TROY, Mich., May 7 /PRNewswire/ -- O/E Learning, Inc. (O/E) was recognized for excellence in the education/training category by the Horizon Interactive Awards - a leading international interactive media awards competition.
O/E entered two online courses in the sixth annual competition: Defensive Driving and Standard First Aid, CPR, and AED. Both online courses, developed by O/E for Professional Development Associates (PDA) and the National Safety Council (NSC), were evaluated by an international panel of judges and won bronze level awards.
"O/E Learning's interactive design and programming execution of the online courses consistently met or exceeded our expectations," says Wade Mezey, President of PDA. "In addition, O/E's project management, sense of urgency, and quality processes ensure that we introduce our products to market in a timely manner."
The newly updated 8th Edition Defensive Driving Course (DDC Online) features an engaging format and delivers the same quality content as the NSC's 8-hour classroom program. The average, on-the-clock injury-related vehicle crash costs an employer $74,000. To prevent accidents and avoid these costs, more than 30 Fortune 100 companies have chosen DDC Online to train their employees on defensive driving techniques.
The Standard First Aid, CPR, and AED online course targets emergency response teams, safety personnel, supervisors, and other individuals requiring certification in emergency care. The NSC involves more than 70 national medical, health, and safety organizations to review, contribute to, or endorse their programs - which reflect the latest protocols and techniques and meet all OSHA requirements.
The 2007 Horizon Interactive Awards Competition saw nearly 1000 internationally represented entries and showcases the best interactive media solutions including Web sites, CDs and DVDs, online ads, videos, education/training courses, and more. "The 2007 competition was a fantastic display of creativity and effective communication blended with technical excellence," said Mike Sauce, founder of the Horizon Interactive Awards.
