Two industry leaders combine forces to create new approach to business learning
MINNEAPOLIS, MN and EAST LYME, CT - By combining the global best-practice content of The Summit Group with the superior design competency of InSync Training, this new alliance delivers the optimal blend of high-impact learning, with live classroom and distance technologies.
“A cartel of competencies” is how The Summit Group’s CEO Phil Styrlund describes the new relationship. Summit’s proven value-creation principles, combined with the exceptional strength of InSync’s design savvy create the ultimate tailored learning experience.
Given the economy and changing business needs, Summit and InSync saw the advantages of joining forces to lead the remote learning front beginning in 2009. “Our clients are seeing the power of blended technology to reduce travel and cut overall costs, while simultaneously elevating the user experience and outcome,” Styrlund adds.
“Combining our strengths with Summit’s content and clients provides an amazing opportunity for us to create a new standard for tailored learning,” InSync’s President Jennifer Hofmann says. In their forthcoming book, “Tailored Learning”, Jennifer Hofmann and Nanette Miner articulate the keys to highly effective learning outcomes in the new global context of eliminating time and distance as barriers to knowledge exchange.
