USWeb Learning Chooses Vortex as its Premier San Diego Training Center
|
August 19, 1998, San Diego, CA – Vortex Data Systems, San
Diego’s premier provider of technical training for Microsoft and Novell is
pleased to announce they are the first education center in San Diego
selected to deliver the USWeb Learning (USWL) Certified Professional
Program. This new certification program provides comprehensive development
paths for organizations and individuals who need to enhance their expertise
in the use of Internet technologies. "What better company to bring a
new certification to the marketplace than USWeb Learning. Carolyn Rose,
USWeb Learning’s CEO, is the person that virtually invented and developed
IT Certification" said Paul Christiansen, President and CEO of Vortex
Data Systems. With curriculum and certification paths that support true
Web-related job tasks, the program provides real-world knowledge that
improves quality and productivity on the job. This works to the benefit of
Internet professionals and the organizations that employ them.
Due to today's sophisticated requirements, organizations can no longer
rely on the single "Webmaster." USWL has been working at Internet
speed to bring to market a comprehensive Internet training program oriented
around the primary functional areas necessary to build and maintain a
mission-critical web site. According to Paul Christiansen, "In a matter
of months the old Webmaster has been replaced with a high-level development
team consisting of graphic artists, security specialists, infrastructure
experts, business development executives all managed by a web architect. The
entire structure of the certification program recognizes the unique skill
areas that are needed."
Vortex has identified this training and certification program as the
pre-eminent vendor-independent Web training program. "USWL does not
replace existing vendor and product specific certifications. Rather it
supplements them by directly incorporating them into the mainstream of a new
class of certification" said Catherine Bristol, Education Manager. It
is extremely comprehensive and is based on the needs of professional
Internet development teams. Organized by key areas of expertise, the USWeb
Learning Certified Professional program corresponds to the creative,
technical and strategic functions that are needed to support
Internet-related projects. Within each area, individuals must pass an exam
that validates their mastery of both skills-based and product-specific
knowledge.
For the past 14 years, Vortex has been dedicated to helping San Diego
businesses maintain their leading edge by uniting people and networking
technology. Vortex Data Systems is one of the leading sources of technical
