Putting the distance into “distance learning”
PTT’s telecoms e-learning courses have been used by telecoms organisations worldwide for over 16 years but one of our newest clients is probably the most remote.
At over 10,000 miles from PTT’s UK offices and across 11 timezones, SamoaTel (www.samoatel.ws) in Samoa are about as far away as a client can get.
SamoaTel is the largest provider of fixed phone, mobile and broadband services to the beautiful Independent State of Samoa, (formerly known as Western Samoa), which is made up of volcanic islands and located in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.
SamoaTel has chosen PTT to deliver efficient, cost-effective and timely e-learning to their people. Alani Faiai, General Manager of Operations and Engineering at SamoaTel explained why they chose PTT’s telecoms e-learning:
“We have sought proper and cost effective online training for our technicians. The main reasons for preferring online training is because it’s easy to access with no travel required which is a big time saver for us.
SamoaTel Operations and Engineering Department decided to use PTT LearnTelecoms courses as additional training materials for junior staff, refresher for long service technicians and also as references to update the knowledge of field engineers. The content of each course suits our requirements and we have found PTT training attractive and the presentation of the materials is simple to understand.”
