The Football Association Invests in Quasar Anytime

London (UK), October 2011 - The Football Association (FA) has purchased an "unlimited" license to use Quasar's "Anytime" online video learning materials, which provide practical ongoing advice and guidance for those using Microsoft Office 2007.




Masterminding the rollout of the Quasar Anytime videos within the footballing world is the FA's Saty Gahir, who comments, "We employ a wide range of learning methods at the FA, and we're always looking to improve the learning materials and systems we make available to our personnel. I am extremely impressed by Quasar. It's simple to use, clear, and to the point - and I'm confident that our people will benefit substantially from its use."

According to Michael Shane, Quasar's managing director, "Quasar Anytime has the ability to upload and register people in just a matter of minutes. Indeed, registering some 2,000 people on the system takes about two minutes - so registering all of the FA's users around the country posed no problems for us or for the FA."

Covering Microsoft Office 2010, Upgrade to Microsoft Office 2010, and Microsoft Office 2007, Quasar's Anytime online videos are intended for organisations that want to gain the maximum benefit in terms of worker efficiency and effectiveness following an upgrade of the Microsoft Office suite of programs. They are also available to individuals who want to improve their Microsoft Office skills.

Anytime uses hundreds of short videos that have been specially designed to maintain the important balance of the audio, visual, and kinaesthetic elements that are necessary in any successful learning process. One of the system's benefits is that users can watch, pause, rewind, and replay the videos as many times as they like on a PC, laptop, smartphone, or mobile device - as long as there is an internet connection.

Central to the system is "My Anytime", a personal and customisable online portal to each user's learning programme that shows what online videos are available, what's been done, and what everybody else is doing.
