GeoLearning and HunterStone Announce Partnership
THESIS simplifies SCORM Compliant eLearning
Development for GeoLearning’s Customers
Columbia,
SC
– HunterStone Inc., a leading provider of e-Learning and IT tools for
Microsoft environments, announced today a strategic
agreement with GeoLearning that offers GeoLearning’s
customers a solution to rapidly deploy SCORM eLearning
courses.
Through
the agreement, GeoLearning content creators now have access
to purchase HunterStone’s THESIS software to rapidly convert
existing content to eLearning and develop eLearning objects
using familiar Microsoft Office applications.
The Sharable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM)
compliant learning modules can be stored, tagged and
accessed on an “as needed” basis from content libraries and
launched and tracked in GeoLearning’s
GeoMaestro and GeoExpress
Learning Management Platforms.
“Through this strategic agreement, HunterStone increases the
distribution network of THESIS and gives GeoLearning
customers the means to develop 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 anyone else using GeoLearning’s Learning
Management Platform can easily use THESIS to convert any web
presentable content to SCORM or use familiar Microsoft
Office applications such as Word, PowerPoint, and Excel to
create SCORM content.”
“Many
of our customers have a wealth of legacy training content
which they need to make available as courses to their
training audiences,” said Dr. Paul Schneider, Product
Manager, GeoLearning. “With THESIS they can, in a few simple
steps, rapidly convert MS Office and non-compliant web based
content into SCORM compliant e-learning courses that run and
track in their
GeoExpress and
GeoMaestro LMS.”
HunterStone's THESIS product line provides plug-ins to
Microsoft Office and converts any web presentable content
into standards-based SCORM objects with a few simple mouse
clicks. Available in twelve languages, HunterStone's THESIS
provides GeoLearning users worldwide with one eLearning
solution to create, deliver and measure interactive learning
over the internet and intranets.
