- EspritLMS
- Developed by Resource Engineering for use with our own web-based
training courses offered at QualityTrainingPortal.com.
- We have now been using it since 2001
- Resource Engineering is the leader of off-the-shelf computer- and
web-based training to support quality and productivity improvement
efforts in manufacturing companies.
- Resource Engineering customers include: Bose, Motorola, Caterpilla=
r,
United Technologies, and Milliken to name a few.
- Because EspritLMS was custom-designed by Resource Engineering, it has
some unique features that you won’t find with other LMSs

- Selling this type of product is clearly outside of the scope of our
business.
- However, we have had many ToolBook developers ask if we could make =
the
LMS commercially available and after giving it a great deal of thou=
ght,
we have decided to pursue it.
- We believe that EspritLMS offers a win-win opportunity for Resource
Engineering and for potential EspritLMS customers.
- Potential customers benefit because they can be sure that EspritLMS
will continue to be improved since it is used to support Resource
Engineering’s core business.
- The benefit to Resource Engineering is that the costs of continued
development will be partially supported through the EspritLMS reven=
ues.
