Articulate Awarded Platinum Award for Overall Satisfaction by eLearning Guild Members

New York, NY (PRWeb) February 13, 2007 -- Articulate, the market leading in rapid e-learning software, was awarded both Platinum and Gold awards for tools satisfaction by eLearning Guild members in the new eLearning Guild Members Choice Awards for Immersive Learning Simulations. Articulate Rapid E-Learning Studio Pro, which combines Articulate Presenter Pro, Articulate Quizmaker and Articulate Engage, received a Platinum award and Articulate Presenter Pro received a Gold award. Articulate was the only company to receive two awards in the Games/Tools Satisfaction category.

The eLearning Guild is a global Community of Practice for e-Learning professionals and provides learning opportunities, networking services, resources, and publications for over 23,800 members. The awards are announced in conjunction with the publication of the Guild's premier Guild Research 360 Report on Immersive Learning Simulations which focuses on the demand for, and demands of, simulations, scenarios and serious games for learning.

"We wanted these awards to have a lot of credibility, and not just represent the opinions of a handful of people," said Steve Wexler, the Guild's director of research and emerging technologies. "More than 4,600 eLearning Guild members have told us which tools they use and have told us what they think of these tools and the awards were based on the opinions of these e-Learning professionals -- professionals that are passionate about e-Learning."

"We are extremely gratified and thankful to the eLearning Guild members who bestowed us with this honor," said Adam Schwartz, president of Articulate. "Customer satisfaction drives our team every day, and it's rewarding to receive yet another independent validation that we are succeeding in our objectives."

The eLearning Guild awards follow last month's recognition in which Articulate Rapid E-Learning Studio Pro and Articulate Presenter were awarded Best of 2006 E-Learning Awards by readers of E-Learning! Magazine.
