Northboro, MA -- May 15, 2001 - IntraLearn Software Corporation,
a leading supplier of configurable e-Learning applications for the mid-sized enterprise,
announced today their new membership into the premier Microsoft Gold Certified Partner
Program. IntraLearn is the first and only learning management system (LMS) provider
to achieve this status.
Membership in the program is awarded to independent companies that have proven their
expertise and product competency through a rigorous certification process and customer
references when delivering Microsoft-based technologies to mid- to large-market
enterprise customers. In addition, a company must have a Windows-2000 certified
product to fit into the Software Products category of the program.
The relationship provides IntraLearn with increased Microsoft product licenses for
internal and marketing use, extensive technical training and support, access to
prerelease product information and program codes, sales and marketing resources,
and direct communications with Microsoft staff. IntraLearn will also receive elite
brand identification, prioritized listing on customer referrals and the ability
to participate in joint marketing opportunities with Microsoft.
"As a Gold Certified Partner in the Software Products category, IntraLearn has satisfied
rigorous certification criteria and proven its expertise in e-Learning by providing
real world solutions to more than 450 organizations. This designation has more stringent
requirements than the Partner certification and offers greater Microsoft support
for members," said Rosa Garcia, general manager of Microsoft Partner Programs.
"We have worked closely with Microsoft in the past in accelerating the widespread
adoption of e-learning, making sure that our products worked together seamlessly.
Our commitment to Microsoft products, and extensive eLearning expertise, has enabled
IntraLearn to qualify for this elite Gold Status. Today, IntraLearn is the only
Windows-2000 certified e-learning management system available. If you run a Microsoft
shop, and want to implement e-learning, then IntraLearn is the only way to go. Gold
Partner status becomes a key selling point for the company," said Peter Banhazl,
Executive Vice President, IntraLearn Software Corporation.
