Xpublisher selected as core Publishing System for ifb

In the future, ifb will use Xpublisher to centrally create, manage in a media-neutral manner, and publish the call for proposals and applications for its seminars.

The Institute of advanced Training for Works Councils (ifb GmbH & Co. KG), based in Seehausen am Staffelsee, is regarded as the market leader among private and union-independent seminar hosts for work councils and employee representatives in Germany. Around 170 full-time employees and 900 freelancers provide a wide range of educational courses on more than 260 different topics for around 55,000 participants per year.

The seminars are announced and promoted both via an comprehensive print catalog and via the official ifb website - and this is where Xpublisher takes over. In the future, the content for the catalog will be created, managed and published centrally via Xpublisher in a media-independent manner. The ifb website will access the content automatically via a REST API interface, ensuring the content is always up-to-date and accurate.

We at Xpublisher are pleased to welcome ifb as a partner and that we can contribute to the further education of works councils and employee representatives in Germany with our web-based publishing system.
