Two Billion Training Courses With PowerPoints Now Run on Mindflash iPad App
Portability and Interactivity Create a Rich Training Experience for Mobile Workers
(firmenpresse) - PALO ALTO, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/28/12 -- Mindflash, the leading online training platform for businesses, today announced the launch of its breakthrough iPad training application. For the first time, the 7.5 million PowerPoint training documents created daily (nearly two billion over the past 12 months) by businesses worldwide(1) can not only be viewed perfectly on the iPad, but can also be seamlessly integrated with training videos, quizzes and surveys to create a compelling, mobile learning experience for the nearly 20 million business users of iPads globally(2). The Mindflash iPad app is available and free for current Mindflash customers in .
"Businesses create their employee training materials in PowerPoint... period," stated Donna Wells, CEO of Mindflash. "Whether you love or hate PowerPoint, it's a fact. So the explosion of remote work and iPad business usage has created a massive gap between all of that training documentation... and the mobile workforce that needs that information on the go. Our iPad app closes that gap."
The Mindflash iPad app allows corporate trainers to easily create web and mobile training courses with no IT support required, saving them significant time and money versus live, webinar or LMS-based training. Content creators simply for a free, 30-day Mindflash trial, design a course and engage their employees via Mindflash's automated invitation, reminder and assessment tools. Employees can then access those courses on a computer anytime, anywhere they have Internet access and, as of today, on an iPad with the download of Mindflash's free app.
Key Features of the Mindflash iPad app include:
: Trainees can view training documents on their iPad exactly as they do on their desktop. PowerPoint animations, embedded videos and hyperlinks all work perfectly.
: Trainees can start a course on their office computer and pick up where they left off on their iPad while commuting home. Their time-in-course and quiz scores are recorded across all devices, in real time.
Mindflash courses seamlessly integrate PowerPoint, Word or PDF content with videos, YouTube and hyperlinked content to give trainees an interactive learning experience while working from home, the airport or the customer's office lobby -- anywhere.
Trainers get instant access to data on trainees' progress and performance across all of their desktop and mobile sessions.
"The new Mindflash app raises the bar for training on the iPad," added Wells. "For the first time, trainers can easily create interactive and mobile training courses from the files they use every day. We're delivering a capability that is critical to business success in our increasingly mobile, Bring Your Own Device environment."
Over 400,000 courses have been completed by hundreds of thousands of trainees on Mindflash since its September 2010 launch. This rapid growth has been driven by the software's award-winning ease-of-use, and by 2012 enhancements including a deeply integrated application with Yammer, the leading social enterprise network.
