Boxwood Technology and Blue Sky Broadcast Enter Strategic Partnership
HERNDON, Va. --(Business Wire)--
Boxwood Technology, a leading provider of online career centers and
career-related services to associations, and Blue Sky Broadcast, a
leader in delivering live and on-demand rich media learning solutions,
have announced a strategic partnership for the delivery of Career
Learning Centers to the association market. The Career Learning Center
is an online portal for the delivery of career management training
resources that will be available to Boxwood customers.
"We are very excited to launch our partnership with Blue Sky Broadcast
as we really see a tight and logical linkage between career center
services and learning solutions. These services work together to help
members achieve their professional development goals, one of the most
important reasons members join associations," said John Bell, CEO of
Boxwood.
An enhanced version of the Career Learning Center will give associations
the ability to create and deliver their own member specific content to
further empower job seekers. Associations will be able to run live,
online events as well as provide testing and certification with this
version.
The partnership also includes the planned integration of the Boxwood and
Blue Sky Broadcast technology platforms. Visitors to career centers will
be presented with educational programs while visitors to the learning
centers will be presented wit job openings. Exposure to a wider set of
association products and services can help increase member engagement,
enhance relevance and drive more revenue.
"This partnership will allow Blue Sky Broadcast and Boxwood to work
together seamlessly to help associations rapidly create and deliver
content to their members," said Philip G. Forte, President of Blue Sky
Broadcast. "This is truly a fully integrated solution that will provide
increased value to many associations and job seekers."
