Webanywhere Expands in Chicago
The organisation has recently hired a Learning and Development Consultant, a Moodle specialist, two support engineers, and a VP of Learning Design. They are also looking to extend the team further with several technicians and business-development professionals.
Webanywhere incorporated in the US in 2010. The company chose the city of Chicago, the Midwest being the ideal location to serve customers located across the US.
With an estimated revenue of over $2 billion, the eLearning market is expected to grow to $7 billion in the next three years. LMSs are widely used in the education, technology, manufacturing, and healthcare sectors, generally by very large corporations with a turnover of over $750m and smaller companies turning over less than $5m, leaving a gap in the "middle market".
Sean Gilligan, Webanywhere CEO says, "As an LMS provider already working with large, blue-chip US organisations in key markets, from retail to healthcare and technology, we see a very large potential to draw upon our experience to support companies requiring support to implement and integrate eLearning solutions tailored to their requirements. Based on our current successes, we see a very bright future for the company in the US."
