EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
 |
Dear Web Visitor:
Catalyst Learning is a workplace education and
distance learning company. Our vision is to be a national force
in the delivery of education, via technology, to adults in the
workplace. From our state-of-the-art facilities in downtown Louisville,
Kentucky, Catalyst Learning provides a variety of products and
services to support that vision.
Like all successful businesses, Catalyst Learning
has modified its offerings throughout the years to meet customer
demand. When my father and I founded the business in 1993, all
of our customers used the delivery systems available at that time
- analog video and satellite communications. Now everything is
digital and most of our work is distributed on-line.
|
Throughout this eleven-year evolution one thing has remained constant
- our desire to help customers develop cost-effective, technology-based
systems that meet their learning needs. Along the way, we’ve had the
privilege of working with organizations as varied as Outback Steakhouse,
the U.S. Department of Labor, Norton Healthcare, Jewish Hospital HealthCare Systems, the
Veterans of Foreign Wars, Marriott Hotels, and many
others.
Currently, Catalyst Learning is offering an array of
new products. These new products and services are e-learning solutions
for commercial customers, and include our Learning Management System
and Custom Content Authoring for training courses. The launch of the
Phase 2 School at Work regional program and implementation of Norton
Healthcare’s Learning Management System (LMS) are major milestones for
2004. The LMS is a software database that manages and tracks employee
training and career development across an organization. Norton Healthcare’s
9,200 employees will use the new system to access online course work,
schedule classroom training and develop individual career and learning
plans.
Catalyst Learning aspires to make a special contribution
by making education more accessible for adults in entry-level jobs and
for those navigating a change from the Industrial Age to the Information
Age. You can learn more about our efforts to build a new paradigm in
adult education by visiting www.schoolatwork.com.
Brainstorming on training and development challenges is our specialty
at HTV. Please contact us if you’d like help in customizing creative
solutions for your business organization. Louisville enjoys a lower cost-of-living than major markets. This allows us to offer very competitive pricing for E-Learning services, and Catalyst Learning’s customers
will tell you - we’re good listeners and we’ve never promised anything
that we haven’t delivered.
Sincerely,
M. Lynn Fischer
Founder and President
