Cleverlearn Learning Asia, Inc. (Cleverlearn)
is a pioneer in the rapidly growing Internet-based learning
industry. Founded in the US in 1999, it aims to personalize
the learning process with the use of new technology for
easy and efficient access.
With its mission statement of "Defining
the Next Generation of Learning Systems," Cleverlearn's
primary focus is teaching English as a Second Language
(ESL) at the speed and flexibility of online communication.
Cleverlearn supplements and complements
course-based instruction with its Clever tools and services,
whether online or in a classroom setting. A unique learning
and knowledge map is designed by Cleverlearn's e-learning
specialists to manage the learners' individual competence
and feedback, through a portfolio of progressive communication
techniques.
Cleverlearn solutions are designed
to respond to the growing need for English as the common
language in the new global economic order. The phenomenon
of Globalization has integrated the world markets to an
unprecedented extent: for one, the emergence of a European
Union; and another, Asia’s greater role in the western
economy. Thus, a common language of understanding, adjustment
and assimilation is needed.
Worldwide, English has become the
major language of news and information, from business
and government to educational materials and pop culture.
About two-thirds of scientists read operating instructions
in English and three-quarters of the world's correspondence
are in English.
 Cleverlearn
was founded on the market forecast that computers and
the Internet are the professors of the 21st Century.
According to education experts, computer-based
learning will have a market share of about 20 percent
from now up to year 2005 in Germany alone. Cleverlearn
projects growth rates up to 80 percent within the period.
Computer-based training (CBT), web-based training (WBT)
and open distance learning through video tele-conferencing
are the proven most effective forms of e-learning today.
Electronic educational materials
for training and structured information increase the access
to knowledge and information as the Internet shortens
the distance and integrates almost every aspect of human
activity at a much lesser cost.
Modern-day working
nomads can literally move their workplaces anywhere they
go within Internet connections and be regularly updated
with public or corporate news, services and information
from their PCs, laptops or mobile phones. Employees can
now upgrade their knowledge and skills without having
to leave their workplaces and at a shorter span of time.
Cleverlearn innovates on these approaches
to broaden the access, scope and viability of teaching
English as a Second Language to individuals or groups
via their personal computers or mobile devices, online
or offline.
