Upside Learning’s growth story continues as the company recorded a staggering 97% YOY growth for Q1–Q2 in FY 2012. The high YOY growth highlights the growing adoption of the company’s wide range of learning solutions, especially its multi award–winning Learning Management System, UpsideLMS, and Custom Learning solutions, which include tailor–made solutions for desktops and mobile devices.

While the increasing sale of its solutions and services has been a driving force for the company’s growth, another key driving force is the rapidly growing partner network. New partnerships in regions like the UK, Middle East, Thailand over the past couple of months have enabled Upside Learning to widen its global reach.

Upside Learning has always believed in innovating itself and its products and services. True to this and with a view to enhancing its growth further, the company has chalked out a promising product roadmap for its solutions – UpsideLMS and Upside2Go, its revolutionary mLearning platform. The coming quarters will see several enhancements in both these products.

The company has recently appointed a Director of Client Solutions for the UK and Europe. This appointment will bolster the company’s efforts in extending its reach in the UK and Europe regions, thereby strengthening its growth.

Recently Upside Learning has also won a Brandon Hall Award for one of its custom eLearning projects. This underlines the company’s commitment towards providing world class learning solutions and services.

Upside Learning has entered into a channel partnership with TSC Innovation, a leader in visualize network wire and wireless communication, for Thailand. The partnership marks Upside Learning’s entry in this South Asian region and underlines its efforts to strengthen its partner network across the globe.

As a trusted Upside Learning channel partner, TSC Innovation will provide Upside Learning’s solutions portfolio comprising UpsideLMS, the best value Learning Management System, and Upside2Go, the revolutionary mobile learning platform, to its clients and prospects. TSC Innovation will also develop new business, deploy the system at the end client’s and provide first line support to the clients. Upside Learning will assist TSC Innovation in closing the sale through Sales, Marketing and Product support.

Speaking about the partnership, Amit Gautam, Director of Technology Solutions at Upside Learning, commented, “We are pleased to appoint TSC Innovation as our partner in Thailand. It has an excellent reputation in the communication field and will help us in representing Upside Learning well in this region.

Going a step beyond SCORM, Upside Learning has now integrated Tin Can API into its proprietary courseware framework for custom eLearning and mobile learning. These Tin Can compliant courses can be developed for desktops, as well as mobile devices, including tablets.

As a leading provider of world–class learning technology solutions, Upside Learning has always adhered to the latest learning standards in creating and delivering eLearning and mLearning solutions. Integrating Tin Can API into its solutions was only a natural progression for the company.

Integrating Tin Can into its proprietary courseware framework enables Upside Learning to create custom learning courses for desktops and mobile devices (including tablets), tailor–made to its client’s requirements. Clients can thereafter track and report their learners’ actions carried through these courses. These actions, defined in a simple noun–verb–object format, can help an organisation get a comprehensive view of their learners’ learning activities – be it completing a course, watching a video, taking an assessment or something as simple as opening a course. Further, these statements can be sent to any LRS (Learning Record Store). LRSs can share data and transcripts with one another, ensuring that the learners’ experiences follow them from one LRS (or organisation) to another.

At the recently concluded DevLearn 2012, held in Las Vegas, USA, Upside Learning’s integration of Tin Can API into its proprietary framework was demonstrated as a part of the Watershed showcase. Watershed is an application created for DevLearn 2012 to act as a single LRS endpoint for all Tin Can statements being generated at the event.

Future plans for the company include integration of this new standard into its other learning solutions like UpsideLMS and Upside2Go.

The flat world and the growing Internet population have put a great importance on websites as one of the primary sources of information. With more than a million websites added every year, creating a website that stands apart from the crowd and provides all necessary information to the reader is nothing less than an art. And Upside Learning has demonstrated this art by figuring 26^th on the ‘100 Highest Ranking Websites In eLearning And Learning Technology’ List.

Conducted by Now, a leading Marcomm management company, this ranking is calculated by crunching together individual rankings from Google PageRank, Moz Rank, Alexa, Hubspot’s Web grader and Compete. While this list focuses on commercial operators whose primary market is B2B learning, larger companies with specific divisions or product sets targeting the learning industry are included but only specific portions of their website have been used in the ranking.

Congratulating its in-house Marketing team on this achievement, Amit Garg, Director of Custom eLearning Solutions at Upside Learning commented, “We have always believed in valuing the time of visitors to our website and as such our website has reflected information that is accurate and to the point. Our in-house marketing team especially the SEO/ SMO experts deserve a great applause for the efforts taken to optimise our website from all perspectives. Getting listed on the top 100 websites for eLearning and learning technology is indeed a pat on the back for all of us.”

Upside Learning has always been at the forefront of learning and technology; providing innovative learning solutions to its clients, and sharing its knowledge with the global community. Over the past year the company has conducted multiple webinars, in association with Brandon Hall Group, addressing key topics in L&D. While such joint webinars will continue to figure on Upside Learning’s agenda, the company has announced today the roll out of its independent webinars series.

The series will commence with a webinar focusing on mobile learning titled,
‘No Escaping Mobile Learning’. Scheduled on 8^th August at 11AM EDT, the webinar will explore various reasons which make escaping mobile learning impossible for organisation. It will explain the key drivers accelerating mobile learning adoption, and how organisation can take the first steps towards leveraging this technology for learning. It will also give insights on how L&D departments can employ mobile technology to deliver highly productive and time–and cost–effective training to its employees.

The webinar will be co–presented by Amit Garg, Founder & Director of Upside Learning, along with Abhijit Kadle, Sr. Manager – Instructional Design at Upside Learning.

The free 45 minute webinar will be held on 8^th August 2012 at 11 AM EDT. This will be followed by a 15 minute Q&A session wherein the participants would have an opportunity to interact with the hosts.

With the worldwide market for Mobile Learning products and services predicted to grow from USD 3.2 billion (2010) to about USD 9.1 billion by 2015 (as per Ambient Insight’s September 2011 report titled ‘The Worldwide Market for Mobile Learning Products and Services: 2010-2015 Forecast and Analysis’) it’s only natural for companies dealing in Mobile Learning products and services to showcase their wares with an increased gusto. Hinged on this fact, Upside Learning too will be focusing on its Mobile Learning solutions at ASTD TK 2012 and Learning Technologies 2012.

Visitors at Upside Learning’s booth can get a taste of some of the company’s wide range of custom mobile learning offerings that include micro courses, quizzes and games, mbooks, mobile videos, augmented reality apps and custom mobile apps for different smartphones and tablets. The main attraction, however, will be Upside2Go, Upside Learning’s revolutionary platform for Mobile Learning. Designed for the workforce that is continuously on the move, Upside2Go brings formal, informal, social and collaborative learning, and performance support to one central platform – mobile. Now available on all the major mobile platforms, namely iOS, BlackBerry and Android, Upside2Go has a host of features that clients look for in a mobile learning platform. At the expo, the Upside Learning staff will be able to demonstrate various ways in which existing clients are using Upside2Go.

Also on display would be Upside Learning’s award-winning Custom eLearning Solutions and soon to be released version of its two-time Brandon Hall award-winning, best value Learning Management System – UpsideLMS. Users can expect a completely redesigned and more user-friendly interface for this stunning LMS.

ASTD TK 2012 will be held at Las Vegas, NV from 25^th to 27^th January and Learning Technologies will be held at Olympia 2, London on 25th and 26th January.
