Charlottesville, VA (PRWEB) December 8, 2008 -- FMS Purchasing & Services, Inc. (FMS), the largest independently-owned group purchasing organization in the Southeast United States, has partnered with Silverchair Learning Systems to offer Silverchair's powerful eLearning solutions to its customers.
Silverchair's Learning Management System is a highly effective, efficient, and affordable turn-key learning program that delivers, tracks, and reports on educational programs for senior care organizations. The program provides a complete curriculum of in-service and regulatory courses required by CMS (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services) and OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration), as well as important resident care topics that specifically address the needs of long-term care providers and their employees. The system can also be customized for an organization to include material specific to its facility/facilities.
"FMS continuously seeks out partners that will help our clients realize their business goals," says Tim Gregson, President of FMS. "We're proud to work with Silverchair Learning and excited to bring the value of their eLearning system to our clients."
FMS is committed to serving the needs of its customers by saving them money while providing quality products and service. They accomplish this by building and maintaining relationships with product manufacturers and distributors that serve the customers. This increased purchasing volume, in turn, justifies larger discounts which are passed on to its customers.
"Silverchair values this new partnership with FMS," says Mike Mutka, Executive Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Silverchair Learning Systems. "They share our vision of product innovation and superior client service."
