Management Technology for External Training' for its Absorb LMS.
Last year, Absorb won the Gold Award in the 'Best Advance in Learning Management Technology for Small- and Medium-Sized Businesses' category and the Bronze Award in the 'Best Advance in Learning Management Technology for External Training' category.
With a unique and intelligent content management system, Absorb can provide language specific training, news, surveys, FAQs, and interfaces based upon a user's profile. Wherever learners are in the world and whatever their job title, the information they receive will be entirely specific to them and translated appropriately.
The LMS supports multiple languages including English, French, Spanish, Italian, German, Japanese, Portuguese, Polish, Russian, Turkish, Dutch, simplified Chinese, Arabic, traditional Chinese, Thai, Korean, Vietnamese, and Swedish. Additional languages are available on demand.
In addition, the Absorb LMS can be implemented within hours.
The Brandon Hall Excellence in Learning Technology Awards, presented annually by Brandon Hall Group at the end of April, recognise and showcase the many technological advances in products for workplace learning each year. The Excellence in Learning Technology Awards program showcases innovations in the products in the marketplace for creating and managing learning, talent, and performance.
"These excellent tools and systems are the cutting edge of learning technology," said Tom Werner, chief research officer and director of the Awards program. "They really change for the better how people learn in the workplace."
Other recent awards for Absorb LMS include being named to TrainingIndustry.com's 2010 list of Top 20 Learning Portal Companies.
