SiteScape Announces New Web-based Training Courses

Providing real-time courses for extensive training and knowledge to solve collaborative needs and facilitate ROI

Maynard, Mass. (PRWEB) February 27, 2003 -- SiteScape Inc., a leading provider of Web-based business-to-business collaboration software and services, today announced new web-based training courses. The courses will offer comprehensive, completely web-based training with support for real-time learning. SiteScape trainers work with the best-of-breed businesses to save time and reduce error in planning application roll-out thus gaining quick return on investment and solving collaborative needs.

SiteScape offers a variety of cost-effective training services from web-based lessons that can be scheduled throughout an implementation to an on-site week long intensive look at using, administering and customizing Forum or WebWorkZone. This announcement goes beyond simple web-based training by combining extensive training functionality with real-time collaboration, effectively allowing employees to manage their own learning process.

According to Tracy Upshaw, Director of Training, We strongly recommend training so that your organization saves time in administering and initializing work zones and forums for group collaboration. The faster you are up and running the quicker you will see a return on investment."

The web-based courses will prove to be effective and invaluable by being able to:

•   Seamlessly integrate web-based training whilst addressing collaboration issues
•   Simultaneously train individuals across geographic disparate locations
•   Easily provide course flexibility to set course, schedule, progress and pace
•   Virtually eliminate costs for logistics and travel

Participants can be system administrators or managers responsible for designing an easy to use, secure collaborative system or looking to deploy the product across a vast network of users.

Upshaw states that 'our modular approach means you can pick and choose the courses that meet your companys needs. While one-on-one classroom training with labs will never replace web-based training, it does offer flexibility for learning curves" and interval deployment common to enterprise installations.
