ATLANTA, GA & DRAPER, UT (May 15, 2001) - Media1st™, creator of the first Video Learning Management Solution, and Learnframe™, the leading developer of KnowledgE-Commerce™ and e-Learning infrastructure technologies, today announced a strategic alliance that revolutionizes the e-Learning experience.

The partnership integrates both companies’ component-based platforms - Media1st’s interactive e-Learning solution, iNstruct^SM, and Learnframe’s Universal Knowledge platform, Nebo™. This partnership allows businesses to add compelling video-based e-Learning to any text-based application with the centralized administration, authentication and reporting capabilities of an enterprise-wide e-Learning platform.

"While the shift from traditional corporate training to e-Learning spawns substantial opportunities, it also presents associated challenges," said Nancy Tubb, senior analyst at the Delphi Group. "Integrating video-based e-Learning with an enterprise wide platform offers a way around these challenges, and serves as an impetus for e-Learning transformation."

“iNstruct successfully approximates the actual classroom environment, giving the learner an engaging and rewarding e-Learning experience,” said Mike Memmott, Sr., CEO and Chairman of Learnframe. “Learnframe’s Nebo developmental platform allows clients to select their definition for best-of-breed e-Learning solutions. This combination offers advanced e-Learning technology with media-rich delivery.”

Nebo allows enterprises to pick and choose the best applications for quick and easy integration into one complete, centrally managed e-Learning solution. iNstruct ties interactivity with streaming media to enhance the user’s e-Learning experience. It provides an easily deployable and scalable application for trainers, and delivers increased ROI for enterprises. The combined result is a centrally managed e-Learning solution that delivers content in its most compelling format and provides measurable results for a corporation’s bottom line.

“Learnframe has designed Nebo to integrate all types of content and applications, from traditional text-based e-Learning solutions to the latest video-based applications,” said Tom Doty, President and CEO of Media1st. “The partnership provides an easily deployable and scalable solution for trainers creating an intuitive, seamless and engaging e-Learning experience.”
