“I want to thank everyone there for producing such challenging and entertaining courses. I loved the animations. Again I wanted you to know how thankful I am for the quick work from Customer Support. They really deserve the recognition for a job well done. When calling in from Canada I wasn't sure how long it would take to get the correct information, and was greatly surprised. Keep up the great work there and I will recommend your services to everyone who may need education credits.”
Financial Advisor, April 2003
“We required a fast and effective solution for our Training and Competency training needs. Wide offered user friendly, short, and well produced courses which matched our requirements.
Wide Learning after sales and technical support was extremely effective in helping us work towards launch. Technical support were invaluable in helping us install the programmes onto our intranet.
Wide Learning’s team have a real “can do” attitude and are willing to go the extra mile to fully meet your needs.”
Learning & Development Consultant, Britannic Asset Management, April 2003
Judges’ Citation: “The graphic interface is beautifully simple and very attractive to look at. The illustrations and animations are delightfully executed, making excellent use of colour. Using the site is very straightforward and there is a natural flow through the various sections, drawing the audience into the learning experience. The site makes use of a wide variety of educational and interactive tools, all of which keep it both interesting and informative. The site treats the subject seriously and at the same time addresses its young audience at exactly the right level. All in all a delightful piece of environmental education.”

"We wanted to put in place an online generic testing programme which would be available for new entrants, and the annual testing of our existing Appointed Representatives.
We also required online training for Money Laundering Prevention, which could be used centrally or remotely in our Appointed Representatives practices.
Comments from users have been extremely positive. The product has been seen as being very user friendly, and a professional approach to training and testing. The learning material was pitched at the right level, with the testing/feedback and central monitoring facility making it a good all round product.”
Training & Development Manager, Tenet Group, March 2003
“We wanted a training program that was tailored to our needs and felt Wide was the best suited to achieving this. The key factor for us was to be able to test peoples understanding of the course work, and the tracking of individuals performances.
Everyone we dealt with at Wide was friendly, helpful, and gave us clear explanations on what was required. The Wide solution was user friendly, and implementation was smooth and efficient.”
Senior Manager, Settlements & MLRO, Norddeutsche Landesbank Girozentrale, March 2003

“The Executive Marketing Master of ESSEC Business School, Paris, in a recent assessment of the European e-learning marketplace, identified Wide Learning accounting and finance modules as one of the best e-learning offerings currently available in this domain."
e-Learning Project Director, ESSEC Business School, France, September 2002
“Our ‘one team service culture’ initiative is designed to ensure that everyone works together as a first-rate team. Crucial to this, is an understanding of all our business areas and the market as a whole. As a result, we were looking to make our financial business training more widely available within the organisation, particularly for support staff.
Wide met our expectations and were very efficient. The implementation was easier because it was done via the web. And it was on time.
Our users like the look of the courseware, particularly the different ways Wide Learning portrays information, through animations, sound, and text etc. The topics are very specific for our industry – it’s exactly the kind of thing we can buy into.
The beauty of this contract is that it’s so flexible – we pay monthly for what we use. Other providers tie you in for one, sometimes up to three years before you have had chance to see if it works. With Wide, I can change the number of courses, or number of users on a month-to-month basis. That really works for us!”
Trainer, Martin Currie Investment Management Ltd, June 2002
“I was surprised how user-friendly Wide Learning was and am quite keen to work away on them. A plus to Wide Learning when I had a query late last night; the technical help man was brilliant. It is quite handy to have 24/7 technical support, and I was surprised when he mentioned how many of their students are at work late on a Sunday night!”
Company Secretarial Administrator (Corporate Client Services), Martin Currie Investment Management Ltd, June 2002
“Just to say thank you for this seminar. I found it to be very informative and helpful in my thinking around some of the issues relating to e learning.”

"I believe that this kind of firm-wide diversity training is invaluable. It demonstrates a clear commitment to diversity policy, crucial to maintaining a productive workplace, and of course looked upon very positively by employment tribunals when assessing discrimination cases."
