Top Honors
ORLANDO,
FLORIDA — January 28, 2007— Citrix Education today announced that
ONLC Training Centers instructor, Rick Townsend, had the highest student evaluation
scores in 2006, earning him the title of Top Citrix Certified Instructor. The
announcement was made at the annual Citrix Summit being held in Orlando, Florida.
Best Instructor in 2006
ONLC Training Centers CEO, Andy Williamson
and Customer Service Manager, Joan Good were present when Townsend received the
award. "We knew Rick was a great instructor. This award validates that he
is the best in the country," said Williamson.
"It was a great honor to receive the award. I was surprised," said Townsend. What makes the award particularly meaningful is that many of Townsend's students received training that was delivered using the company's Remote Classroom Instruction (RCI) technology.
A
Win for Remote Classroom Instruction
"The fact that Rick received
this award when about a third of his students were sitting in remote classrooms
says a lot about our RCI process," continued Williamson. With RCI, students
in low-enrollment locations link into the instructor-led class being held at another
site. Special Internet conferencing, electronic whiteboards, cameras, and high-quality
speakerphones are used to make the student feel like they are seamlessly integrated
into the instructor's class.
ONLC Training Centers is a Top Citrix Partner
"I
work closely with the staff at Citrix Education to provide leading edge training
at our seven Citrix Authorized locations throughout the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic
Regions," said Good. "Having Rick teach our classes is one of the reasons
we won the award for the top-rated Citrix Authorized Learning Center earlier in
2006. With Rick's award today, we are building an even stronger reputation as
a top Citrix partner."
