This new name underscores Kaplan Learning Technologies' commitment to being a "best in class" provider of solutions for rapid eLearning, enterprise software training solutions, and performance-based testing.

"We are very excited to introduce the new name of Kaplan Learning Technologies," said Brian Sholly, President of Kaplan Learning Technologies. "This name, we believe, best portrays our leadership position and reflects our company's continued passion and focus on providing cutting-edge technologies for the eLearning and IT testing sectors."

In the past five years, Kaplan IT Learning expanded its products and services to meet the ever-growing needs of companies and organizations worldwide. With the acquisition of STT Trainer in 2005, KITL has been a leading supplier of enterprise software training solutions. Perform IT, added in the spring of 2009, established a performance-based testing component. In early 2010, with the acquisition of Atlantic Link, Kaplan IT Learning solidified its position as a complete provider for any eLearning need.

"With these expansions, the 'IT Learning' business unit name no longer fully represented the company's complete offerings," Sholly continued. "As a result, Kaplan Learning Technologies was selected as the new name to more closely align with the business mission of continued expansion into other technology learning areas."
