WEST DES MOINES, IOWA, January 11, 2007 -- GeoLearning, Inc., the leading provider of Managed Learning Services and hosted performance and learning platforms, announced today that its GeoMaestro LMS Suite has been named a finalist in the “Best Corporate Learning Solution” category of the 22nd annual Codie Awards presented by the Software & Information Industry Association (SIIA). The 2007 Codie Awards will be presented at a gala event on April 17, 2007 at the historic Palace Hotel in San Francisco, CA.
Established in 1986, the Codie Awards are the standard-bearer for celebrating outstanding achievement and vision in the software, digital content and education technology industries. Through a unique combination of journalist and peer review, the Codie Awards recognize 72 categories of outstanding products and services, as well as corporate excellence and philanthropy. This year’s 367 finalists represent a wide and impressive array of technology and business excellence, passion and success. They were chosen from more that 1,200 nominations submitted by more than 600 companies, breaking the record set in the 2006 awards. Over 219 individuals in the trade press, consulting, editors, IT specialists and other neutral specialists have reviewed all of the products entered.
GeoLearning’s award-winning Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model means the GeoMaestro™ platform is delivered entirely over the Internet, eliminating all the headaches, hassles and risks associated with traditional hardware and software implementations. The Internet-hosted performance and learning management platform enables organizations to capture, create, manage and share knowledge to improve workforce productivity, accelerate critical business processes, and drive organizational performance.

“The 2007 Codie Finalists represent real winners even at this stage of the contest”, said Ken Wasch, SIIA President. “Competition is fiercer than ever and that makes selection as a Codie Finalist a real achievement. All the companies on this year’s list should feel justifiably proud of their recognition.”
