Kaplan IT Learning, a division of Kaplan, Inc, has formed a strategic alliance with Future Knowledge, an Australian end-user training and change management leader, to market and support STT Trainer enterprise application training software in Australia and New Zealand.
"Our research has shown that organisations are searching for a system simulation training solution that will scale to their on-going training needs across multiple applications to ensure they get real value from their information systems," said Steven Zan, Managing Director of Future Knowledge.
"We chose STT Trainer as our offering in the Australasian market, because it will provide customers who are implementing or upgrading their enterprise applications with a unique training solution in terms of its flexibility, scalability and the quality of learning delivery."
The alliance will cover Australia and New Zealand where Future Knowledge will support Kaplan IT Learning`s STT Trainer in its aggressive expansion into the Australasian region. Future Knowledge will market and implement the STT solution, as well as provide first-line support to local STT Trainer clients, including Pilkington, New Zealand Department of Corrections and DBT Australia.
"Their extensive experience and existing relationships in the enterprise applications market in Australia and New Zealand ideally position Future Knowledge to represent Kaplan IT Learning and support our expansion in the region," said Chip Schuneman, President of Kaplan IT Learning. "As a mature technology market, there is a growing recognition in Australia and New Zealand that the successful deployment of enterprise applications requires investment in change management and end-user training. This makes the Australasian market a top priority for us in our international expansion strategy."
