VIP eLearning & Change Management Portal

With our State-of-the-Art eLearning and Change Management Portal, your company's system implementation project will be complete. Employees will log on to your company's own customized course(s), with your company's logo and color scheme.

This portal will allow end-users to allocate, track, and control their Web-based training activity classes on-site or virtually. All of the system instructional administration can be centralized or de-centralized to suit the needs of your organization. Whether your students are next door, in the next state, or overseas, VIP eLearning and Change Management Portal allows you to perform all the functions necessary to develop courses, assign students to such courses, and communicate with them either by newsletters or surveys while tracking both their progress and the project's progress.

Once students have completed their courses, you can also view and/or export several different reports and... most importantly, if you have a unique need that the portal does not currently handle, VIP provides customization support to ensure that the training tool meets your needs. VIP's eLearning and Change Management Portal was built with easy customization in mind using your existing tools. No need to spend more or pay per user.
