AICC Certifies Learnet

Getronics' Learnet achieves AICC Certification

Sugar City, Idaho USA – – The Aviation Industry Computer-Based Training Committee announced this week the certification of Getronics Learnet 1.2 as compliant with the AICC’s web-based Computer Managed Instruction (CMI) guidelines (AGR-010). Learnet is the first Italian LMS (Learning Management System) vendor to receive AICC certification.

The ease in which Learnet passed through the certification process speaks to the high level of comittment shown by Getronics AICC project team as a whole. Learnet has clearly demonstrated its ability to enable its customers (private companies and public institutions) to deliver a full training experience oriented towards effective human resources skills management.

Gentronics considers the adoption of the AICC CMI interoperability guidelines as a natural evolution of Learnet in response to market requests for smarter investments in time and intellectual capital training strategies. As Learnet matures, Getronics plans to further improve its feature set based on lessons learned from the ongoing efforts of the AICC and other international learning technology standards committees.
