Swiss VBS sophisticated educational campaigns on show at Learning Technologies

Swiss VBS is taking part in the upcoming Learning Technologies and Learning and Skills exhibitions in London, showcasing its web-centred educational campaigns: used by some of Europe's largest businesses in their change programmes.

To remain innovative and competitive, companies must constantly transform themselves. Often, this involves the movement of hundreds, if not thousands, of people in the same direction, at the same time - a formidable challenge. 

SwissVBS’s web-centered educational campaigns help some of the world’s largest and most prestigious organizations – including Deutsche Bank, BMW, Allianz, and SAP - realize their long-term strategies, managing both change and talent, strengthening their competitiveness and their market position.

SwissVBS fuses the transformational power of the new media with the tremendous reach of the web to create educational campaigns that transcend the garden-variety elearning used by most organizations. Sophisticated animations, cinematic story-telling, and 3D virtual worlds draw participants in. Unlike authoring-tool-created elearning, SwissVBS’s educational campaigns do not simply ‘mediatize’ source material, rather they create learning experiences that capture the imaginations of learners on a deeply personal level, allowing them to become active participants in their own transformation.

The ubiquity of smartphones and tablets have further expanded the reach – and the possibilities – of web-centered learning. SwissVBS’s mobile learning campaigns take advantage of the distinct properties of mobile devices, enlisting their tactile functionality to make the transformational experience more intimate. Content is broken down into thematically interconnected ‘microlearning apps’ that allow learners to access precisely what they are looking for, exactly when they need it.

SwissVBS was founded ten years ago, emerging from the University of St.Gallen, Switzerland. With its production headquarters in Toronto, it combines Swiss quality and reliability with North American innovation and creativity. Let SwissVBS help you create a customized webcentered or mobile educational campaign to facilitate transformation within your organization and to realize your long-term strategy.
