VCampus Announces 5 New Clients and 4 Contract Renewals
VCampus (Nasdaq:VCMP – news) announces the addition of 5 clients to its diverse customer base, as well as the renewal of 4 existing customer contracts. The addition of these customers, as well as the continued retention of the existing client base, provides strong support for VCampus’ fully outsourced, content-neutral e-Learning solution.
The new clients announced by VCampus include organizations from a mix of industries, illustrating the broad appeal of VCampus’ services. For example:
- VCampus signed a new agreement with a large division of a $9.3 billion truck manufacturer. VCampus will serve the online learning needs of the 700 employees in the division, with an initial contract length of one year.
- VCampus has signed a contract to serve as the online learning solution for a leading provider of HVACR (heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration) education. This client currently is the market leader in classroom-based HVACR-related instruction. The agreement with VCampus enables this client to develop and deliver online courses to serve their existing customers. In addition, these organizations can together offer these important courses to the more than 500,000 students using the VCampus platform today.
- VCampus has added a $400 million maker of phone systems, telephony equipment and related software to its growing client base. Building on the VCampus’ long experience serving the telecommunications industry, VCampus will serve the company’s needs for online learning enabling its employees to increase their skill base quickly and cost-efficiently, as well as deliver online learning to all of its 250,000+ customers.
- Building on its momentum in the federal government market space, VCampus has added a new federal government agency to its growing list of federal agencies procuring their online learning needs from VCampus.
The four renewals announced by VCampus also represent a broad mix of customers: two corporate customers, one institution of higher education and one government institution.
