TwinStar Credit Union Launches "Bright Solutions University", A Learning Management System Powered By Travitor MediaLas Vegas, NV, Jul 28, 2009 (PRWeb.com via COMTEX) -- Travitor Media (http://www.travitor.com) announces that TwinStar Credit Union, the 8th largest credit union in Washington, with more than 300 employees and 21 branches, has launched Bright Solutions University. This innovative online learning portal will be powered by Travitor Media's Achieve(TM) 4.9.9 Learning Management System, a management suite designed to centrally manage the process of creating, delivering, and tracking personalized training programs for your workforce. In announcing the launch of the University, TwinStars' Employee Development Manager Juliann Chapman commented, "We researched the solutions offered by other providers and decided that the Travitor learning management system not only offered the features we wanted from an LMS, but would also be easy to use. We needed a system that would enable a truly blended learning solution allowing us to track training provided by various methods including instructor-led training." THE CHALLENGE The training department at TwinStar Credit Union was faced with the challenge of managing compliance training requirements and ongoing employee development plans. The company began to search for a software system that could help increase efficiencies and make it easier for both the company and employees to keep up-to-date. To manage and monitor training efficiently requires the ability to automate the recertification of required training, provide the ability to define core competency requirements, and provide the ability to track and manage both classroom-based training events as well as online training. THE SOLUTION Travitor Media's Achieve(TM) 4.9.9 learning management system is used to track core competencies and compliance-based training. Personalized training plans can be built based on the training needed in a particular job role or position. The plans are automated and consist of one or more qualifications attached to the job(s), job category, and group(s) an employee is associated with. Personalized, learning content that satisfies the stated training requirements is automatically assigned by the system. This is done by assigning the required content (e-Learning courses, instructor-led classes, assessments, documents, etc.) with the qualification requirements. The system also features both standard and customizable reports that allow training administrators to measure completions and identify skill gaps for individuals or groups of students within the organization. The Classroom and Event Management component allows TwinStar the ability to manage instructor-led training classes whether it is offered in-house or through an external vendor. Web-based reporting and features include the ability to publish class schedules, generate class rosters, show attendance records, track class completions, deliver online testing and much more. The Learning Management Suite offers a robust course library with over 500 online training courses covering everything from certified Microsoft desktop application training to business skills training to management training. The Banking solution includes courses that are job-relevant. Topics include regulatory compliance, banking fundamentals, teller training, and more. As a true enterprise solution, the system's extensive SSO (Single Sign On) component allows the integration with a central HR system to provide an automated way to keep the LMS system up-to-date as new employees arrive and current employees change positions. "As organizations deal with cutting costs, developing and retaining top-performing employees is an essential component to success and should not be overlooked," said Travis Paternostro of Travitor Media.
