Making Training Plans for 2007? ALD's Publishing Partners Now Offer Online Training Libraries Available for Your Entire Employee Population We know that you currently may be faced with the challenge of providing high quality e-learning that is affordable. Many organizations that took the plunge and invested in e-learning within the past few years are facing budget busting price increases when license renewal time comes around. Our publishing partners represent the best in online education - that's why we've chosen to work with them - their courses build skills and focus on the fundamentals of leadership effectiveness. Currently, these publishers each offer their online library in a special promotion that really works to YOUR advantage - the more people you have to train the better! Ask yourself two questions: What are your essential training needs? How many employees need to be trained? With those answers in mind, evaluate the two library contents listed below*, review the offers for each publisher*, then talk with ALD about the uniqueness of your situation so we can set up previews and the best subscription for you. *It's not so much about comparing the two publishers as it is about what YOU need in content and numbers of people to be trained.
