Mountain View, CA –
February 3, 2010 – Expertus (www.expertus.com), a global provider
of services that optimize the business impact of learning, today released a
presentation that explores Web 2.0 learning portals as a way to better reach
employees, customers and external stakeholders. With a distinct focus on
the extended enterprise, the presentation offers a view into what organizations
are doing – and where they’re headed – using the power of learning portals. To

In a study conducted by Expertus and Training Industry, Inc., researchers found
that within the next two years, 45 percent of survey respondents plan to
upgrade their existing learning portal and 14 percent plan to launch a new
learning portal. Given the broad interest in this technology, Expertus created
a presentation that explores the practical uses of portals. The 22-minute
presentation, narrated by industry expert Kathleen Waid, offers research findings,
definitions and real-life examples.
“Learning
portals have taken on a new definition and are no longer just a website for
training,” said Mohana Radhakrishnan, VP of Client Services for Expertus.
“Companies can jump right into on-demand, Web 2.0 learning and effectively
reach all learners if their portal is appropriately designed.”
