NetDimensions Announces Partnership with Gilkron Ltd, to Deliver Legal Courses
using EKP
June 25, 2009, Hong Kong -NetDimensions (London Stock Exchange, AIM: NETD), a
global provider of performance, knowledge and learning management
systems, announces that it has signed a partnership agreement with Gilkron
Limited, a provider of interactive online courseware created by leading experts
and professionals -- for professionals.
Tim Gilkison, Director at Gilkron says: "We provide professionals with the
relevant legal or other knowledge they need to maintain their competitive edge
and meet their professional or other learning obligations through our
Novacourses website."
Novacourses is powered by NetDimensions' Enterprise Knowledge Platform (EKP), a
robust, secure and multi-lingual enterprise learning management system.
"EKP enabled us to create a powerful yet easy to use tool that we believe will
benefit lawyers and other professionals everywhere," explains Gilkison.
Jay Shaw, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer at NetDimensions notes:
"We welcome Gilkron to our unique global partner network. As with the
partnerships we have with many excellent organizations, our collaboration with
Gilkron has yielded unexpected benefits."
Gilkron's innovations demonstrate the flexibility and power of EKP such as:
* Automatic enrollment of all new learners in an online course that teaches them
how to use the system and
* A user interface that makes use of graphical help screens designed specifically
with busy professionals in mind.
"Gilkron has shown us what else EKP can do with just a little added
imagination," adds Shaw.
Enabling compliance to mandatory professional requirements
Leading in-house counsels, private legal practitioners and corporate decision
makers use Novacourses to comply with their continuing professional development
(CPD) or continuing legal education (CLE) obligations.
Gilkron Director Ron Yu explains: "All lawyers regularly assess current and
future knowledge needs relevant to their responsibilities, then plan and
implement ongoing programs of training and development to address these needs."
Lawyers in jurisdictions such as Hong Kong are exceptionally focused on CPD or
CLE. Hong Kong enforces mandatory annual CPD or CLE requirements and any lawyer
who fails to meet his or her CPD or CLE obligations cannot practice law in the
territory.
"Novacourses is the platform where legal professionals will find unique
courseware such as legal Mandarin, intellectual property valuation, ongoing
obligations of AIM companies, comparisons of US and Chinese patent regimes,
alternative dispute resolution in Asia, corporate rescue in China, protection of
trade secrets in Asia and marketing for lawyers on a single site," notes Yu.
