Synchronicity Launches New Web-Based Training Powered by Vitalect

SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 24, 2001--Synchronicity, Inc. today announced a joint effort with Vitalect to provide web-based training (WBT) on Synchronicity products. The first two courses available are for end users of DesignSync® and ProjectSync®, Synchronicity's Internet-based design management and project collaboration solutions.

``The enormous complexity of modern ICs is forcing semiconductor companies to use large, multi-site design teams,'' said Mark Simon, manager of customer training at Synchronicity. ``Synchronicity is committed to customer education and with this new web-based training we can now serve our customers' most remote sites. Vitalect's eLearning program is a logical complement to our internet-based product development environment. The online courses contain the same content as our classroom courses but are available wherever a customer can open a web browser, and thus can eliminate the time and expense associated with training-related travel.''

Vitalect offers a hosted Learning Content Management System that includes course management, authoring, administration and tracking. Through Vitalect's WBT program, Synchronicity customers around the globe now can access quality web-based training whenever they want.

``Synchronicity's solutions are connecting and enhancing the productivity of electronics design teams around the world,'' said Pran Kurup, chief executive officer and president of Vitalect. ``With Vitalect's eLearning technology and content management expertise, Synchronicity can get those remote sites up to speed more rapidly.''

Availability

Web-based training courses on DesignSync and ProjectSync are available now through Synchronicity's website. Details, pricing and registration information is available at: http://www.synchronicity.com/Services/Training/wbt/wbt.html.
