West Des Moines, Iowa, September 8, 2010 – GeoLearning, Inc.,
provider of the leading Software as a Service (SaaS) GeoMaestro Learning
Management System (LMS) and comprehensive Managed Learning Services , announced today that the nation's third largest home warranty company
is utilizing the GeoMaestro™ LMS to deliver information faster and
cheaper to its employees spread across 27 states.
With a business spanning coast to coast, Old
Republic Home Protection (ORHP) found that it needed to improve its process of
getting critical information to customer service agents. With an eye on
reducing overall costs, ORHP began searching for an LMS that would help them
reach these goals. After reviewing and comparing several hosts, GeoMaestro
stood out above the rest.
Previously, ORHP's new hires
and employees attended instructor-led training courses at a central location to
complete training and garner new product information. This process proved
costly, not only in the amount of time spent training and manually enrolling
people in courses, but monetarily with costs incurred through travel, lodging
and transportation.
"This was critically important to our organization and one of the
key reasons we selected GeoLearning as our provider. We had to lower costs and
decrease the load on our resources while increasing the effectiveness of our
training," says Kevin Dahlstrom, manager of training and performance
support for ORHP.
Christine de Mateo, learning and development specialist for ORHP, adds,
"The GeoMaestro LMS has allowed us to save hours of trainer time by
grouping classes together and we've also saved on the various costs associated
with training. Its ease of use makes it virtually hassle free for us, which
allows us to learn more about the various capabilities of the LMS over
time."
