Press Release Body: Mountain View, CA - July 14, 2008 - Expertus (www.expertus.com),
a global leader in helping companies fuel business growth by maximizing the value of
training investments, and Training Industry, Inc. (www.trainingindustry.com), an
objective and trusted expert on the marketplace for learning, today announced that
they have launched a new survey, Internal Marketing for Corporate Training Programs
(http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=KXsHxgu3osgtuGXNh72nhw_3d_3d). This study
allows internal corporate training and development professionals to share how they
market training programs to internal employees and what works best to bolster
participation. The survey closes Friday, July 18 at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time (UTC/GMT
- 4).

In exchange for their participation, respondents will get a copy of the complete
results, which will also be shared on Expertus and Training Industry, Inc. websites
in mid-August. Expertus, which has worked closely with several global organizations
to develop promotional programs, is interested in collecting additional best
practices within learning departments.

"Everyone talks about running training like a business, but organizations often
overlook the marketing of products and services to the end user," said Ramesh
Ramani, Founder and CEO of Expertus. "Our experience indicates that many successful
learning leaders have a marketing plan in place to support their training
organization, and our goal is to discuss the best practices in this niche of the
learning space."

The online survey, launched today, is intended only for training and development
professionals in internal corporate training departments (not training companies or
consultants).

"The skill set of a learning executive is rapidly evolving, requiring business
acumen in addition to a passion for education," added Doug Harward, CEO of Training
Industry, Inc. "For certain training programs, marketing is often under-utilized as
a business tool due to lack of time and knowledge or resources. This research will
reveal what organizations are currently doing and what they find works best."
