The Hertz Corporation has selected Affiliated Computer Services, Inc. to provide learning process outsourcing services to meet Hertz’ human resource transformational objectives on a global basis.

Under the five-year contract, ACS will provide curriculum redesign and management as well as content development and delivery; learning administration; managed learning technology and vendor management within a shared services environment. The contract was reflected in ACS’ fourth quarter fiscal year 2008 results.

Our services for designing, building, implementing and operating large-scale, multi-lingual learning solutions will enable Hertz to realize immediate and long term cost savings and business value.”
Hertz, realigning its HR services, also recently announced that it was turning over a significant portion of its recruitment services to CDI and Spherion.
