Global Workforce Survey Reports 7 of 10 Employees Improperly Trained

RICHMOND, KY -A global eLearning supplier for WealthBridge Connect, SkillSoft,
Inc., recently released the findings of a global survey indicating seven out of 10
workers reported they had not received proper training before being asked to
accomplish a task.

"These findings are not that surprising," said Dr. J. Gregory Gillum, Chief Learning
Officer of WealthBridge Connect. "In fact, this study simply reinforces what we
already know is happening in the workforce, and the need for training. Management
training is inadequate, and there is a clear and defined need for customized
eLearning platforms, training tools, and applications that combine competency with
speed of delivery."

The global workforce survey of 6,100 respondents (2,100 from Europe and 2,000 from
the US) was conducted by OnePoll, an online market research company, and took place
between October 2007 and June 2008.

Most managers in the US and Europe are consistent in their concerns. Managing
people, project management, technical tasks, and leadership were consistently ranked
in the top four problem areas in which these managers felt they were inadequately
trained.

WealthBridge Connect provides strategic planning, operational planning, executive
coaching and training, and customized eLearning platforms for entrepreneurs and
small to medium-sized corporations. WealthBridge Connect uses progressive,
multimedia tools and applications in the areas of sales and marketing, leadership
and management, new market research and analysis, marketing strength and
development, financial management and turnaround, operating systems and staff
development.
