THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE RENEWS PARTNERSHIP WITH LEARN.COM BASED ON SUCCESS DELIVERING COMPLIANCE TRAINING TO 40,000 GLOBAL EMPLOYEES IN 12 BUREAUS

SUNRISE, FL – June 12, 2008 -- Learn.com®, a leader in on-demand workforce development and productivity, today announced that the United States Department of Commerce has renewed its partnership with the company based on the tremendous success the agency has experienced in rolling out government required compliance training to its over 40,000 global employees in 12 bureaus. This accomplishment follows one of the fastest LMS launches in U.S. federal government history when the LearnCenter platform was deployed to the department's exceptionally large employee base in just 12 weeks. The contract was originally awarded and has now been renewed by the U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC) through the Office of Personnel Management (OPM/GoLearn).

"We are excited the Department of Commerce has exercised its contract option with Learn.com. The fact that the DOC staff has completed over 99,900 Web-based courses and more than 6,680 instructor-led training sessions over the past 12 months is a testament of their commitment to expand training and development opportunities across the department, and maximize the potential of the LearnCenter platform to support that critical strategic goal," said Michael Fitzgerald, Senior Vice President of Government Operations at Learn.com.

The U.S. Department of Commerce will utilize the LearnCenter platform to provide the environment that will enable the DOC to reach higher levels of organizational and management excellence agency-wide and ensure competency in leadership and in mission-critical occupations.
