editas

One of the greatest assets of any organisation is the cumulative knowledge and experience of its people, but how good are your colleagues and partners at sharing what they think and know?

editas is a professional service that has been created specifically to promote and support this vital process, using powerful web-based tools developed by an expert group of education, training and networking professionals.

Quite simply, editas will dramatically enhance the efficiency, effectiveness and reach of knowledge sharing within even the most geographically dispersed groups, enabling your people to share problems - and solutions.

From organizing employee networks to supporting mentors, managing staff who are working remotely to co-ordinating partnership programmes, editas provides the channels you need to communicate information, ideas and goals.

"The editas system has measurably empowered those working on the front line of our information and advice outreach programme."

"In our evaluation, editas was instrumental in delivering annual savings of £60,000, deriving from greater operational efficiencies and a reduction in staff time and effort spent researching issues already addressed elsewhere."
