Multiple needs dictated Accountants Inc.'s elearning initiatives including:

• The geographic distribution of their branch offices
• A significant increase in new employee hiring in the field offices
• A desire to take advantage of the opportunity for "any time" learning/training
• The need to provide training content that could be easily changed/updated without necessitating re-distribution of paper documents
• Providing a method to efficiently and effectively respond to the training needs of new hires who come aboard typically one at a time in the branch offices

AI's goal and objectives were to:

• Provide basic sales training and knowledge foundation for new employees
• Integrate existing first generation e-learning and other training products into the soon-to be launched corporate intranet
• Develop a foundation for future content and course offerings
• Create content that could be updated easily and without costly production and distribution requirements
• Provide a method for measuring and tracking training completion

Accountants Inc. chose WBT Manager as its LMS. Integrity also created custom courses using Macromedia's Authorware eLearning authoring tool.

Accountants Inc.'s primary objectives have been accomplished and in the future they plan to add more custom course content as well as deploy off-the-shelf content via WBT Manager.

Rita Moore, Accountants Inc.'s Education and Development Manager said, "Working with Integrity eLearning was a pleasure. Like any collaboration it got better and better over time. Given that the bulk of our communication was electronic, it was amazing what we were able to accomplish. Integrity's professionalism, capability, knowledge, humor and general flexibility complemented by their can-do attitude and a willingness to work with and to "teach" a technological novice was phenomenal. eLearning solutions and options abound, but finding ones that work especially for a smaller company both the size and culture of Accountants Inc. and ones that are managed and supported by people who are as committed as Integrity do not."
