PurpleTrain.com Launches New Website - It's Got The Look!

PurpleTrain.com, the e-Learning service provider by the Informatics Group, is proud to announce the launch of its new user-friendly website. The website with its navigability is reflective of PurpleTrain's aim to provide lifelong education anytime, anywhere.

The PurpleTrain website primarily serves two main categories of people - existing students and future students. Existing PurpleTrain students will find that despite the new look and feel, the website continues to offer the same high level of support in all aspects of e-learning. Students will be able to find what they need from sections on examination information to course materials available for downloads. They are also able to do everything at the click of a button - from taking their tests to paying their school fees online.

A myriad of information is also available for those planning to further their education through e-learning. The website provides detailed information on all courses offered on PurpleTrain.com, featuring all facets of the courses from fees, schedules, opportunities for advancement, assessment structure and entry requirements. The benefits of each course are also stated clearly, but don't just take our word for it, read through the Testimonials page to see what our students say!

Besides being aesthetically appealing, a new feature added in is the contest column. Contests will be held monthly, with a variety of prizes to be won. Just answer 5 simple questions in this month's contest and you stand to win attractive prizes!

The new PurpleTrain website is up and running today so swing on by and join in the fun!
