LINE Develops Web-based Training for Birdstep Intelligent Mobile IP Software

LINE Communications, has been awarded the contract to develop an interactive training and learning solution to accompany the roll out of the latest within Mobile IP technology.

The 4-hour learning module will be used during the rapid deployment of the technology, developed by Norwegian technology innovator Birdstep Technology, enabling technical engineers to be certified and trained in the solution prior to implementation and deployment.

Birdstep's Intelligent Mobile IP Client technology revolutionises the mobile and remote working experience by allowing secure, seamless and hassle free handover between networks such as GSM/GPRS, Wireless LAN (802.11) or Ethernet. It will provide secure access to corporate infrastructures from anywhere and at any time to existing LAN (Local Area Network) without the requirement for capital investment in new infrastructure. Cisco Systems, Hewlett Packard Norway, PWC Consulting and the Norwegian operator Telenor Mobile have adopted the technology to service their clients.

The completed e-learning module will be delivered globally via both the Internet and Intranet for Birdstep's global customers and partners.

The Birdstep learning solution involves the integration of a Learning Content Management System (LCMS) and Learning Management System (LMS). LINE has developed the learning material using re-usable learning objects - one of the first major e-learning solutions to do so - to enable the content to be re-purposed and redeveloped quickly and easily to add new language versions, or to develop it for Pocket PC, or 3G platforms.
