Solartech Delivers First Microsoft Official Distance Learning Course with Unprecedented Results

Solartech, a leading provider of live, instructor-led learning solutions has taken yet another step in demonstrating their leadership in the IT training market. Recognized by Microsoft for multiple high quality learning innovations, the company has delivered the first courses in the expanding library of offerings within the Microsoft Official Distance Learning (MODL) portfolio.

Solartechs customers are increasingly demanding innovative training solutions for their IT professionals. They need the benefits of instructor led training (ILT) but without ever increasing travel expenses and critical time away from the workplace. Also, they require the ability to acquire immediately demonstrable skills to put into practice once they return to their jobs, all without spending endless hours in a classroom or in traffic. Additionally, the demands of their jobs create frequent last minute cancellations and mid-course dropouts due to the full time, week-long commitments required from a traditional class.

Solartech needed a solution that combined the key elements of effective learning; instructor facilitation, self paced content, hands-on experience and on-line assessments to accurately track student performance and progress. Plus, they required the flexibility to fit the training around their students jobs to improve the employees work quality of life. Securing this key combination of components significantly increases the effectiveness of the learning experience with the benefit of improved retention of the subject matter when and where it matters most - back on the job.
