Warrenville, IL (PRWEB) June 3, 2005 -- CourseAvenue, the industry's leading provider of team-based rapid eLearning technologies and services, today announced that it has successfully completed a custom course and its integration with elearning provider MindLeaders web administration for NASCO, a system and services company dedicated exclusively to health benefits processing for BlueCross® and BlueShield® Plans nationwide.

In addition to CourseAvenues product suite, TeamAvenue, which is an on-line collaborative, rapid eLearning tool, CourseAvenue has a team of experts who develop and create custom courseware that is both AICC and SCORM compliant. With TeamAvenue, CourseAvenue is able to create courses in a fraction of the time typically associated with custom courseware development, and courses can also be launched and tracked from any existing Learning Management System (LMS) or tracking system, including MindLeaders.

Being faced with the challenge of having to rapidly develop a course in ten days that was within our budget and could easily integrate with our existing eLearning environment, CourseAvenue was the only vendor who could fully meet our needs," said Michael Haynes, Director of Human Performance Development of NASCO. We are quite pleased with our selection in CourseAvenue and look forward to effectively training and testing our entire staff on a custom HIPAA compliance course."

CourseAvenue has not only revolutionized rapid eLearning by including a team-based approach, but we are also leaders and experts in our field, giving us leverage when it comes to creating custom courses," said Peter Altieri, CEO of CourseAvenue. In working with NASCO on custom courseware, we can continue with the eLearning revolution by creating dynamic and interactive courses that engage the learner."

CourseAvenue was able to build and deploy this course organization-wide in two weeks, allowing NASCO to meet their regulatory compliance needs on time without investing in a separate launching, tracking and reporting system.," said Jennifer Dahler, Director of Sales at CourseAvenue. This is exciting news for all MindLeaders clients who are not ready to purchase a full-blown Learning Management System, but still have a need to deliver internally or externally-developed custom content quickly and cost effectively."
