Case Study

Fox Learning Systems offers CD-ROM based courses for the long-term care industry, and we needed to convert our CD courses into e-learning to facilitate an international expansion. We did some research to discover that we needed a learning management system, and that our courses would need to communicate with the LMS through AICC or SCORM industry standards. As we uncovered the level of effort involved in getting courses online, we found that there were so many vendors and technologies to understand, that we didn’t know where to start. So, we contacted some e-learning consultants that we had found through our local contacts, but these consultants simply did not work out.

But then we found Solid State. Solid State came highly recommended, giving us fairly high expectations. Even so, our consultant somehow managed to exceed our expectations. He researched the market of learning management systems to find candidates for our requirements and budget, and then performed a thorough due diligence. Our dedicated consultant presented a list of options, and explained the pros and cons in a way that I could easily understand. To our surprise, he found a system at a much lower cost than what we had previously found, and further negotiated the cost to what we were willing to pay. In fact, the difference in cost easily paid for the consultant’s services.

Our consultant stuck with us throughout the project, and managed the course conversion project so that I could focus on other things. With a small team of developers, he was able to lead the project to on-time completion, and then used hands-on technical skills and thorough testing to make the courses communicate with our chosen LMS.

We have been very happy with the professionalism of Solid State. They have been ethical, highly responsive, and independent, throughout the project and in supporting us today. Solid State Learning has exceeded our expectations, and we look forward to working with them in the future
