First, the team heads to picturesque Denver, Colorado for the world's largest training and development conference, ASTD International 2012, May 7-9. More than 8,000 attendees from 70 countries are expected to attend the premier event for workplace learning and development professionals hosted by the American Society of Training & Development. 

Next, the team travels across country lines into Canada for the bi-annual CME Congress event in Toronto, May 30 - June 2. During the 4 day intensive event, the team will meet with professionals in continuing medical education from across North America, South America, Europe and Asia.  

In response to growing interest from international audiences, Digitec plans to continue efforts to serve training and development professionals globally by incorporating additional multilingual and multi-currency pricing functionality into the Knowledge Direct suite of software.

The Indiana Association of REALTORS® has officially joined the Knowledge Direct family with the implementation of the association's new online learning portal for member professional development and continuing education. Knowledge Direct will also support a new certification program offered by the association through their online university, Real Estate Certification Programs, Inc.

Programs offered through RECP include Salesperson and Broker Prelicensing courses along with basic and advanced level continuing education courses on timely topics. RECP also prepares students to enter the real estate industry with programs focused on appraisals and property inspection, among others.

Integration with the group's association management system, iMIS, will allow seamless entry into the portal with single sign-on and automated learner registration. Multi-portal capability within Knowledge Direct will enable the association to run various, segmented portals through the platform with centralized content management and reporting.

Digitec has begun building a bridge to integrate its Knowledge Direct learning management system with TMA Resource's Personify association management system. An off-the-shelf integration with the Personify AMS will provide users of both systems with single sign-on, secure data transfer, eCommerce and enhanced member self-services.

Once the integration is complete, users will log in through the Personify AMS and be automatically granted access to the Knowledge Direct LMS. Member demographic information will also be passed from the Personify database and be reflected in the user's Knowledge Direct learner profile. Course purchases made from the Personify eBusiness catalog will be automatically populated in the learner's course assignments in Knowledge Direct. Course completion records, assessment scores and CE credit achievement will also be transferred from the user's Knowledge Direct eTranscript to Personify.

Additional information about Digitec's integration capabilities can be found on our website.
