Online trainings and education are beneficial not only to students but to company employees as well. When companies want to keep their staff updated and aware of the latest products or procedures, such educational and informative methods become the best possible choice especially in the fast-developing Pharma industry. Our team at Astra Nova has established the Better Industry Initiative (Bii) which offers free of charge quality online training for individuals, as well as different academic and private organisations. The implementation of a new Learning Management System (LMS) helps us build more valuable, stronger and more efficient online education platform that provides with an improved and experienced professional knowledge delivered through free courses. Of course flexibility and cost-efficiency are just a small part of the initiative’s primary benefits.
Among the institutions which have taken advantage of the Better Industry Initiative and the online education platform are University of Portsmouth and Brunel University. Now, the last addition to the Bii Academic Programme is University of Hannover. Regarding the usefulness of the Initiative, Professor Gerhard Fortwengel at the University of Applied Sciences gave us his testimonial:
“Thanks a lot. I checked the website and entered onto LMS. That is really good. I am very much looking forward to provide the courses to my students during spring term.”
Professor Gerhard Fortwengel
With the newly developed Learning Management System we manage to not only create a bridge between the academic and the business world but also set-up an easy – to – use platform. Yet, it is important to point out that this online education platform offers a quick access to a variety of trainings of crucial role to all students and young specialists entering the professional world of Pharma and Clinical Research.
Using the LMS also enables the creation of courses directly in the system by using personal accounts. Academic staff can form their own trainings and seminars, simultaneously update their modules and specialties and make them more engaging and interactive for the benefit of their students.
