ELEARNINGFORCE and Immersion Technology Services Emerge From Stealth with Two Microsoft App Awards

EDGEWATER, Md. - Aug. 10, 2015 - PRLog -- We are proud to announce that strategic partner ELEARNINGFORCE International received two Office App awards at the Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference. Carefully selected by a panel of judges, the LMS365® | SCORM Player, came up on top in a pool of more than 110 entries. The app was recognized in the following two categories:

- Best Performing SharePoint Add-in

- Most Business Value - SharePoint Add-in

Judges were particularly impressed by ELEARNINGFORCE and other winners in the education and training space, noting that solutions such as the LMS365 | SCORM Player represent the cutting edge of Microsoft’s increased focus on extending education and training capabilities for Office 365.

The winning LMS365 | SCORM Player combines SCORM-based training with Office 365, providing companies with the benefits of a learning management system (LMS) without having to implement a full-blown LMS. For an enriched learning experience the LMS 365solution can be expanded with the Course Creator, Course Catalog, Learning Path, Quiz, and Assignment & Gradebook apps, complete with enrollment and certification features.  This supports the vast array of collaborative social networking features provided by Office 365.

Paul Andringa, COO of ELEARNINGFORCE and Chris Ostler, CEO Immersion Technology Services, the US presence for ELEARNINGFORCE, accepted the awards at Microsoft’s celebratory Road Trip Party held at the Harley Davidson Historic Factory.

“When Microsoft informed us that our Office 365 Apps had won an award we were absolutely delighted” said Paul Andringa, COO ELEARNINGFORCE. “You can imagine our surprise when we received not just one, but two prestigious awards. Being recognized and rewarded by Microsoft for our solutions shows the tremendous value of our strategic partnership. It furthermore demonstrates the importance of niche Independent Software Vendors (ISV) like ourselves in the Microsoft Partner Eco System.”

Chris Ostler, CEO Immersion Technology Services said “partnering with ELEARNINGFORCE for the past 7 years and now winning the two awards is a great indicator of things to come as we focus on the transition to providing the best Learning Management System available for Office 365 customers.”
