Wednesday 1st May 2001, Otley, West Yorkshire. Jessop Gosling associates proudly announce the creation of projectlearning.net. As a new and more effective way to develop the skills and understanding required to maximise the potential of Microsoft® Project, projectlearning.net offers the benefits of traditional classroom based courses coupled with the flexibility of online and distance based learning. We have already seen working patterns change, with tele-working and hot desking" says Andy Jessop -- partner at Jessop Gosling associates, and our delegates wanted to see the way they learn evolve. projectlearning.net is the culmination of over a year of hard work in providing a new generation of learning toolset".

Central to this innovative approach is Project Mentor. Designed to leverage an individuals existing skills and to deliver new concepts and techniques Project Mentor is a self paced learning aid for Microsoft Project 2002 and offers integration within the software. The product offers reassurance to the user that they are making tangible progress and can offer a route leading to Microsoft Office User Specialist (MOUS) certification. As principle author of the forthcoming MOUS certification for Microsoft Project 2002 Andy is keen to demonstrate Jessop Gosling associates expertise in this area, Project Mentor is more than just a teaching aid -- it offers our delegates knowledge through understanding. All the modules and the lessons contained within them provide step by step confirmation of the techniques and methods learnt with online explanations of terminology immediately to hand."

On line learning is not seen as a panacea, however, as Andy stresses the important factor here is the confidence the delegate can gain from reinforcing their learning in a classroom or in a company setting. Users can choose to learn or top up their knowledge by choosing topics offered on a comprehensive and flexible open course schedule or have courses developed for in house delivery". In addition for users who already have a skill set projectlearning.net offers a range of workshops to enhance existing knowledge -- the facilitated master classes we offer allow delegates to share their experiences with a peer group. This allows them to benchmark their processes and gain new insights".
