WolfBlock Purchases Traveling Coaches CLASS and CLASSe
April 16, 2007 DALLAS, TX - Traveling Coaches,
the nationally recognized training, application integration and consulting
partner to law firms and corporate legal departments, today announced that
Philadelphia-based Wolf, Block, Schorr & Solis-Cohen, LLP, has purchased
Traveling Coaches CLASS and CLASSe content for the Firm’s on-going
technology training program.
Traveling Coaches’ industry-leading CLASS (Continued Learning and Software
Skills) program is a collection of high quality, modular, and legal specific
technology training materials. Since its introduction three years ago, the
wildly popular CLASS program has been implemented by over 100 law firms and
corporate legal departments consisting of more than 42,000 users. As CLASS
provides the materials for traditional classroom instruction, CLASSe
facilitates a different style of training: just-in-time e-learning. A
collection of short, interactive, online lessons called CLASSe Briefs, this
program is ideal for busy attorneys and staff that need to learn how to
accomplish specific tasks “on the fly.”
“We loved that Traveling Coaches had a wide variety of legal specific
applications. It provided all levels for software which was great for us
since we are implementing the second phase for one of our major software
applications this spring where we plan to utilize CLASS and CLASSe
materials,” said Natalie Alesi, WolfBlock Manager of Training and Curriculum
Development. “In addition, it was important for WolfBlock to easily
customize the materials for our environment and culture. Since the eLearning
modules were developed in Captivate, they couldn’t be quicker or simpler to
edit. In an industry where time is money, we can quickly customize an entire
course by department or practice group without starting from scratch, truly
meeting the needs and skill level of our audience. Ultimately, we can
continue to provide up to date and continuous learning in a world where
technology is ever changing.”
CLASS currently consists of 139 classroom modules covering topics from
Microsoft Office applications to document management systems and Word
productivity tools. The materials are customizable and designed to be used
for university-style training programs. CLASSe Briefs are drawn from CLASS
curriculum and offer the same high level of quality and consistency. By
purchasing both products, WolfBlock will be able to provide end-users with a
consistent training message through the instructor, reference materials and
e-learning lessons.
“We are excited to add WolfBlock to our list of Philadelphia customers,”
added Charlene LeMaire, Director of Training and User Support Services for
Traveling Coaches. “We look forward to working with the firm to integrate
CLASS and CLASSe into their on-going education program.”
