SOCIETY FOR HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SELECTS ISOPH BLUE
Isoph Will Provide Learning Platform to Boost
Growth of SHRM e-Learning Program
Carrboro, NC (July 26, 2005) - Isoph, e-learning success
partner to membership organizations and nonprofits, today announced
that the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) has selected
the Isoph Blue learning community system to power the next generation
of its highly successful online learning program. SHRM, which represents
more than 200,000 members, is the world's largest association devoted
to human resource management. Isoph Blue will provide SHRM with
an integrated system for managing user registration and online course
enrollment data, creating and managing content in the SHRM e-Learning
environment, and offering learners a variety of opportunities for
communicating with each other as well as with human resources experts.
"We have enjoyed great success in bringing e-learning
solutions to the human resources community in recent years,"
said Tom Melanson, SHRM's manager of e-learning. "We're looking
forward to offering our members e-learning that is not only convenient
and affordable but also incredibly effective."
To date SHRM e-Learning has delivered more than 20,000
courses to more than 4,000 learners. One of the key challenges the
organization has faced is the need to draw on disparate systems
to provide the various components of an e-learning offering. Isoph
Blue, however, integrates all aspects of a successful e-learning
program into a single, easy-to-manage environment. In the new online
learning environment, learners will be able to access a range of
features including:
- More than 100 self-paced courses in key HR competency
domains
- Discussion boards and chat capabilities
- A live virtual meeting and classroom environment
- Topic-driven e-mail lists
"The Society for Human Resource Management has
been a pioneer among nonprofit organizations in offering great e-learning
options to its stakeholders," said Jeff Cobb, Isoph's chief
executive officer. "We're proud that Isoph Blue will be playing
a key role in the growth of such a successful program."
