IRWIN wanted a self assessment eLearning solution for their employees. They needed the quiz to encompass multiple categories of product knowledge, collect learner specific information, and promote the next stages of the learning process.

Hardly Square created IRWIN IQ. IRWIN IQ is an eLearning web application that gives IRWIN’s employees the opportunity to assess their IRWIN IQ across multiple levels of product knowledge. The eLearning solution not only quizzes the learner, but also promotes traditional classroom training within video throughout the quiz. At the end of the quiz learners can see what questions they got wrong, what the right answers were, print their certificate, and get recommendations for the next level of their training. The training manager can also download all the learner specific results directly to a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet.

IRWIN Industrial Tools understood that traditional training methods were expensive and less effective than an eLearning solution. IRWIN faced an enormous hurdle keeping their employees well educated and up-to-date on their substantial product line. It was a daunting task considering their employees are dispersed across the globe. They needed a solution and fast.

An Added Edge

Hardly Square created LearnIrwin.com, a zero cost per learner eLearning platform that extensively lowers training expenditures. IRWIN now benefits from heightened retention rates, which lead to greater business results, and ultimately a larger market share. IRWIN has gained an edge on their competition with training that features custom designed Flash courses with voice narration, custom application photography, specific learner profiles, an administrator dashboard, and result tracking that can easily be exported to Microsoft Excel.

The Lubrano Companies and its affiliates are established leaders in the financial services, human resources, and health & welfare industries. The Lubrano companies were growing fast and they needed concise branding that spoke to their level of professionalism, while also tying in each affiliate under the The Lubrano Company umbrella.

An Added Edge

As you can see, Hardly Square created a branding strategy that visually tied in each affiliates’ identity under The Lubrano Company umbrella. The design also allows each brand to maintain its own objectivity. The idea that APL and HR in Tune are connected isn’t apparent until visually represented with The Lubrano Companies identity. This essential “A Ha” moment is necessary when explaining the business structure of The Lubrano Companies during presentations to potential strategic partners.
