Blended learning at Belgacom

Before attending specialised trouble-shooting training sessions, staff at Belgacom now
study learntelecoms e-learning courses.
"The advantage of the e-learning formula for the introduction training was that
at the end of the e-learning courses all participants in the "advanced" module
had the same level of knowledge. This was greatly appreciated by the
participants"
- Gino Van de Sompel, training and development consultant at Belgacom

Cost effective training for Jersey Telecom

"As a communications service provider based "off shore" we have found that
the PTT e-learning courses provide high quality and excellent content training
to our engineers without the need to arrange expensive flights out of the island
- truly cost effective"
- Bill Barker, training and development manager, Jersey Telecom

Real world training for eircom

and bit rates, they are obviously written by telecoms professionals with real
world insight and the interactions are well thought out"
