Ceridian Adds Managed Learning Services To Its Human Resources Outsourcing Offerings

MINNEAPOLIS (June 25, 2007) – Ceridian (www.ceridian.com), a leader in human resources outsourcing management solutions, today announced that it has expanded its offerings to include Internet-hosted enterprise learning and development services.

Ceridian has formed an alliance with GeoLearning, Inc., the leading provider of managed learning services and hosted learning and performance technology, to deliver this service to Ceridian’s clients.

“Adding e-learning services to Ceridian’s menu of HR outsourcing services will enable us to help organizations to capture, create, manage and share knowledge to help them improve workforce productivity, accelerate critical business processes, and drive organizational performance,” said Ceridian HRO general manager and senior vice president, Keith Strodtman. “We feel that GeoLearning’s GeoMaestro platform is very well suited to our clients as it provides a learning solution that is scaled to meet the learning and development needs of the mid-market.”

GeoLearning’s award-winning Software as a Service (SaaS) model means the GeoMaestro platform is delivered entirely over the Internet, eliminating all the headaches, hassles and risks associated with traditional hardware and software implementations. The system centralizes and automates the entire learning management process, making the administration of enterprise learning and development both effective and efficient.

Some examples of how an organization would utilize this service may include development of learning programs to increase one’s competencies within a unique skill set, creation of a program to support licensure or create a common level of understanding when rolling out a new initiative (e.g., employee engagement, Lean Six Sigma, etc).

“The strong demand in the mid-market for talent and performance management solutions that are easy to deploy and manage make this a partnership with tremendous potential,” said Michael Morrison, senior vice president of corporate development for GeoLearning. “Adding GeoLearning’s on-demand learning and performance technology to its suite of HRO offerings is a natural extension for Ceridian. And certainly we’re excited about extending our learning solutions through Ceridian’s sales and marketing network.”
