The ABCs of payments

TDG-Phenix Inc., a payments and treasury services and consulting firm headquartered in Brentwood, Tenn., is offering a new online course called Introduction to Payments. The three-part series will begin March 13, 2008. Each session will be 90 minutes long.

The series employs the firm's e-learning system and consists of weekly webinars, quizzes, discussion forums and assignments. Larry DePalma, President of TDG-P, said the course will provide students a solid foundation of business-to-business, consumer-to-business and peer-to-peer payment options – from automated clearing house to card-based payments to real-time systems.

TDG-P implemented a new course management system using a learning paradigm called social contructionism. This allows students to interact with each other while they are in the system and have their work evaluated. The system is designed to boost retention and comprehension.

The e-course format enables students to attend class in the comfort of their own offices. Additionally, the resources on the company's Web site allow them to proceed at their own pace. For more information, visit www.tdgphenix.com or e-mail info@tdgphenix.com.
