Austin Business Journal's Fastest 50 Growing Private Companies
"It is an honor for Alchemy to be recognized in the Fast 50 by the Austin Business Journal. Our employees work very hard to ensure satisfied customers and we have very high renewal rates as a result of these efforts. Our great software products and service has allowed Alchemy to grow so that over a 1,000,000 people per year are using our various products." said Jeff Eastman, CEO of Alchemy Systems.
Most of Alchemy's growth has been attributed to success in relatively un-served market niches that need affordable resources to improve the education of their workforce. To meet these needs in commercial industries, Alchemy offers the SISTEM training platform. SISTEM is used to provide food-manufacturing facilities currently facing tremendous liabilities associated with food safety, stricter regulations and rapidly changing employee demographics, with a powerful tool for efficiently delivering and documenting critical compliance training. SISTEM is also widely used by government workforce boards to educate job seekers on the soft-skills training required for entry-level job applicants. Since its release in 2003, SISTEM has been used to train over a quarter of a million people in the North American workforce.
Another significant part of Alchemy's success has been in the academic market where Alchemy supplies a professional development management system (PDMS) called Avatar PDMS. Avatar PDMS supports school district's initiatives to retain and nurture its personnel through online professional development programs. By automating the functionality of creating, delivering and managing their professional development activities, school districts are freed up to focus more on creating Highly Qualified staff and affecting student improvement efforts. Avatar PDMS is now in use nationwide by close to a half a million teachers and administrators.
