URL(s): ProfitLine
SAN DIEGO, Sept. 13 -- ProfitLine(R), Inc., today announced
the formation of a partnership with the College of Extended Studies at San
Diego State University (SDSU) to develop a Telecommunications Certificate
Program for ProfitLine employees. Through the customized program, ProfitLine
employees will take university-level courses to further their depth of
understanding about telecom services and technology and keep pace with the
rapidly changing landscape of the telecommunications industry.
The certificate program features a multi-course curriculum that integrates
telecommunications technologies and puts them into perspective with management
and policy/regulatory principles. Graduates of the program will understand
how the latest telecommunications technology applies directly to business
needs and will receive a professional certificate in telecommunications. The
program also features a customized course about ProfitLine and its role in the
industry.
"We are excited to be partnering with a progressive company like
ProfitLine," said William Byxbee, dean of SDSU's College of Extended Studies.
"Our program in telecommunications examines the most recent developments in
this rapidly changing industry, and is designed so that graduates of the
program can make their companies more successful and profitable."
The program will provide ProfitLine employees with a foundational
education in telecommunications, as well as targeted and job-specific training
that will benefit them while it helps the company deliver its services more
effectively. The first group of participants began the series of courses this
week, and should complete the certificate program by March 2003.
"Partnering with SDSU is a very exciting win for our employees, a win for
the company, and a win for our clients," said Rick Valencia, president and CEO
of ProfitLine. "We believe that providing our employees a customized
curriculum from a world-class university will help us attract better talent,
improve the knowledge base of our existing team, and enable us to provide even
better service to our growing base of enterprise clients."
