SAN FRANCISCO, May 1, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Blue Matter is pleased to announce the launch of a new, wholly-owned subsidiary, Salience Learning. The new company is a learning and development (L&D) firm focused on the life sciences.
The Salience Learning team includes experts in adult education, as well as life science industry veterans. Using this combination of expertise, the company applies science-based educational approaches to help life science companies solve their most complex business challenges.
The company's offerings are designed to help industry professionals elevate critical thinking skills, operate more effectively in matrixed environments, leverage data more effectively to drive business results, and improve business acumen.

But it goes beyond that. We place a very strong emphasis on applying key principles of the science of learning to every program we design. That's something that's often forgotten in today's environment, yet we know it's the key to getting the highest business impact from L&D."
