Draper, UT & Indianapolis, IN -- September 19, 2000 - Learnframe, today announced a partnership with MicroDigiCom the leading-edge broadband signal maximizer, to overcome hurdles faced when wirelessly transmitting media rich e-Learning products.
Learnframe, with the objective to serve the global community by providing reliable on-line education, has entered into a partnership with MicroDigiCom (MDC) to address the bandwidth challenges associated with the wireless transmission of computer based training courseware -- often heavily weighted with multimedia content.
According to Neal Westwood, senior vice-president of Learnframe, Learnframe recognized an increasing reliance on data transmission partnerships to fulfill its on-line learning objectives.
"Computer-Based-Training relies heavily on full-motion graphic and audio content which can tax wireless media transmission. MicroDigiCom's ability to transmit this type of information uses one-third the usual bandwidth. MDC is able to distill digital information to a point where concurrent data, such as e-mail can be transferred unimpeded over the remaining bandwidth," said Westwood. "Gone are the days of bandwidth trade-off considerations for transmitting e-Learning products, let the days of global wireless training begin."
Citing the "first user advantage" aspect of Learnframe's partnership with MicroDigiCom, Chairman and CEO, Tim Cook recognizes the fulfillment of the mutual objectives Learnframe and MicroDigiCom share as they strive to form the infrastructure for the expanding world of global wireless communication. "With MicroDigiCom's ability to reduce bandwidth consumption by two thirds, for the first time, multimedia-rich course content associated with Computer Based Training has become a viable product in the wireless environment."
