Total Learning Concepts Develops Interactive Game-Based Learning System to Train Sales Force for Leading Specialty Company

LAWRENCEVILLE, NJ – June 23, 2008 – Total Learning Concepts, a training content company that specializes in e-Learning, has partnered with a leading specialty biopharmaceutical company to develop an interactive, game-based learning system to provide disease state training for their sales representatives and managers. Total Learning Concepts is a Publicis Healthcare Communications Group Company.

Total Learning Concepts’ Serious Game-Based Learning System is a customizable, game-based learning system that helps pharmaceutical and biotech sales representatives increase their knowledge retention by as much as 10 times, and at a fraction of the development time and cost of custom game-based learning programs.

“Total Learning Concepts’ Serious Game-Based Learning System has enabled our Client to train their sales representatives and managers without having to take them out of their territories,” said Dr. Glen Low, Director of eLearning Strategies for Total Learning Concepts. “The Serious Game-Based Learning System has also made it possible for this Client to enhance its training with effective, interactive, game-based learning, which brings a higher level of effectiveness to both sales representatives and managers.”

Total Learning Concepts’ Serious-Game Learning System includes an online authoring platform for rapidly customizing more than 30 instructionally proven game templates that can be deployed for any number of employees. Learners compete in a fun, engaging Challenge Arena at their own pace and according to their individual availability for training, resulting in increased retention rates. The success of each learning initiative can be monitored by managers, sales trainers, and the marketing department with the system’s QDashboard learner analytics engine.

“The Serious Game-Based Learning System produces knowledge transfer that is 4 times greater than traditional methods, and knowledge retention that is 10 times greater,” said Dr. Low. “By using the Serious Game-Based Learning System, people retain over 45 percent of what they've learned in this same time frame. Serious Game-Based Learning incorporates the latest research in instructional design to offer an entirely new way to engage, motivate, and educate a sales force.”
