(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Oslo, Norway - 27 August, 2010 - Edvantage group, a Managed Learning Services
company and e-learning provider, announces that G4S, the world's leading
international security group, is the 200th organisation to select Learning
Gateway, its SaaS (Software-as-a-Service)based Learning Management System (LMS).
This milestone shows that Learning Gateway is a leader in the LMS market and
that Managed Learning Services is preferred by large and small organisations
seeking to increase productivity, drive performance and share knowledge.
Edvantage group will provide over 7,000 employees at G4S Secure Solution AS and
G4S Aviation Security AS in Norway and Sweden with Learning Gateway and other
managed learning services including content on-demand and CourseBuilder, content
authoring tool. G4S employees will gain access to leadership courses and
on-the-job training opportunities that enhance their careers and enable them to
provide clients with the best security solutions in the industry.
Charles Skipperstøen, Learning and Development Manager, G4S Secure Solutions
comments, "We were looking for a complete learning solution that pulls together
technology, content and service. It had to be flexible and support many
languages. G4S has about 600,000 employees around the world in 110 countries and
2,500 of them are working in Norway, from Hammerfest in the north to Lindesnes
in the south. We chose Learning Gateway because it was the best LMS in terms of
functionality and ease-of-use. Our first step is to collaborate with our offices
in Scandinavia so that we share our locally created content. We will use
Edvantage group's services to take our learning programmes to the next level."
Since Edvantage group launched the Professional and Enterprise Editions of
Learning Gateway in early 2009, there was a growth of over 30% in sales in 2009
followed with a 22% strong revenue growth in the first six months of 2010. Its
200 clients cover a diverse range of organisations in the public and private
sectors including small and mid-sized businesses and global enterprises.
"The LMS market is dynamic and highly competitive market," says Thomas Berglund,
CEO Edvantage group. "It's a tremendous feeling to provide services to 200
organisations and we will use all our experience to help G4S reach its goals. We
are pleased that our Managed Learning Service strategy to provide organisations
with a 'one-stop-shop' for learning has been such a success."
