"A driver of our success has been understanding how mobile platforms can enhance the way our customers interact with content, whether it be textually or visually," said Andrew Bowditch, the CEO at Visible Body. "Our customers include many healthcare professionals who know Jones & Bartlett Learning to be a brand that provides top quality content they can rely on. That's why this partnership is so exciting."
Visible Body has had great success creating anatomy and physiology reference and course content. This partnership extends the company's offering to include reference content for the over quarter of a million EMTs and First Responders in the United States. “It also provides an opportunity to innovate how traditional print content is offered on mobile devices,“ continued Bowditch.
