October 4, 2005
New York City - October 4, 2005 - Articulate, the market leader in rapid learning technology, received two Best of Show Awards, one for content authoring and a second for assessment tools at last week's TechLearn conference in Las Vegas. The awards, sponsored by Questex Media Group, Inc., were given to products with the best potential to change the future of the learning and training industry. Articulate's Presenter 5.0 and Quizmaker 2.0 products were judged on characteristics such as ease of integration, implementation, system quality, customer service, and return on investment.
TechLearn is a practitioner-led conference for business, education, and government leaders using learning and training to develop workforce skills, further professional development, and engage customers and partners. Exhibitors within TechLearn's Learning Showcase were invited to submit up to two products for awards consideration. Judges for Best of Show Awards were from organizations such as the U.S. Coast Guard, Wells Fargo, University of Southern California, and Philip Morris USA.
Articulate was the only company to win two awards. Articulate Presenter, the most widely used content authoring tool on the market, helps subject matter experts and learning professionals create Flash-based e-learning courses with narration and interactivity using PowerPoint. Articulate Quizmaker is a complementary product for the creation of Flash-based quizzes, assessments and surveys. The products can be purchased individually or together in Articulate's Rapid e-Learning Studio, an integrated package that includes Presenter, Quizmaker, and a template kit containing 75 professionally designed PowerPoint templates for presenting virtually any kind of information.
"This recognition underscores the innovation and market relevance of our product line," said Adam Schwartz, president of Articulate. "Our products are designed around a common business need — timely learning and communication resources that can leverage the immense knowledge assets within every organization. Articulate puts tremendous power into the hands of subject matter experts and learning professionals alike."
"The quality of submissions for TechLearn's inaugural Best of Show Awards made the selection process challenging," said Christina Condos, group director of technology events for Questex Media. "All of our judges were practitioners and worked through hands-on demonstrations to make selections. I'm confident the winners represent some of the most cutting-edge solutions in the learning and training industry today."
