Thank You for helping me provide our installers with such important and thorough information on ESD. Our company and our customers are the beneficiaries of the informative courses you provide. It is very rewarding to be able to present 'new' information to employees that have been in the industry for years.

Lisa B. Holloway, Installation Training Lucent Technologies

The Education and Communications Subcommittee of the Lucent Technologies ESD Leadership Team has completed its evaluation of your Learnsoft CD-ROM interactive Learning course entitled "Electrostatic Discharge for Operators". It is the most complete and correct, at least in agreeing with Lucent's ESD program, that we have seen. The Education subcommittee has, therefore, recommended it to all of the ESD Leadership Team members who represent all Lucent Technologies locations.

At Millennium Electronics, Inc., we take great pride in being the "Innovators in Technology". Our purchase of the "LearnTech" training software has helped to make sure we will continue to be just that.

The training our people have received allows us to maintain our competitive advantage by having a more educated and better-trained workforce. The product is laid out in a simple and easy to follow format, making sure that even those with little computer experience are able to get the benefit of taking the courses.

The "LearnTech" training system also allows us to be more flexible in our training schedule. Instead of having to halt large sections of production for several hours for an instructor to come in, we can now schedule individual class times and can have the rest of the assembly teams continue to work.

For ease of use, flexibility and quality of material, I have found "LearnTech" from the Automated Learning team to be a perfect solution for Millennium Electronics, Inc.'s needs.

Andrew J. Hymes, Purchasing Agent Millennium Electronics, Inc.

We have been in need of this type of training and I couldn't believe my eyes when I went through it the first time. It is exactly what we were looking for.

EMS has evaluated and used this training material and found it to be an excellent tool. Even in comparison to materials currently in use at EMS - from IPC, Pace and 3M - the Rovell material is more comprehensive and easier to use. No longer will it be necessary to tie up an instructor for hours at a time and students can work at a pace that is comfortable for them.

Bob Napoletano, Quality Manager EMS Technologies, Inc.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the service and quality that I have received while working with you and your staff over the past year. You have been second to none when it comes to flexibility for my training needs.

With the recent purchase of the "ESD Prevention for Operators", I have increased the availability I have needed for training people with various schedules, and decreased the amount of time it takes to train them. This has saved my company time, money, and most importantly, I know that the individuals that have received the training are educated and up-to-date. As technology has slipped into the workplace, and internet access has become the norm, I have found the CD's much more beneficial to my needs. This has saved my company the added expense and inherent dangers of dealing with internet access worldwide. A CD is easy to maintain, consistent in it's content, and can be easily revised/replaced.

Thank you for a job well done, and I look forward to utilizing your services in the future.

...Our individuals get on the job and demonstrate a higher skills level than those who have worked for the company for years.... One company has asked us to train their existing work force to bring them up to the level of our Temps. This speaks well for the caliber of training and learning that happens with the software. My personal belief is that companies will not only get increased productivity with shorter learning curves, but they will see quality gains as well....

This is another great training video put together by a local company. This video is intended for engineers and techs and presents the information as such. It is a series of experiments that examine the truth and mythology surrounding ESD. After viewing this video, our ESD committee comprised of managers and engineers were speechless. This video showed them how easy an ESD event can occur. A must see for anyone who takes ESD seriously!

Chris Cousineau, Quality Support MOSAID

ESD: See it!, Believe it!, Control it! Eye Opening, a wake up call in ESD myth slaying. The video enables companies to deal intelligently with the facts about ESD.

By far the most impressive aspect we have seen is the degree of knowledge obtained, and retained by the trainees after viewing the training CDs. ... during our ISO audit, the auditor interviewed several new employees. One person has been here less than 2 weeks. The auditor was impressed with the degree of knowledge and awareness that a new employee has concerning bill of materials, inventory control and tracibility (ISO9001 para# 4.9, Process Control). This knowledge was gained through the LearnTech training program.

At Logican we use the library as introductory training. All new production employees, regardless of past experience, complete the modules appropriate to their job function. This approach 'pre-conditions' the employee and allows us to proceed quickly to job specific training.

This method of training requires little preparative work on my part and can be delivered on demand, avoiding scheduling conflicts. It insures that the training is always consistent in content. My classroom and record keeping time is substantially reduced, allowing me to concentrate on surveillance, problem solving and development of other training specific to actual processes and equipment. This product [has] made my job as a trainer and training coordinator much more rewarding. ...

When I opened Intermec's (ISO 9001 Certified Company) "Skills Development Center" last year, I spent many hours researching through periodicals, ad's and catalogs for training material. There are 7 training computers in my classroom all devoted to training Intermec Technologies operation's team members in basic and advanced Electronics manufacturing skills. My goal has been to utilize these resources as "Just in time and Just enough" education in a manufacturing environment. As I'm sure you are aware, there is "push back" from production management to allowing groups of team members to leave the floor for training due to production's lost revenue and labour cost. To reduce impact on production and still provide quality training was and still is challenging. When I discovered your products through surfing the web, I had to immediately contact you and get one of your Demo CDs. After reviewing it with my Director of Operations, Managers, and Supervisor of Production I ordered my first training CD - "ESD Prevention for Operators". Its impact was, to say the least Amazing. It transformed our usual 2000 team members ESD class into "Just in time", and super awareness of ESD in the work place. I now run team members through these classes 1 or 2 at a time for an hour or so all day, every day with minimal hardship on production. As you know, I have purchased the whole suite of training CDs including Component ID, Circuit Card Assembly, Component Identification Wires, Boards & Connectors, High Reliability Solder and Rework, Mechanical Assembly and Inventory Practices. Your Company has made me look like a "hero" and I wanted you to know how much "LearnTech" has become a vital part of my training curriculum and has brought us all into the 21st Century with a powerful and comprehensive training vehicle. As I stated before, not only is it a challenge to bring quality skills development to the work place, it is equally as challenging to find the best way to deliver that training for the biggest bang for the buck. "LearnTech" has provided this for me. I want to thank you for your support and friendship over this past year and look forward to our continued personal and business relationship.

I was asked to review and ‘test drive’ a couple of the Lean E-learning Modules of the Automated Learning.

I completed the 5S and most of the Visual Controls including the testing on each module. The following are my observations.

• The on-line training was easy to understand and gave users a basic understanding of the Lean Tool that the module focused on.
• The text was easy to read and understand.
• The visuals easy to see and comprehend.
• The test questions were easy enough for operators to understand and respond to, and yet they did require the student to have a basic understanding of the material.
• I think that e-learning is a good fit for some people and those people will find this resource useful.
