Chichester, England – May 23, 2006 – WiredRed®, a
technology leader in real-time communications software,
today announced that The Dental Channel has chosen
e/pop® Web Conferencing to teach new dental techniques
without requiring users to spend time and money
commuting to lectures. e/pop empowers The Dental
Channel, a company dedicated to professional development
for dentists, to offer its distance learning tools to
dentists located throughout the U.K., eliminating the
need to travel to special facilities for certification
training. The Dental Channel produced an award-winning
CD-ROM that is used throughout the U.K. by dentists
seeking certification in various specialized fields in
dentistry.
The Dental Channel was seeking a method by which it
could complement its existing learning materials and
make the information as available and accessible to its
client base as possible. It discovered WiredRed’s e/pop
Web Conferencing software and decided to pilot the
application.
“We decided to trial a 25-user license to first gauge
the amount of interest in the remote lectures and
secondly, to see whether the software could meet our
demands,” explains The Dental Channel MD, Andrew Gould.
e/pop offers a solution to organizations looking for a
convenient and secure form of communication. With
features such as multiparty audio and video, remote
control, record & playback and application/desktop
sharing, e/pop provides the ability to conduct online
meetings and training seminars with anyone at any time,
no matter where they are located. The technology is
ideal for organizations seeking to offer the opportunity
for career development and advancement without the
burden of travel.
“The positive feedback gained since the pilot scheme has
been so promising that we have now decided to fully
implement the technology into our system,” comments
Gould. “The beauty of e/pop is that our dentists can
gain an hours worth of education and professional
development by hearing and seeing presentations from
subject experts and interacting with the lecturer.”
“The reason that employees attend conferences is to
gather information, meet colleagues and take a break
from the office. But this is not always practical for
professions such as dentistry,” comments WiredRed U.K.
MD Tom Sloan. “The time spent traveling to and attending
such lectures is best spent back in the practice
attending to the needs of the patients. The service
being provided by The Dental Channel means they can
attend lectures that fit into their schedule.”
