Pathlore Finds Room at the (La Quinta) Inn for Training Solution
COLUMBUS, Ohio, May 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Pathlore Software
Corporation, a global leader in providing learning management
software and services to industry and government, announced that La
Quinta Corporation (NYSE:LQI) has selected the software maker's
learning management solution to create a barometer for measuring
the effectiveness of training across the Dallas-based company's
more than 590 hotels. Pathlore's solution offers La Quinta's
executives and employees a high-tech platform from which to launch,
analyze and manage training over the Internet. La Quinta will use
Pathlore's software to create a single source for delivering and
analyzing training offered in classrooms and online. Indeed, more
than 9,000 corporate and field employees will be able to tap the
Pathlore system to access a consistent program of training around
the clock. Training will range from check-in procedures for
front-desk employees to mandated courses - such as ethics or sexual
harassment prevention - for all workers. "Pathlore's solution gives
us a way to deliver and administer training over the Internet for
employees and franchisees in 39 states as well as Canada," said
Christina Parr, director of Training and Organizational Development
at La Quinta Corporation. "And that means we'll not only reduce the
cost of training but also deliver courses to learners when and
where they need it in a consistent, just-in-time method." By
automating the logistics tied to managing employee development
(i.e., registering employees for classes, tracking transcripts,
evaluating instruction, etc.) training professionals save time and
money. For example, with Pathlore's system up and running, La
Quinta can buy training content in bulk and serve up much larger
classes online for its workforce at a discount versus having a few
employees attend an offsite class at a greater cost. As a result,
La Quinta's training professionals are then able to spend more time
developing new programs aimed at taking care of the guest. Hotel
& Motel Management magazine recently reported that a list of
the "most-frequent guest complaints" for hotels and motels
everywhere hasn't changed in almost 25 years. The article inferred
that a reliance on outdated training techniques was a cause. So
innovative organizations like La Quinta have invested in
state-of-the-art training tools to address these long- standing
industry issues. "Within the hotel & hospitality industry,
recruitment and retention are big challenges, as is the issue of
reaching a highly distributed and dispersed training population,"
said Peter McStravick, research analyst for market research firm
IDC. "By tapping into Pathlore's training technology, La Quinta
will be able to give its employees 24-hour access to instruction
and a way to build a training plan that meets their career goals;
La Quinta has developed an attractive recruiting tool, too." About
