Technogym is now offering GlobalEnglish-s cloud-based Business English development and support tools to its workers around the world so it can better serve its rapidly expanding, multi-lingual client base. The software suite incorporates robust Business English applications for social collaboration, mobile productivity, on-the-job performance support, formal and informal learning, and the ability to evaluate and measure usage and proficiency improvements company-wide. GlobalEnglish-s comprehensive product suite uniquely meets the needs of Technogym-s dispersed workforce, providing efficient support at the time and place that employees need it, while offering Technogym with a single, standardized global solution. Technogym opted for the GlobalEnglish Enterprise Edition as it provides the highest value at the lowest cost per subscriber so it could put GlobalEnglish-s tools in the hands of the maximum number of employees.
