Lufthansa Implements New Training Technology to Reduce Costs

Lufthansa has implemented Eedo Knowledgeware Corporation’s authoring and learning content management system to increase the productively of its training personnel.

Lufthansa intends to use Eedo’s browser-based ForceTen to help its internal trainers and subject matter experts to develop electronic course content, and reduce their need to independently commission third party agencies to do this task.

According to Eedo, its ForceTen will help Lufthansa accomplish this goal because of:

• Its intuitive interface and WYSIWYG (what-you-see-is-what-you-get) page builder that increases development productivity.  
• Its ability to freely define templates for pages, instructional tactics, and entire course structures while maintaining quality, standardization and instructional integrity.  
• Its ability to allow teams to collaborate on course material development, by easily capturing, manipulating and transferring information.  06-18-2004.
