Desire2Learn Incorporated (Desire2Learn), a leading provider of enterprise teaching and learning platforms, and Aimetis Corporation (Aimetis), a global leader in intelligent IP video management software, recently announced their partnership in delivering training to Aimetis clients.

Aimetis Symphony, the company's flagship offering, combines robust video management and video analytics in one unified software platform. Partners from over 100 countries have access to online training for Aimetis Symphony, which led to a need for an eLearning platform that handles clients' growing needs. Aimetis will begin delivery of Desire2Learn platform-based courses this month and will expand its offerings throughout the year.

"Through the use of the Desire2Learn platform, we will offer Authorization training courses without the need for a live instructor present each time," says Jamie Hari, Manager of Customer Support, Aimetis Corp. "With 24/7 access to the materials and better quality training options, Aimetis partners will be more familiar with our technology, and ultimately make them more successful in their solution design."

Aimetis customers from around the globe will be able to access these training courses. Various features of Desire2Learn's platform, including web accessibility, course management and flexibility, will provide Aimetis' customers with easy navigation through the course modules. In the future, eLearning will also be available in Spanish, Chinese and German. Such elements of the eLearning solution cater to the parallel product excellence commitment of both Desire2Learn and Aimetis.

"We're definitely keen on having Aimetis use our platform to ensure its clients receive the ultimate learning experience," states John Baker, President & CEO, Desire2Learn. "We pride ourselves on being a client-focused company, which complements Aimetis' focus on quality and relationships. We're looking forward to our involvement with Aimetis as they further their training options."
