Chestnut Hill, Mass. – Sept. 21, 2017 – Area9, an adaptive learning platform that combines cognitive research and computer science, was recognized as a Hot Vendor in learning by Aragon Research, a leading research and advisory firm.

With more than 20 years of research, Area9 has identified human factors that influence learning and how to implement computer science into the process. This has led to the idea of adaptive learning and how to personalize the process in an efficient and unique training experience. The platform bridges formal and informal learning processes and allows goal-based teaching methods that maximize learning outcomes, engagement and retention of information. Many Area9 clients have reported that the time spent in training was reduced by more than 50 percent after implementing Area9’s approach.

“We’re thrilled to be recognized as influential in learning and technological advances in adaptive learning,” said Dr. Ulrik Juul Christensen, chairman of Area9 Group. “It is important for us to continue to make strides in the way that people learn and being named a ‘Hot Vendor’ will allow our platform to reach more people.”

If companies or enterprises want to increase the overall knowledge-worker effectiveness while reducing time needed to deliver training, Area9 can dramatically change the overall approach to learning.
