NetDimensions (AIM: NETD; OTCQX: NETDY), a global provider of performance, knowledge, and learning management systems, and ApprenNet, an innovative interactive learning application provider, today announced a new partnership that will enable organisations to take learning to a new level via efficient and compelling peer-to-peer interactions"Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn"

NetDimensions Learning is an award-winning, multilingual Learning Management System that enables organisations to manage the entire learning and development process and to offer a highly personalised learning environment. The NetDimensions Learning platform is widely recognised for its ability to support any kind of learning modality and to integrate with any number of new learning tools and applications.

ApprenNet provides a new and innovative cloud-based application for delivering role-play exercises online and asynchronously, thereby enabling learners to collaborate closely together and learn from each other. Learners practice discrete skills iteratively, apply self knowledge, and share best practices in a highly interactive, socially collaborative, and rubric measured environment.

Scaling interactive learning role-play and increasing ROI

This new partnership focuses on ensuring a high return on investment on corporate learning. The ApprenNet solution increases learner engagement with video and improves learning efficacy while saving on classroom instructional time and reducing employee time away from the job.
