NetDimensions announces availability of the NetDimensions Talent Slate on iPad devices.

 

NetDimensions (AIM: NETD; OTCQX: NETDY), a global provider of performance, knowledge, and learning management systems, today announced availability of the NetDimensions Talent Slate on iPad devices.

Alex Poulos, NetDimensions’ Chief Marketing Officer said, “Tablets are the catalyst for the paradigm shift taking place with mobile learning.  While most solution providers are still thinking of mobile as just another eLearning delivery modality, our approach to mobile learning is different because it truly puts the user in the center of the learning experience.”

According to International Data Corporation (IDC), by 2015 over 37% the world's workforce will be mobile. “Mobility is a critical aspect of how business is conducted today,” commented Poulos.

“Organizations now understand that they need to support their mobile workforce more effectively, and employees now expect a more personalized, on-demand learning experience wherever they are.”

NetDimensions Talent Slate is a native application on the iPad (and soon available on Android tablets) that enables organizations to make full use of their device investments by distributing and tracking relevant learning content, news, and reference materials directly at the point of need. It is designed specifically for tablets and it enables mobile learning and on-the-job performance support based on the NetDimensions Talent Suite, a fully integrated and practical Talent Management System.

NetDimensions Talent Slate innovates in at least two major areas:

  1. Search-based navigation. NetDimensions Talent Slate enables users to navigate all the content and information stored in the NetDimensions Talent Suite via an intuitive search-based interface that accesses news, courses, reference materials, competencies, training records, and other learning or talent-related information and knowledge assets.

  2. Online & Offline Use. Search results from the NetDimensions Talent Suite are always available online and can also be tagged for offline use.  This means that reference materials can be downloaded directly onto the tablet for use at the point of need, and that courses can be downloaded and then run on the tablet even when connectivity might not be readily available. Smart synchronization enables SCORM results to be synchronized with the NetDimensions Talent Suite when internet connectivity becomes available.

Delegates at Online Educa Berlin 2012 this week will be able to see firsthand the capabilities of NetDimensions Talent Slate at stand B42 until Friday.
