Xyleme Brings Analytics into Bravais

Boulder, CO (US), November 2012 - Xyleme's update to Bravais 1.2 provides the ability to track and report on all the content published to and from the BravaisTM cloud platform and across all devices from which this content is accessed. For training organizations, this powerful new capability means that executives will be able to measure effectiveness per individual piece of content, such as specific topics, lessons, video clips, and interactions. Long gone are the days where you can only track if the entire course was downloaded and completed.




With Bravais 1.2, the granularity of the content provides an opportunity to evaluate exactly which pieces of content are most effective and which devices are most desired at the moment of need, allowing for continuous improvement of content.


More specifically, the tracking in Bravais 1.2 includes how users are accessing content, distinguishing which pieces are most popular, and identifying how the content is performing. And because Xyleme follows an Agile development process, analytics will be enhanced with new information such as social comments and ratings on a continuous basis.


"As an industry, learning and development has struggled to determine what's working and what's not when it comes to the training and performance-support materials they supply to their employees, customers, and partners," commented Stacey Harris, VP, Research and Advisory Services at Brandon Hall Group. "The promise of big data for learning is huge: training organizations can determine the correlation between the content they develop and the performance of their learners and take immediate and meaningful action to improve the information they deliver to their organizations and clients. With Bravais, we see Xyleme emerging as one of the clear innovators in this space."
