Live eLearning and Collaboration Environment Supports Teaching, Learning, and Collaboration for Organization, Partners, and Clients

Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, (August 23, 2006) — Elluminate, Inc., a leading provider of live eLearning and web collaboration solutions for the real-time organization, announced today that TERC, a Cambridge Mass.-based education nonprofit, has selected Elluminate Live!® Academic Edition™ as a tool for providing online education and professional development workshops for teachers. TERC will also use Elluminate Live! to facilitate project meetings with museum and technology partners throughout the United States. In addition, the organization will be renovating its office space later this year, displacing about one-third of its staff at a time. With Elluminate, employees both on and off site can continue to communicate and collaborate via virtual meetings.

"We are a 95% Mac shop at TERC, so the solution we selected had to be completely cross platform for administrators, moderators, and users," said David Libby, Director of Information Systems at TERC. "Having a tool that utilizes a great deal of bandwidth is problematic and treats those users with slower modems as second-class citizens. Elluminate's low-bandwidth connectivity really levels the playing field. Other key features for us include the ability to record and archive sessions, the math symbol library, compatibility with the SMART Board™ interactive whiteboard, and integration with eCollege course management system."

"Being able to outsource the application hosting to Elluminate really simplifies life, and installation is easy, even for those users who aren't techies," added Libby. "It's a big advantage not having to ship a disk or require a manual software download. Elluminate Live! was the one product in the space that really fit what we wanted to do, and its competitive pricing helped make our choice an easy one. It's an important tool in our arsenal."

"We welcome TERC to our growing family of Elluminate Live! academic users," said Maurice Heiblum, President of Elluminate USA, Inc. "We commend TERC for its support of innovative math and science education for K12 and beyond, and like them, we are committed to providing support for rich and engaging learning opportunities for all students, including underserved student populations."
