Relationship leverages Zeroed-In’s learning and performance dashboard to measure and validate success for customer learning initiatives
Linthicum, MD -- March 28, 2006 - Zeroed-In Technologies, a leading provider of learning and performance measurement technologies and services, announced today that Global Knowledge has deployed its learning and performance dashboard solution, CLO Dashboard™, as an integrated service component of their Global Learning Platform, a fully hosted, end-to-end learning architecture that integrates all the technologies required to support an enterprise learning solution. Global Knowledge managers and its customers using the Global Learning Platform can now have visibility into the success of their learning initiatives through the integrated performance dashboard and scorecards which measure learning efficiency, impact, and compliance.Customer solutions are deployed on the Global Learning Platform using the Global Knowledge SOLVE™ methodology, an acronym for Surround, Originate, Launch, Validate, and Evolve. The five-step approach turns the traditional implementation process from a one-time event into a learning management continuum. “Validation and measurement are critical when trying to manage and baseline investment decisions” says Chris Gosk, vice president of world-wide e-learning at Global Knowledge, “Zeroed-In brings learning measurement technology and process to our solution suite, and inevitably value to our customers by validating that our customized learning solutions are producing results”.
The output of the Surround phase -- the business drivers, goals, and success measures for the customer initiative -- becomes the input to the Validate phase managed by Zeroed-In’s CLO Dashboard. CLO Dashboard then connects directly with the Global Learning Platform to monitor and measure progress. “Being a part of the Global Learning Platform exemplifies the level and ease in which CLO Dashboard integrates into enterprise-class learning environments” states Zeroed-In president Chris Moore, “We are delighted to join forces with an e-learning innovator and leader like Global Knowledge.”
