Click2learn, leader in enterprise productivity solutions, today announced that the industry leader in electronic billing and payment services and products has implemented Click2learn’s ToolBook simulation and content authoring solution to prepare hundreds of employees throughout the country for an enterprise-wide ERP system rollout.

Click2learn, leader in enterprise productivity solutions, in conjunction with Wedgewood Consulting Group, Inc., today announced that the Office of the Deputy Under Secretary of the Air Force International Affairs (SAF/IA) has successfully deployed the Aspen Enterprise Productivity Suite™ to drive the new Air Force International Affairs Certification and Career Development System (CCDS). The CCDS was born out of a Department of Defense initiative that sought to address federal workforce-related challenges, including the increasing complexity of world political and military situations, a decrease in potential new personnel, and the attrition of human capital. To tackle these issues, the Air Force created the CCDS and chose the Aspen Enterprise Productivity Suite™ as the backbone of the program.
