London, UKLearning NewsCommelius Solutions

REDTRAY marks ALTO's first year of success as an LMS delivering a fully hosted and managed blended learning solution with a range of new enhancements.

ALTO is a powerful system that enables customers to create, deploy and manage enterprise blended learning solutions. When it was introduced as a complete web-based system in early 2006, REDTRAY ensured that ALTO operated as an integrated suite of tools to cover e-learning, online presentations, instructor-led administration and document management.

Amongst ALTO's new features is an enhanced course builder tool. Using a template approach, clients can create effective learning content as well as incorporate a range of interactions to reinforce learning and test understanding. REDTRAY has also enhanced its rapid e-Learning capabilities so clients can develop e-Learning content from PowerPoint presentations for deployment to users in a matter of hours.

Since its launch, ALTO has become the platform of choice for many of REDTRAY's largest clients:
• A world leading audit, tax, consulting, and financial advisory services firm uses ALTO for compliance
• ALTO is used as an LMS to distribute a catalogue of Thomson NETg courses for a national UK food distribution company
• A major research organisation uses ALTO for pre and post course evaluation
• The HR department of a national UK TV station uses ALTO for new employee inductions
• A national sports body uses ALTO to host an online community for sharing news about players, fixtures, etc.

Bob Woodland, CEO of REDTRAY says, "ALTO has been a huge success. It's a unique system that enables us to deliver on our vision on providing the perfect blend of learning to our clients. Whilst helping to deliver the right content to the right people, ALTO also provides the essential reporting facilities that our clients demand. It enables them to demonstrate the value that training adds to their organisation through rigorous and customisable reporting."

ALTO is a fully hosted solution that is SCORM and AICC compliant enabling clients to deploy any e-Learning content which adheres to these standards. Based on a learner centric approach using workgroups, ALTO allows department heads and managers to become an integral part of an organisation's learning and development community.
