Sunrise, FL (PRWEB) June 22, 2007 -- Learn.com®, the leader in on-demand workforce development and productivity announced today that Weichert, Realtors, a family of full-service real estate and financial services companies, was the subject of a recent case study titled "Evolution of a Blended-Learning Program for Sales Associates".

Sales associates use the LearnCenter portal to access e-learning courses and view tips and strategies for using unique Weichert tools, as well as a multitude of performance support tools. Sales office managers use the portal to get best practices, which are tools and information they need to manage their offices and develop their sales associates' skills.
