Florida Company Will Develop Interactive Multimedia Training
Tools For The Helicopter Manufacturer
Sikorsky Aerospace Services has signed a memorandum of
understanding (MOU) with Job Performance Associates of
Jacksonville, FL (JPA) for the development of interactive
multimedia training products linked to Sikorsky technical
publications.
Based on specific training needs identified by SAS, JPA will
create and provide a library of web-based learning videos. These
powerful, interactive multimedia tools - known as Job Performance
Aids - provide "visual learning" unlike traditional printed and
electronic training publications. The user is able to see
step-by-step demonstrations of procedures, thereby facilitating
quick, easy learning and information retention. By streamlining
efficiencies, this visual training technology aligns with
Sikorsky's efforts to reduce direct operational costs for its
customers.
"With video demonstrations embedded in our technical manuals,
our field service representatives will be able to maintain the
highest training standards. This technology provides an innovative
way to standardize as well as reinforce on-the-job training among
our facilities worldwide. We are pleased to team with JPA to
advance training capabilities at all levels of our enterprise,"
said David Adler, president of Sikorsky Aerospace Services.
"We are very excited about the opportunity to work with Sikorsky
Aerospace Services," said Michael Leigh, chief operations officer
of Job Performance Associates. "I believe that together we are
going to dramatically change the way many companies educate and
communicate to their employees."
