Learnframe Press Release
Franklin Covey Co. Partners With Learnframe™ to Create Franklin Covey e-Learning Center
Online Learning Center Advances Franklin Covey's Initiative of Helping Customers Achieve Productivity in the Digital Age™

Salt Lake City & Draper, Utah - Nov. 9, 2000 - Franklin Covey Co. (NYSE:FC), a world-renowned leader of learning and performance solutions, today announced its partnership with Learnframe™, a leading developer of KnowledgE-Commerce™ and e-Learning infrastructure technologies. The partnership has produced the Franklin Covey Learning Center on www.franklincovey.com and www.franklinplanner.com, using Learnframe's exclusive technology for the e-learning center's infrastructure.

The new Franklin Covey Learning Center, accessed through the Franklin Covey Effectiveness Zone on Franklin Covey's Web sites, utilizes Learnframe's Pinnacle Learning Manager™ (PLM). The combination of Learnframe's Pinnacle Learning Manager (PLM), an e-Learning infrastructure, and Learnframe's learning center technology, a knowledge commerce front end, creates what Learnframe today calls KnowledgeE-Commerce, the point where e-Learning and e-Commerce converge.

Franklin Covey customers will utilize the Franklin Covey Learning Center to improve their personal and organizational productivity and effectiveness. Customers may enroll in and purchase exclusive Franklin Covey interactive, online training courses, establish and manage a training plan, analyze learning performance and track learning effectiveness.

Through the Learning Center, Franklin Covey is adding another element to its Productivity in the Digital Age™ initiative. This new initiative harnesses the capabilities of leading technologies, training and effectiveness tools to significantly advance its mission of providing complete productivity solutions to its customers. Productivity in the Digital Age was created in response to the evolving needs and demands of its customers who are stressed and inundated with information overload from unlimited sources, both at work and at home, and are seeking ways to organize the information and maintain focus and productivity.

The initiative offers customers the ability to capture, synchronize and act on critical information received from a variety of mediums and tools, such as paper, desktop PC, handheld PDAs and phones, online planning tools and training - anytime, anywhere. Customers have the added advantage of being able to print their tasks, calendars and personal goals onto customizable pages to fit their paper-based Franklin Planners™, thereby linking the power of technology with the practicality of paper.

Mike Memmott Sr., CEO and chairman of Learnframe said, "We are pleased to be working with a global organization like Franklin Covey. Their experience in providing leadership and productivity solutions, combined with our extensive e-Learning solutions, create a powerful learning and productivity tool."

Adam Merrill, director of online learning for Franklin Covey said, "Learnframe's technology and experience appealed to us, and we are excited to bring the Franklin Covey Learning Center to our clients. The online training courses we offer on our Web sites will assist our clients in being more productive in the digital age."

On Nov. 20, Franklin Covey's Learning Center will offer eight online training courses from Franklin Covey's Bite-Size Learning Library™.
