Washington, DC, January 6, 2004 - The Career College Association (CCA) and MaxKnowledge, Inc. announced today that they have formed a strategic alliance to offer online and blended training programs to enhance the knowledge and skills of career college personnel.

CCA and MaxKnowledge also will offer a unique training partnership solution to state associations, allowing them to provide online and blended training to their members.
Course categories include operations management, marketing and branding, recruitment and admissions, retention and motivation, job placement and industry relations, instructor training and development, online learning, accreditation and regulatory issues, financial aid, default management, legal issues, and merger/acquisition issues.
"We're very pleased to have MaxKnowledge as our e-learning partner," said CCA President Nick Glakas. "This innovative approach to professional training will be of great value to our membership."
"This is a large-scale educational effort to improve the quality and efficiency of career colleges," said Dr. Amir Moghadam, Executive Director of MaxKnowledge. "We feel very fortunate to team up with the premier national association representing career colleges and look forward to our future partnerships with the state associations."
The Learning Center for Career Schools™, the online portal, is up and running at www.maxknowledge.com, and will soon be accessible through the CCA website.
