“Toolwire’s vision is both comprehensive and realistic,” said Alan Bellinger, Executive Consultant at the Learning & Performance Institute, “and the organisation is performance ready to deliver against its challenging goals. This is a period of substantial change in the way in which Learning Technologies can be applied to meet the knowledge and skills needs of enterprises within both public and private sectors. Toolwire is a true thought leader within that domain.”

Sarah Frame, EMEA Director at Toolwire, commented, “We are delighted to be accredited by LPI again and to sponsor its forthcoming Fellows’ Symposium event. Toolwire shares LPI’s commitment to improving the effectiveness of workplace learning, which we have demonstrated through our innovative learning tools and customer support. Online Experiential Learning is a relatively new approach in Europe, but it is already proving to play an important part in helping learners to acquire new skills in a safe and controlled environment. Many organisations are finding our interactive simulations particularly helpful in delivering complex or sensitive content because they give learners the opportunity to practice before performing, to build confidence, and to improve competency.”
