Traveling Coaches, Inc. Announces
Launch of CLASSroom, a Subscription-Based Technology Training Product
May 18, 2009, New Orleans, LA - Traveling Coaches today introduced CLASSroom, an on-line technology training program designed for smaller law firms. The announcement came at the Association of Legal Administrators Annual Conference at which Traveling Coaches is speaking on ways that firms can increase productivity while reducing overhead expense. CLASSroom is the distillation of Traveling Coaches’ years of experience providing technology training to the legal industry. The virtual CLASSroom is perfect for smaller law firms that need advanced technology training based on legal-industry best practices, but cannot afford full-time trainers.
“Our goal in developing CLASSroom is to provide smaller firms with the expert training that until now, only large firms could afford”, said Gina Buser, Chief Executive Officer of Traveling Coaches. “CLASSroom will increase a firm’s competitive advantage during these tough economic times without adding the overhead cost of trainers, training rooms and curriculum development”.
CLASSroom includes the same CLASSe (Continued Learning and Software Skills for eLearning) curriculum used by hundreds of larger law firms and over 80,000 users. The program features self-paced and instructor-led training as well as reference materials, assessments and hands-on exercises with legal documents. The content delivery, scheduling and progress reporting are powered by Profisciencē Partners’ UniversitySite, the learning management system favored by larger law firms throughout North America. UniversitySite also enables users to quickly locate answers to “how to” questions and to request future training using a wish list.
“The generic training options available to smaller firms are of little value because they don’t address the unique way law firms use technology”, said Charlene LeMaire, Chief Learning Officer of Traveling Coaches. “The virtual CLASSroom allows us to share our legal-specific curricula as well as our veteran Coaches with thousands of firms whenever and wherever they need training”.
