Because our interactive Web-based training allows users to take courses anytime, anywhere - students learn using courses that provide the information they need, just when they need it. Additionally, the company provides excellent value in self-paced, Web-based training because its subscription program offers over 800 of the most demanded courses - in interactive courses presented in real-time - for an affordable annual fee. New courses are produced very quickly, with 30-45 courses introduced every 90-days, while maintaining high quality course design and content.

The Courses

Our Web-based training library is comprised of desktop, technical, professional and practical skills courses. We currently offer over 1,900 topics.  Our courses are designed specifically for efficient presentation through internal business networks and the Internet. The company has been pioneering the development of interactive, self-paced training for fast presentation over the Web since 1996. Businesses and home office users ranging in size from start-ups to multi-national corporations, including over 1,000 large organizations, rely on our courses for their just-in-time training and reference needs.

 
Market Overview

For years large enterprise businesses have had the capital and infrastructure to provide their employees with computer, professional development, and practical skills training through instructor-led courses and computer-based courses. This has enabled them to increase their employees' knowledge - making it possible to quickly integrate new hardware and software into their operations, enabling them to increase worker productivity and corporate profits.

Enterprise businesses have been able to offer these types of courses because they can defray the costs over many "learners" - making training cost-effective. However, the costs have been too expensive for many businesses, organizations and home office users to effectively afford enterprise-quality, self-paced courses presented over internal computer networks or the Internet (commonly referred to as Web-based training or e-Learning). The lack of affordable Web-based learning has forced many businesses, organizations and home office users to seek lower-quality courses, or to do without training altogether - exacerbating the deficit of computer-literate individuals.

The Internet is leveling the playing field as the most cost-effective training delivery method with access to the highest number of potential students. International Data Corporation estimates that the U.S. corporate market for training and education presented over the Internet will increase from $550 million in 1998 to approximately $11.4 billion by 2003, an 83% compound annual growth rate. IDC divides education and training presented over the Internet into information technology and non-information technology courses. According to IDC, demand for Web-based information technology training will reach approximately $5 billion by 2003, while non-information technology training will reach approximately $6 billion by the same year.

Computer Future, Inc. and MindLeaders are leveraging the Internet, a subscription-based pricing model and channel partnerships to make enterprise-quality Web-based training an affordable and effective solution for businesses, government agencies, non-profit organizations and home office users worldwide. We offer over 500 courses specifically developed in native HTML for efficient real-time presentation making them accessible through the Internet and corporate internal networks using either the Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator browsers. Our subscription-based pricing provides access to an entire group of courses at a low cost eliminating the need to guess which courses a person might need. To make course access easy and convenient, we have established partnerships with over 1,300 Internet service providers and 125 other marketing partners. Businesses, government agencies and non-profit organizations with multiple locations benefit by using our courses to provide consistent content regardless of where employees are based. Home office users benefit by learning conveniently at home, at their own pace, through typical dial-up Internet modem connection speeds - eliminating the hassles and costs of instructor-led classes.

TrainingCenter.com is the training solution alternative for today's fast-paced business climate. Our courses provide the flexibility, convenience, cost-effectiveness and interactivity needed to meet the training needs of businesses, government agencies, non-profit organizations and home office users worldwide.
