New Horizons Celebrates Its 25th Anniversary as the World Leader in the IT Training Industry



    New Horizons Worldwide, Inc., the world's largest independent IT
    training provider, today announced that it is celebrating its
    twenty-fifth year providing innovative learning solutions that
    transform businesses and help individuals reach their career goals.
    Over the last twenty-five years New Horizons has grown to be the
    global leader in the industry and is responsible for pioneering
    learning methods that have permanently changed the IT training
    landscape.

    New Horizons was founded as a one-classroom facility in 1982 and
    now exceeds 280 training centers in 56 countries. In 1982, New
    Horizons offered desktop applications training via traditional
    classroom training. Today, New Horizons has evolved its training
    offering to include Information Technology, Professional Skills,
    Healthcare, English Language as well as applications courses through
    multiple formats and delivery methods including traditional Classroom
    Learning, On-Site Learning, Online LIVE Learning, Online ANYTIME
    Learning and our newest delivery method, Mentored Learning.

    "I am proud to celebrate this landmark achievement as it
    represents our resilience in an ever-changing industry as well as the
    impact we have had on the lives of our more than twenty-five million
    students," said Mark Miller, New Horizons president and chief
    executive officer. "I credit this milestone to our unique ability to
    create innovative solutions for our clients that maximize employee
    skills, giving our customers a competitive edge, and our consumer
    programs that give our students a professional advantage."

    As a natural extension to its successful domestic training
    programs, New Horizons has continued to aggressively expand its
    international presence. New Horizons opened its first international
    center in Mexico City, Mexico in 1993. Other regions of the world
    quickly followed with openings in Asia Pacific, Africa and the Middle
    East in 1994. In 2000, New Horizons added fifty new locations in one
    year and opened its one-hundredth international location in Frankfurt,
    Germany. Today, New Horizons continues to open new centers in every
    region of the world, successfully adapting products and programs to
    suit the needs of local markets.

    "It has been a great twenty-five years but we don't plan to rest
    on the accomplishments that have made us the largest IT training
    provider in the world," said Tim Kleczka, New Horizons senior vice
    president of operations. "The technology evolution has not shown any
    signs of slowing down and New Horizons hasn't either. We will continue
    to develop innovative and flexible learning solutions, such as
    Mentored Learning, that enable our clients to keep pace and obtain
    full value from their technology investments."
