ENSPIRE LEARNING RELEASES ONLINE FINANCE CURRICULUM

Fluent in Finance Teaches Business Finance to Non-Financial Managers

AUSTIN, Texas - Aug. 1, 2008 - Enspire Learning answered the call for interactive business finance training with the release of Fluent in Finance, an online curriculum teaching financial acumen.

Fluent in Finance was designed to provide non-financial managers with a convenient and effective learning experience. Interactive tutorials are complemented by online classes led by experienced finance instructors. The curriculum teaches unit economics, break-even analysis, cost accounting, and financial statements. Learners will also distinguish between cash flow and profitability.

"We believe that understanding finance is a key to success in the business world regardless of title," commented Shon Bayer, vice president of products at Enspire Learning . "In today's competitive marketplace business decisions are evaluated not just by 'gut' assessment but rigorous analysis of costs and benefits."

In addition to instruction, students practice financial skills through a business simulation, Finance Challenge. The simulation requires players to apply knowledge and make decisions guiding a simulated company through the marketplace.

"A lot of finance education misses the mark because it doesn't allow users to apply what they've learned," added Bayer. "By coupling the curriculum with a simulation, learners internalize financial concepts and become literate more quickly."

There are three editions of Fluent in Finance: Basic, Complete, and Live. Basic covers the essentials of business finance through a blend of interactive tutorials and case studies. Complete Edition offers an in-depth look at business finance by addressing additional concepts, using more scenarios and examples. Fluent in Finance Live is the most robust edition, including the complete curriculum, instructor-led webinars and tutoring, and Finance Challenge.
