HunterStone Announces Partnership With Digilore
Columbia, SC – HunterStone Inc., a
leading provider of e-Learning and IT tools for Microsoft
environments, today announced a strategic agreement with
DigiLore Corporation that enables organizations to rapidly
deploy eLearning solutions.
Through the agreement, content creators can now rapidly
convert existing content to eLearning and develop learning
objects using familiar Microsoft Office applications and
deploy them in real-time. The Sharable Content Object
Reference Model (SCORM) compliant learning modules can be
stored, tagged and accessed on an “as needed” basis from the
SharePoint content library and launched and tracked in a
rich learning environment.
“Through this strategic agreement, HunterStone increases
the distribution network of THESIS and gives DigiLore
customers the means to develop media-rich web-based learning
modules without the knowledge of the underlying rules of
SCORM,” said Neil Richards, President and CEO, HunterStone.
“Now any subject matter expert – product manager, sales
manager, customer service manager, or whoever – can click on
a wizard button on the Microsoft Office desktop and
immediately convert Office documents into SCORM content.”
HunterStone’s THESIS line provides plug-ins to Microsoft
Office and seamlessly converts Microsoft Office and web
documents into standards-based objects with a single mouse
click. HunterStone’s THESIS provides enterprises worldwide
with one e-Learning solution to create, deliver and measure
interactive learning over the Internet and intranets.
“THESIS strategically compliments DigiLore’s Learning
Lifecycle Management® (LLM) solutions and quickly turns our
customers into subject experts”, said DigiLore’s President
Joe Russo. “The ability to rapidly deploy learning with
THESIS and instantly report on the effectiveness and
knowledge capture with DigiLore’s LLM® helps learning
enterprises focus on the exchange of knowledge among their
students, employees, customers, suppliers and partners, and
not on the technology behind the scenes.” Learning Lifecycle
Management® (LLM) does not validate the learners simply by
scores; it validates the outcome of the curriculum and
compares it to the learning objectives. This is a true test
of the ROI.
Historically, organizations embarking on web based
education initiatives invested in costly proprietary systems
or relinquished control and outsourced e-Learning content
development and distribution. With HunterStone’s THESIS
accessed directly from Learning Management Systems, content
authors regain control of their learning environment and
enterprises dramatically reduce content creation costs and
add value to their organizations’ e-Learning investment.

About DigiLore
Founded in 1999, DigiLore is the premier Learning Lifecycle
Management® (LLM) software and services provider. Learning
is not a one-time event, it is a continuous process that
needs to be measured, controlled and improved. DigiLore does
not develop content; they give you the tools to assure that
the program, and curriculum or courses are well planned,
consistently designed and delegated appropriately and
efficiently.
Learning Lifecycle Management® (LLM) is not an LMS/LCMS
that tracks the learner; it manages the enterprise-wide
learning process by its interoperability with several
different SCORM LMSs simultaneously or any available
datasource.
DigiLore is headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio. For more
