Santa Ana, CA (PRWEB) August 11, 2004 -- MaxKnowledge announced today that it
has initiated the development of a comprehensive set of online training courses
to enhance the quality and profitability of e-learning programs at Career
Colleges. David Grebow, an internationally known e-learning expert, has been
appointed to the position of Director of eLearning to lead this
initiative.
The courses will cover the effective development and
delivery, as well as the profitable management, of career-focused online
programs. This includes topics ranging from successfully competing for online
students to maintaining contact after students complete their online programs.
“Our offerings for online operations will match the power, richness and
diversity of our offerings for on-ground operations,” said Dr. Amir Moghadam,
Executive Director of MaxKnowledge. “In addition to effective online teaching
strategies, we will cover successful online student recruitment, retention and
placement strategies for Career Colleges.”
“Career Colleges have become
the primary educational choice for career-focused students, especially for
workers whose jobs have been off-shored, outsourced or downsized. Career
Colleges are also the first choice for most workers looking to change careers.
The key delivery platform for these students is online programs, with all their
variety, flexibility and easy access to instructors and other students,” said
David Grebow. “Online programs have already become a critical part of the
learning experience at many Career Colleges. MaxKnowledge is uniquely positioned
to enhance that experience by offering training in how to provide their students
with the highest quality online education,” added David Grebow. “We will be
recruiting a team of expert faculty with specific experience in the various
aspects of the online world to offer the best training available.”
“We
are very fortunate to have David Grebow as the leader for this initiative,”
added Dr. Moghadam. “David has a degree in Communications and Education from the
University of Boston, with an emphasis on Adult Education and Instructional
Technology. He is a well-known author and speaker in the area of online
education and training. David’s extensive background in the e-learning business
include: Director of Online Performance Support for Digital Equipment
Corporation, Director of Online Education for PeopleSoft, Co-Founder and
Director of IBM’s Institute for Advanced Learning, Co-Director of IBM’s MindSpan
Solutions, and Chief Learning Officer of Comcourse, an e-learning service
company providing turnkey online certificate and degree programs specifically
