Jeff Harris, Trivantis' VP of Marketing, was recently featured as a guest columnist in Chief Learning Officer (CLO) Magazine, a highly respected publication that focuses on solutions for enterprise productivity in the enterprise learning market. Jeff delved into the topic of learning solutions in his article titled, "E-Learning Strategy: Repurposing Content." Jeff discusses how learning organizations that employ e-learning delivery methods often must repurpose content to be used in multiple ways by multiple audiences. He also goes into detail about how developing a strategy for repurposing this content will help reap benefits and drive high-quality learning.

• The Elapsed Time Variable now updates itself when published to HTML.

• Drag and Drop Questions can now be created when images are greater than the page size.

• Navigation buttons now react during page loading in HTML.

• Text bullets display correct color/font when an embedded hyperlink spans multiple lines.

• The first Hot Spot item now handles feedback.

In early October, Trivantis teamed up with Pfizer to present a free informative webinar titled, "Can You Really Measure Initial ROI? Pfizer Did and So Can You." This engaging event, presented by M. Shawn Stiles, Global Training Project Manager at Pfizer Global Research and Development, received rave reviews from attendees. Shawn explained how one group within Pfizer succeeded in the transition from classroom learning to e-learning and shared his experience and expertise in measuring ROI as it relates to e-learning.
