The new distance learning solutions provide employers with on-demand, online training capabilities for first-level management personnel. Designed to help employers further reduce their unemployment costs, the offerings include the convenience of desktop elearning with the ability to track progress and effectiveness of the online training. The systematic elearning solutions enhance the skills needed at critical places within an organization to improve efficiencies and increase margins.

"Controlling unemployment costs is everyone's job," says Ed Chaffin, president of TALX UC eXpress. "Whether you're a manager working at the headquarters location or a front line supervisor, it is critical to understand the unemployment process. That understanding will significantly reduce costs for the organization as a whole. TALX now delivers high-value online training content on demand where it's needed the most - in the field."

TALX developed the new distance learning offerings based on input from employers. Clients had requested online training solutions that would increase compliance and improve their ability to manage unemployment claims. As an industry leader in controlling and reducing unemployment costs, TALX has become a source to identify areas for improvement as well as distribute cost-saving online training and education to individual locations to reduce unemployment costs.
