Sumtotal Systems, a global provider of talent and learning management solutions,
and HP Education Services have deployed Sumtotal TotalLMS 7.2 for Singapore
Prison Service (SPS). TotalLMS is an enterprise software system for delivering
and analysing learning over the internet. The SPS also purchased
Totalcollaboration, which is Sumtotal?s software for capturing and disseminating
knowledge.

As part of Singapore?s Ministry of Home Affairs, SPS provides for the safe
custody and rehabilitation of offenders as well as education. The service
consists of uniformed officers and civilian staff, including psychologists,
counselors and medical personnel.

With e-learning delivered via Sumtotal?s software, prison staff spread across 14
correctional institutions has online access to prison procedures and doctrines
and best practices designed to boost employee performance. The SPS felt that
e-learning could supplant some classroom training and help maximise returns on
the service?s budget.

In the coming months, SPS will convert paper-based training materials into an
electronic format for delivery and access by the SPS learner population.
