CERTPOINT released the latest version of its learning management software suite, VLS Suite 6.0. Offering new capabilities such as enhanced e-Commerce, Collaboration and Informal Learning, Performance Management, Ad hoc Reporting, and new Data Import and Export Utilities, this VLS Suite gives the user full ability to customize, track, and facilitate learning through one platform.
When designing VLS Suite 6.0, CERTPOINT’s Senior Development Team incorporated virtual learning with ‘real world’ capabilities. One capability that incorporates these two aspects is the enhanced e-Commerce capability. This element of VLS Suite 6.0 offers administrators the ability to assign different prices for different groups of users of the same event. Payments can be processed with ease using a credit card, PayPal, or invoicing. The new e-Commerce feature also enables the user to charge for access, impose account expiration dates and offer limited trial periods.
Ad hoc Reporting is another new capability available in the latest version of CERTPOINT’s learning management suite. Using Ad hoc Reporting, administrators can design and distribute reports with charts and graphs. CERTPOINT will offer a “Report Makers’ Hotline” where clients can call to have custom reports created for them.
Recording information is easier with new Data Importing and Exporting Utilities. Using these enhancements, administrators can collect data in Excel sheets and import it into VLS Suite 6.0. After the data has been collected and imported, administrators have the ability to track and evaluate users with the performance management functions. This component gives managers and administrators the necessary edge to track competencies and goals for each user and gather multi-rater assessment information for users.
Keeping with the ‘real world’ product concept, VLS Suite 6.0 offers Informal Learning and Collaboration tools. Designated contributors are given the power to create and manage blogs, wikis, and file libraries. After these “subject matter experts” publish content using these tools, users can read and comment on their entries.
“This version is a state of the art product with a rich set of Web 2.0 capabilities, tightly integrated within the entire suite. VLS Suite 6.0 is unmatched on the market considering its breadth and depth of fully integrated functionality in the space of Learning Management, Performance Management, and Competency Management,” said Andrzej Pienczykowski, Chief Technology Officer at CERTPOINT.
