THE EDCOMM GROUP BANKER’S ACADEMY UNLIMITED MAKES BANK TRAINING AFFORDABLE

(NEW YORK, NY) – March 2007 — The Edcomm Group has announced the release of Banker’s Academy Unlimited, a comprehensive training curriculum available to community banks, small retail banks, credit unions and money services businesses.

“Our goal was to come up with a vehicle to bring outstanding eLearning to community banks, small retail banks, credit unions and money services businesses,” said Edcomm’s President, Dr. Linda Eagle. “These groups share all the training needs of larger banks but don’t typically get the budget to give training the attention it deserves. They often turn to ad hoc classroom sessions and informal on-the-job training.”

Banker’s Academy Unlimited, with more than 600 banking topics, makes state-of-the-art eLearning, and high quality classroom materials available to community banks, small retail banks, credit unions and money services businesses. Training courses include Compliance, BSA/AML, Privacy, Security, Teller, Platform, Sales and Service, Lending, Mortgage, HSAs, Call Center, EEO, Code of Conduct, Ethics and many others.

Banker’s Academy Unlimited is the first such program in the industry to offer a fixed, affordable yearly price and no multi-year commitment.

Eagle said, “We are proud to bring this message to the financial services industry; if you have employees to train, we have training you can afford.”
Banker’s Academy Unlimited will include the use of Learning Link®, Edcomm’s Learning Management System (LMS).

Learning Link®, Edcomm’s state-of-the-art learning management system has an open architecture that builds on industry-standard SCORM and AICC compliance, but adds features and capabilities far beyond any competing products. Learning Link® maintains a complete record of every learning and administrative activity and offers a wide variety of customizable, real-time reports available both onscreen and in CSV formats for download and integration into any HR system. Learning Link’s servers have been issued a SAS-70 attesting to the quality of their security, business continuity and performance.
