Enspire Celebrates 5th Anniversary with Accolades and Recognition

Austin, Texas - November 01, 2006 - Enspire Learning, a leading provider of online learning solutions, recently celebrated its fifth anniversary with two Brandon Hall awards for excellence in e-learning, and recognition as one of the fastest growing companies in Central Texas.

Enspire Learning was founded with the mission to become a leading source of high quality e-learning content. "Enspire's founding team brought together a passion for education, technology, and entertainment and the belief that online learning had yet to live up to its potential," commented Enspire CEO Bjorn Billhardt. "We felt that we could change the way the people learned through the use of storytelling, simulations, and high-quality multimedia."

Since its first projects with Harvard Business School and the U.S. Department of Education, Enspire has produced innovative e-learning applications for leading institutions and corporations including SAP, Pitney Bowes, and the American Heart Association. Enspire has also grown from its three founding employees to over 50 creative learning, design, and technology professionals.

"We are fortunate to have found clients who trusted our vision, provided us with excellent feedback, and were truly invested in our success," commented Billhardt. "And we are just as fortunate to have found brilliant employees who were willing to roll up their sleeves to help provide solutions to our clients needs."

Enspire's growth as a company was recently recognized for the second consecutive year by the Austin Business Journal. On October 19, the Austin Business Journal held its annual Fast 50 awards ceremony at the Hilton Austin, recognizing the 50 fastest-growing companies in central Texas. Enspire was recognized as the fifth fastest growing company in Central Texas. In 2005, Enspire placed ninth.

Also in October, Enspire was honored with two Brandon Hall Excellence in Learning Awards. The awards were presented in conjunction with the 2006 Training Solutions Conference in Denver, Colorado. Enspire took home Bronze for a technology sales training program and interactive simulation, and Gold for a business process improvement curriculum that featured a capstone multiplayer business improvement simulation.

"When I founded Enspire, I never imagined how far we would come in such a short time," Billhardt said, "I am so proud of our team and the accomplishments we continue to garner."
