Webqem attended the AHRI National Convention in Melbourne on the 10^th and 11^th May. It is the biggest HR and people management event in the Asia Pacific region. We had the opportunity to share new ideas and converse with HR professionals from all over the world.

At the exhibition we demonstrated Adobe Connect and of the shelf training with Adobe eLearning suite. Many delegates from the event were very interested in how they could cut down travel costs with Adobe Connect and create eLearning experiences that engage audiences with interactivity, video, audio, and powerful visuals.  These products have been proven successful, especially in the current economic climate.

webqem would like to thank AHRI for inviting us and allowing us to share our opinions and expertise. We look forward to attending next year.
