New York, NY November 2006- Brightpoint Inc., supplier of customized cell phones and cell phone accessories with over 20,000 global customers, has selected the Vuepoint Learning System (VLS) as their e-learning platform for compliance training to their Human Resources staff.  Vuepoint has already deployed the Learning Management System (LMS) and Learning Content Management System (LCMS), and Brightpoint’s North American employees are now using the interactive training system for their educational needs.

Brightpoint Inc. is the last link in the cellular phone supply chain, distributing and customizing cell phones for region and brand.  In 2005 Brightpoint distributed 42 million wireless devices to the largest names in mobile technology such as Nokia, LG, Sony Ericsson, Motorola and Samsung. The company sought an e-learning system to train all global employees, educate their sales force and regulate practices among brand partners.  Vuepoint offers a scalable solution that can be implemented locally and used broadly at a global level.    

More specifically, Brighpoint chose the Vuepoint Learning System:

•To prepare staff for a new product deployment
•To facilitate the building of new skills and knowledge among staff
•To help staff better understand the product

When asked how VLS will impact Brightpoint’s business, Karen Hutson, Compliance Manager for Brightpoint replied that she is optimistic VLS will “Increase quality in course development, increase productivity, increase employee satisfaction, increase the ability to innovate and decrease costs.”

Several case studies conducted by clients of Vuepoint have found tremendous benefits from using the VLS e-learning system.  Companies have individually saved millions of dollars on employee training costs, training delivery time has been reduced from months to several weeks, and corporations have experienced improved knowledge retention rates.  One company found their employees knowledge retention level to be 85-90 % after using the Vuepoint Learning System.
