Generation21 Learning Systems Announces New Customer Win With Simplot
Golden, Colo., March 26, 2004 — Generation21 Learning Systems, a leading developer of enterprise learning software, has been selected by Simplot, one of the largest privately held firms in the country, with annual sales of more than $3 billion.
Simplot, an agribusiness company based in Boise, ID, selected Generation21 Enterprise to facilitate compliance and safety training for learners at all North American locations. The system will also provide a company-wide resource for skill and knowledge management.
The majority of our hourly population does not have easy access to computers. Our other challenge is that this is our first large scale e-learning initiative, so this will be a significant culture change for us," said Camille Andersen, organizational development leader at Simplot. Generation21s ability to track instructor-led training, the ability to deploy enterprise-wide while still maintaining location flexibility, the possibility for easy transition into e-learning in the future were all key in our decision."
The Generation 21 Enterprise software will be hosted by Generation21 and served to Simplot learners at all North American locations.
Generation21 pioneered the use of Universal Knowledge Objects — nuggets" of right-sized information — and continues to enhance enterprise learning with innovations including performance support with context-based retrieval of knowledge outside of the classroom and on-the-job. Generation21 allows organizations to capture and share knowledge to generate measurable results in improved efficiency and productivity by allowing a companys knowledge base to be easily accessed by employees in diverse locations, thus allowing learning to be constant.
