NetDimensions (LON:NETD; OTCQX: NETDY), a global provider of performance, knowledge, and learning management systems, has told DirectorsTalk it has partnered with Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC), one of the nation’s top academic health science centres, to better manage learning and provide content-related services for more than 18,000 learners across the organisation.
MUSC needed a more robust Learning Management System (LMS). Their previous learning solution had significant limitations for reporting and managing user groups. Accessibility was also limited to certain Internet browsers and devices.
The MUSC team gathered requirements and input from LMS stakeholders across the organisation, such as training, human resources, IT, HRIS, clinical education, and compliance. After an extensive, formal review of LMS vendors, MUSC selected NetDimensions Learning.
Albany Cromer, Learning Technologies Manager at MUSC, noted: “We have extensive reporting needs that NetDimensions Learning was able to meet. With the new LMS, we now offer a variety of training catalogues, based on areas of interest. We also added social learning with access to resources found on the Internet. And MUSC can now offer learning and education to the community thanks to our new platform – something we were not previously able to do.”
MUSC also engaged NetDimensions Interactive, the Company’s content services team, to bring a consistent style and branding to their learning development efforts across the organisation.
NetDimensions’ content experts built a set of starter templates for PowerPoint and Adobe Captivate to accelerate internal learning development. This provided MUSC with a framework to build new courses in an enhanced design in both PowerPoint and Captivate and a path to migrate existing content into the newly designed templates.
Ken Wright, President of NetDimensions Healthcare, said: “The healthcare sector continues to see significant growth. We are proud to partner with forward-thinking organisations like MUSC and help them deliver the critical training their learners need.”
