November 17, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
Learning Light, a non-profit organisation that builds relationships between learning technology researchers, suppliers, buyers and learners providing learner-centric information to encourage the growth of learning technologies, has teamed-up with SRI Consulting Business Intelligence (SRIC-BI) (www.sric-bi.com) in the US to bring its members a raft of valuable market information and data on e-learning.

Learning Light members now have access to nearly 90 business intelligence reports on the world of e-learning. These valuable reports cover a broad spectrum of topics with a depth that gives real insight and value, covering such diverse areas as outsourcing and service-orientated architectures, through to virtual worlds and web 2 technologies.

Steven Hill, Head of Research Services said: “I am delighted that we’re able to provide this service to our members.

“SRIC-BI has a reputation for quality research and well-presented reports. Learning Light members will gain valuable insights and information about e-learning that has previously been available only to members of SRIC-BI's LoD service.”

Eilif Trondsen PhD and SRIC-BI Program Director stated: "We are very pleased to be working with Learning Light to make SRIC-BI's global Learning on Demand research available to Learning Light clients as it continues to expand its services throughout Europe and beyond.”
