LONDON -- November 15, 2007 -- The eLearning Guild, an organisation of 27,000 eLearning professionals from around the world, has awarded Questionmark™ Perception™ top honors for its assessment reporting capabilities. Questionmark was also recognised with two awards recognising market share in testing and assessment tools used by business, government and educational organisations.

Questionmark Perception, an assessment management system used to write, administer and report on surveys, quizzes, tests and exams, received the Guild Members' Choice Platinum Award for Assessment Reporting Capabilities. This award was based on responses to a survey of eLearning Guild members, who use more than 150 different testing and assessment tools. Perception also won two Gold Awards for market share: one in corporate testing and assessment tools and the other in education and government testing and assessment tools.

The awards were announced in the new Guild Research 360° Report on Measuring Success: Aligning Learning Success with Business Success. This report is based on data collected from more than 900 eLearning professionals from around the world and provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of the tools and technologies, and best-practices for measuring e-Learning success. The awards represent market share and satisfaction across all industries, company sizes, number of learners impacted, and job level of respondents.

"The Platinum Award underscores Questionmark Perception's strengths in providing a secure testing environment with locked-down-tight reporting capabilities," states Steve Wexler, the eLearning Guild's director of research and emerging technologies. "Even other vendors we interviewed cited Questionmark's strengths in administering high-stakes assessments."
