Elearning takes a hit but Collaborative Techniques Thrive

In a recent report released by Bersin & Associates the data reveals that the delivery of elearning training takes a hit for the first time ever. This is due to the economic climate that is present at this time with budget and manpower cutbacks imminent. With training budgets down and layoffs within learning & development departments mounting one most consider how companies are delivering their training in this environment. One may assume that they would be moving more of their programs online as a cost saving tactic but Bersin’s report reveals different.

Training and Learning and Development departments have modified their training delivery methods and have moved away from elearning. This is somewhat ironic since many companies originally turned to online learning as a cost saving exercise in comparison to the traditional classroom learning. In recent times companies have found that the investment in learning technology, content, and internal staffing adds up, and so they are switching to coaching, collaborative programs, and other less costly methods.

The popularity of social networking tools such as communities of practice, wikis, and blogs is evident in today’s working environment with companies recognising the benefits of group exercises and facilitated communication improving not just the learning experience, but also social connections with the company.

Talent Manager Toolkit™ incorporates collaboration, performance and learning tools. The collaboration tool allows employees to communicate for FREE using the Talent Manager Toolkit™- FREE phone calls, FREE video conferencing, FREE screen sharing and FREE online collaboration. This unique tool allows companies to reduce their telephone bills, mileage payment and time spend on meetings which ultimately improves a company’s profitability through spending less on communication.

The learning tool allows employees to share their knowledge with each other more effectively along with reducing or eliminating the need for costly external training which gives your employees the capability to learn and improve their skills at a zero cost to the business.

The Talent Manager Toolkit™ is available FREE of charge to all who register before the end of 2009 so if you want to find out more about this unique offering and how the Toolkit can help your business grow and survive go to www.talentmanager.ie and register.

Companies Acknowledge benefits of Outsourcing Software Technologies

In this present economic climate more and more companies are acknowledging the benefits of outsourcing technologies in order to get ahead of competition and be in a stronger position to cope with the changes as and when they occur. All too often companies find themselves in situations which they cannot control, however having the correct technologies in place that are suited to the companies business model can have significant advantages to those who get the balance right.

Outsourcing software development has gained credibility in the last few years with the amount of companies that take advantage of such services multiplying daily. Nvolve limited, an Irish company, stated that the initial idea of providing software development solutions to clients came about by accident. Over the past four years Nvolve have been using a software design centre in India to develop their core product (Nvolve Response™ Blended Learning Solutions) which the company now sells to the market. Nvolve recognised at this point that there was an opportunity to run with this venture even further by providing clients with the same level of service and cost savings that Nvolve have experienced over the years and roll this out to potential clients.

As a result in recent months Nvolve have taken an equity state in this software design centre in India and in partnership they develop solutions in the field of web application development, customised application development, programming and application integration. Software skills that the team specialise in include ASP.net, Sharepoint, MSSQL, MySQL, PHP and many more.

Nvolve’s CTO, who joined Nvolve from India after the buy in and a few members of his team are now permanently based in Ireland where clients have access to a pool of global talent. The team have extensive experience in managing and implementing large and small software developments projects. A selection of clients they have worked with in the past include Economic Systems Inc., Casestack Inc., LawRoom, National Institute of Health Sciences, Qmax and DCW Limited.

Any member of the Nvolve team can be contracted for one week or for one year depending on the needs and requirements of the clients. Nvolve’s IT team are available ‘on demand’ with no long term commitment. Clients will also be provided with a local project manager who will be available at all times to discuss and manage the development.
