Brown Rudnick Purchases Traveling Coaches' Office 2010 Rollout Kit
March 2, 2011, DALLAS, TX - Traveling Coaches, the nationally recognized training, application integration and consulting partner to law firms, today announced that the international law firm of Brown Rudnick LLP purchased the Office 2010 Rollout Kit (ROK) to ensure rapid and complete user adoption of Office 2010 and Windows 7.
Based on Traveling Coaches’ renowned best practices for user adoption of complex technology, the Office 2010 Rollout Kit is a collection of marketing, pre-learning, classroom and floor support tools which are legal-specific and delivered in soft copy for easy customization by law firms.
“Partnering with Traveling Coaches has allowed our training group to spend more time developing and presenting learning programs for the Firm’s busy lawyers and staff,” said Julia Forbes, Brown Rudnick Manager of Training and Application Services. “The ROK serves as an extension of our training initiative helping to guide us through the different phases of our Windows 7/Office 2010 (and ECM) upgrade. Because the ROK saves valuable planning time, we can devote more energy to delivering a desktop system that will enable our lawyers to continue providing the kind of superior client service for which the Firm is known.”
The Office 2010 Rollout Kit is the newest addition to Traveling Coaches’ popular collection of law firm learning products. The previous Office 2007 Rollout Kit set the standard for law firms wishing to ensure rapid and complete user adoption of Microsoft Office. The 2010 Kit includes a rollout roadmap; learning plans and a tool for estimating the duration of custom training classes; technology commercials; WOW! Sessions; pre-learning with CLASSe™ E-Learning briefs; master training guide; hands-on exercises with legal documents; quick reference cards; FAQs; personal coaching plans and more.
“Our experience with hundreds of firms is that complete adoption of Microsoft Office 2010 requires a comprehensive communication and education strategy including myriad ‘learning moments’ to accommodate the various roles and learning styles in a law firm,” said Charlene LeMaire, co-founder and Chief Learning Officer for Traveling Coaches. “Our Office Rollout Kits are the distillation of our proven best practices delivered in a format law firms can immediately implement to ensure success.”
