Organizations have traditionally focused on providing basic learning resources for their work forces, but today’s learning departments are looking for ways to play a more strategic role.
Simultaneously, they are looking for ways to maximize learning’s effectiveness by placing corporate initiatives in the context of the needs of individual employees. Learning has become the connective tissue between the corporate mission and the employees charged with carrying it forward. We call this Connected Learning.

Business Skills Courseware
The Business Skills collection provides learning assets for professionals, offering support for the broad variety of skills that organizations need to develop internal competencies. Business skills courses employ a variety of instructional strategies to engage learners with high levels of interaction.
Instructional design with the adult learner in mind
The instructional design model for each course is based primarily on the concepts of performance-oriented instruction, mastery and the sequencing of instructional activities and strategies. Frequent practice questions or exercises along with assessments measure users’ achievement of those objectives. The interactive courseware experience is further enhanced with rich media, task-based, multi-path simulations to provide realistic practice in the business subjects being taught. Simulations offer learners a chance to try out what they’ve learned from the business courses, without risk of failure and embarrassment.
