CERTPOINT Systems

LONG ISLAND, N.Y., March 19, 2002 - Vuepoint, a corporate eLearning software and services company that matches speed to knowledge with speed to market, announces today that Pall Corporation (NYSE: PLL) has selected the Vuepoint Learning System (VLS) 3.0 to train its sales and marketing representatives on its highly sophisticated filtration, separation and purification products for the life sciences and industrial industries. Pall University also plans to use VLS to train all 9,000 global employees, distributors and customers across 30 countries with courses created in five different languages.

Pall sought an eLearning system that would allow it to create courses about its information-rich products and services, which require employees, distributors and customers to absorb a large amount of specific and detailed information. VLS allows Palls internal subject matter experts to easily and quickly create courses, regardless of their technical expertise, helping the company to bring its products to market faster. Additionally it allows Pall more flexibility and control to maintain consistent content to all of its 30 distribution centers, located on seven continents. Vuepoints system also eliminates the need for on-site display and demonstration, typically required when launching a new product.

Our products are extremely complex. Historically we launched products regionally rather than globally. An eLearning approach will enable us to announce and provide training on new products globally, to our sales and marketing people as well as our distributors. In some cases, we will use the Pall University site to train out customers or alert them to product upgrades, said Jane Block, Pall Corporate VP of Training. VLS allows us to create our own courses and so introduce a new product internally weeks before rolling it out. By the time it hits the street, our staff is already knowledgeable about its features. VLS gives us a real head start and will prove invaluable in speeding up our sales cycles.

The Vuepoint Learning System, which offers in a single platform a learning content management system (LCMS) with an easy to use self-authoring tool and a learning management system (LMS) allows Pall University to create and administer, as well as manage and document all of its training courses and content, eliminating outsourcing costs. Because VLS can be seamlessly integrated with generic courseware, Pall will also use it to train employees in company competency, corporate overview and IT and technical skills.
