VIA Exhibiting at ASTD 2013 International Conference & Exposition, May 19-22

PORTLAND, Ore. - April 16, 2013 - PRLog -- VIA and its specialty divisions, VIA Learning and VIA MobilePaks, will be demonstrating innovative learning solutions to increase engagement and retention at the ASTD 2013 International Conference & Exposition at the Dallas Convention Center in Dallas, Texas on May 19-22.

The world grows more interconnected by the day and many organizational workforces are becoming increasingly diverse and distributed as a result. By the year 2020, there will be an unprecedented number of generations in the workforce. In addition, IDC predicts that the mobile worker population is set to increase to 1.19 billion in 2013, accounting for 34.9 percent of the workforce. To take advantage of this rich pool of talent, employers need to ensure learning and development strategies appeal to each demographic despite having vastly different learning styles and methods. In addition, companies will need to be more flexible, agile and responsive when developing their training programs.  

VIA specializes in developing creative learning programs that drive organizational performance for companies around the world. VIA learning services include custom and blended game-based, mobile and web training initiatives that engage, captivate and educate learners by delivering the right information at the right time.

VIA’s dedicated learning specialists will be on-site to discuss solutions to overcoming a variety of business challenges including on-boarding, sales/channel enablement and compliance training for multigenerational and distributed workforces.

In addition, representatives will demonstrate VIA’s innovative cloud solution, MobilePaks (http://www.mobilepaks.com/), that offers on-demand learning and performance support to employees. It is device agnostic and will work on any smartphones, tablets, laptops or desktop computers. Plus, MobilePaks enables managers to quickly author, convert, push and track content-rich bits of knowledge and education to provide a simple, anytime, anyplace, educational experience.

"As a strategic partner, VIA provides incredibly valuable insight on both best practices and thought leadership for online training and learning that is accessible, repeatable and scalable,” said Julie Anne Reda, VP of Product Strategy, Yesmail Interactive. “Their insightful recommendations and quick turn-around times, combined with the easy to use MobilePaks cloud solution, enabled us to deliver a program to our staff that ensures consistent knowledge of the Yesmail product platform. I would highly recommend them."
