HONG KONG, Nov. 24 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- NetDimensions, a global provider of performance, knowledge and learning management systems, announces that DAK Americas LLC, a leading producer of PET Resin, Polyester Staple Fibers and raw materials for polyester-based products, will be transitioning their training programs and implementing the NetDimensions’ Enterprise Knowledge Platform (EKP).

"We will use EKP to manage and significantly improve monthly federally mandated Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) training, HR, technical and management training from third parties, as well as internally developed career-advancement training to further skills of operations and maintenance workers," says Jay Tyo, Project Manager of DAK Americas.

"Our training programs called for a system that could support job skills training and testing, as well as third party training," explains Tyo. "Our current system was not able to effectively handle our needs, as well as our expanded requirements. NetDimensions solutions provided the system features, capabilities and performance we required, as well as the technical support we needed."

"We are glad DAK Americas chose EKP to deliver their training initiatives at their U.S. facilities, and eventually at their divisions in Mexico and Argentina," says Eric Miller, NetDimensions Director of Sales. "It is our goal to provide the technology for global businesses who actively promote high-performance, regulatory compliant work cultures."
