AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF CRITICAL-CARE NURSES UTILIZES AWARD-WINNING LEARNING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM TO PROVIDE ONLINE TRAINING FOR OVER 500 HOSPITAL CLIENTS
SUNRISE, FL – November 17, 2008 -- Learn.com®, the leader in on-demand workforce development and productivity, announced today that the American Association of Critical-Care Nurses (AACN), the largest specialty nursing organization in the world, located in Aliso Viejo, CA, has implemented an award-winning learning management system to provide on-demand continuing education for nurses at over 500 hospital clients.
"Formerly, we were using another service provider who provided a solution that had become stagnant over the years, and we had come to the point where we had outgrown them. Their solution was not SCORM-compliant and could not support our future needs," said David Ward, E-learning Manager, American Association of Critical-Care Nurses.
The key reason AACN selected Learn.com and the LearnCenter® platform was the range of functionality it provides. The LearnCenter platform, which is SCORM 1.2/2004 compliant, enables the association to deliver on-demand asynchronous certifications content to critical care nurses whenever they require training.
"AACN operates over 500 LearnCenter sites through our hospital clients who contract with us for their online courses. The LearnCenter platform also provides learners with virtual instructor-led training via WebEx. AACN uses Flash to author all of the organization's learning content. Future goals include the expansion of its training curriculum to offer a comprehensive blended learning program to our nurses," added Ward.
