In an affirmation of its claim to being the
largest e-testing provider in the Human Performance arena, Performance
Assessment Network, Inc. ("pan") recently surpassed the 100 +
e-Testing products milestone.
"In less than a year pan has
accumulated and made available in our patent-pending on-line system the largest
catalogue of standardized tests from multiple vendors in the test and
measurement industry. No one else can offer the assessment professional so many
testing products in so many different categories in one convenient on-line
office," said pan CEO David Pfenninger.
pan currently has 117 tests available in twelve categories for purchase and
administration at www.pantesting.com. With approximately
250 additional tests, assessments, and surveys under license and in
development, pan will be broadening its focus to include "hard
skills" assessments such as those used in the IT industry, and will be
marketing clinical health care and standardized educational testing products as
well. In addition, pan provides "private label" e-Testing hosting
services for numerous government, corporate, and measurement industry clients
in the U.S., U.K., and Canada. "Our e-Testing technology is pervasive,"
Pfenninger observed. "Customers look at what we have available in terms of
product and price and rapidly conclude that they dont want to try and build
such a system themselves, nor do they find any comparable outsource options."
"Our expertise in web-enabling tests is
unsurpassed in this industry. We are now able to bring products on-line in a
very short period of time and at low cost regardless of their complexity -
due to the experience weve have gained over the last year with so many
different clients," observed pan CTO Chris Hester.
"With over 1000 registered users, the largest
e-Testing catalogue, and a system that is unparalleled in its secure and
reliable performance, pan has revolutionized the Human Capital
assessment industry", commented pan CMO Greg Lamb. Lamb added,
"We are beginning to see imitators enter the market, but we feel right now that
we have a lead that will be hard to surpass. The key for us is to keep adding
to our catalogue and continue to offer our customers the best support in the
industry."
