Caja Madrid Entrusts its LCMS to Giunti Labs

Florence (IT), March 2010 - Caja Madrid has revolutionised its training systems through the use of a learning content management system (LCMS) augmented by a learning management system supplied by Giunti Labs. This improves both the efficiency and cost effectiveness of Caja Madrid's staff-training activities.




High levels of employee productivity and efficiency are crucial to Caja Madrid's continued success and growth. This is the main reason why Giunti Labs' learn eXact LCMS represents the most suitable solution for the organisation's training- content production and management.

The project - known as "Aula Virtual de Caja Madrid" - aims to exploit, and profit from Caja Madrid's knowledge, as well as that of its partners and collaborators. All this is possible through a special system for learning materials development and delivery, which is aligned to market rhythm and requirements.

This brand-new "Aula Virtual" supports a web-based content-development method that can be used by internal and external subject matter experts as well as by learning object (LO) providers. Since LOs are then managed on the same LCMS and labelled with the same metadata schema, the whole process becomes more efficient from both content reuse and update points of view.

"The learn eXact LCMS solution allows Caja Madrid to organise its learning content into one single content management system and digital repository", explains Giunti Labs' CEO, Fabrizio Cardinali. "Most importantly, the legacy content of a huge number of instructor-led courses is being transferred into the system and tagged with a SCORM-based metadata and taxonomies framework."

In February 2009, Caja Madrid adopted the SCORM 2004 standard for all its learning materials and recently began insisting that all firms providing its learning materials do so with Giunti Labs' SCORM 2004-conformant eXact Packager software.

In April 2009, Giunti Labs' eXact Lobster Digital Repository was installed in Caja Madrid, and content providers started generating content connected to Giunti Labs' eXact Lobster at Caja Madrid. In the first months of 2010, Caja Madrid's employees have begun using the resulting learning content.
