Summary: For Wendy`s Corporation - one of the country's largest quick-service
restaurant companies - ensuring the success of its LMS rollout meant first
getting feedback from Wendy`s crew members and managers across the country
through formal usability and pilot testing. Before rolling the learning solution
out to approximately 45,000 employees in 1,400 restaurants that are
multi-lingual, multi-generational and with varied levels of technology
experience, Wendy`s conducted a series of tests to assess usability, feasibility
and impact. As a result, the company was able to streamline the implementation,
increase user adoption by engaging employees in the process and reap maximum
benefits.

What Viewers will Learn:

During the webinar, presenters will share Wendy`s process for conducting
usability and pilot testing with a broad target audience spanning a wide
geography and using multiple test leads. Specific topics to be discussed
include:

* Why Wendy`s chose to conduct formal usability and pilot tests prior to
implementation
* How Wendy's conducted testing with a geographically-dispersed pilot audience
* How Wendy`s harnessed test feedback to enhance their LMS implementation and
custom e-Learning course development
