Questionmark Partners with Zeroed-In Technologies to Provide Key Measures for Tracking Organizational Results

STAMFORD, CT – October 12, 2005 – Assessment software provider Questionmark today announced that the Questionmark™ Perception™ assessment management system has been integrated with CLO Dashboard™, an innovative learning and performance dashboard system from Zeroed-In Technologies. The integration enables training and human resource managers to track where their investments are going and how well their training and talent initiatives are accomplishing an organization’s overall goals.

Through the integration, Questionmark Perception assessments not only measure knowledge and attitudes but also provide key measures that strategically align to an organization’s training and talent initiatives implemented to meet organizational goals and objectives. Results from the assessments are linked to the dashboard, which measures and monitors progress toward strategic goals, objectives and the underlying key measures and performance tasks that drive success.

The integration enables managers to:

• track and disseminate key learning indicators
• link learning outcomes to business results and trends
• receive immediate alerts and corrective actions
• eliminate manual report generation
• measure and show the value of their strategic initiatives and projects

“By linking Zeroed-In’s performance management capabilities with Perception assessments, we can help organizations measure progress and predict the outcomes of their business strategy,” says Zeroed-In President Chris Moore. “This is a powerful combination that helps learning and HR executives make better investment and operational decisions.”

“This integration reflects Questionmark’s view that assessment plays a vital role in improving performance and helping organizations measure their progress effectively,” adds Questionmark president Eric Shepherd. “The dashboard enables managers to learn from and act on the valuable real time information that assessments provide about their organizations.”
