Valamis Embarks on a New Partnership with Lambda Chi Alpha Fraternity
Valamis, the global leader in digital learning technologies and workforce development, is embarking on a new partnership with Lambda Chi Alpha Fraternity, one of the largest men’s general fraternities in North America with more than 300,000 initiated members at more than 300 universities, to revolutionize their learning network with the Valamis Complete Learning Platform.
The new partnership will allow Lambda Chi Alpha to implement a fresh, intuitive, and personal learning experience which will offer the opportunity to enhance brotherhood through learning networks. Like never before, our suite of learning products will connect every Chapter in North America.
“Valamis will allow us to revolutionize how we implement and integrate learning. We can now rapidly author and design content, create social experiences through cross-Chapter and Alumni engagement, drive competition through leaderboards and challenges, and receive meaningful reporting to inform future learning,” said Simon Taylor PhD, Chief Learning Officer, Lambda Chi Alpha Fraternity.
“Fresh, intuitive and personal, the Valamis platform ultimately offers us the opportunity to enhance brotherhood through learning networks. Like never before, our suite of learning products will connect every Chapter in North America,” stated Taylor.
Increasing learning motivation
A main objective for the new partnership will be focused on revolutionizing how Lambda Chi Alpha implements and integrates learning content to build an experience that motivates learners, provokes debate, and generates a sense of challenge and progress.
“Aside from their excellent product, we chose Valamis based on their level of interest and experience,” said Taylor. “Unlike other vendors, Valamis showed a desire to understand Lambda Chi Alpha, and tailor their offering.
“On hearing that competition, gamification and reporting were extremely important to us, they came back with multiple solutions. They were looking for a partnership, not a sale. The Valamis experience was also a deciding factor. Through their strong links to Sweden’s gaming community, Valamis knows what engages young people. And, as we start the onboarding process, I would have to say we 100% made the right decision,” said Taylor.
“We are excited to partner with Lambda Chi Alpha in building future leaders through a combination of engaging learning opportunities, social dimension, and our Valamis learning technology. During the selection process, we discussed the use cases in great detail and saw the strength of Valamis technology in a world with distributed learning organization, modern learners, and a need for detailed insights about the learning. Since the first meetings, Valamis technology and the way of learning at Lambda Chi Alpha felt like a perfect match,” said Mika Kuikka, President of Valamis.
“Together we are setting up the stage and best practices for professional and leadership development in all fraternal organizations.”
