OnPoint Digital Signs as Impatica Business Partner

Company Integrates Impatica Support into Core E-Learning Suite

Savannah, GA - January 27, 2003 - OnPoint Digital, Inc., an e-learning solutions developer and services company, announced it has signed on as a Strategic Partner with Impatica Inc. Under the terms of the agreement, OnPoint will add support for Impatica's Java-based media player allowing OnPoint's customers to easily incorporate compelling rich media content to OnPoint-based courseware. In addition, OnPoint will sell Impatica's industry leading tools and will actively promote these offerings to middle market customers looking for value-oriented e-learning offerings.

Impatica support allows OnPoint's customers to simplify the process followed by subject matter experts to create compelling content for their employees, partners and customers.

Impatica for PowerPoint and Impatica for Director convert existing files-including text, graphics, transitions, animation effects, narration and presentation interactivity-into a compressed format that is optimized for streaming over the Internet or corporate intranets. These presentations can also be synchronized with video and scrolling text, complete with indexing, navigation and search capabilities using Impatica OnCue.

By adding support for Impatica-generated files to the OnPoint Learning Suite, customers can now quickly and easily repurpose existing Microsoft PowerPoint and Macromedia Director presentations for online packaging and delivery. To facilitate content delivery, OnPoint has included integrated support for Impatica file formats as native asset types in the OnPoint Learning Suite, allowing plug-in free playback from any web browser accessing an OnPoint-based training course.

"Ease of capture, conversion and delivery are the design tenants of our new content capture and conversion strategy," said Katherine Guest, OnPoint's Vice President of Marketing and a company cofounder. "With the addition of support for Impatica's streamlined Java-enabled content formats, our customers can now take full advantage of major portions of their legacy content without any real concerns for conversion integrity or bandwidth. The Impatica tools make content conversion and delivery elegant and seamless."

"We are extremely pleased that OnPoint will offer Impatica desktop solutions to their growing client base", said Michael G. Doyle, Chairman and CEO of Impatica Inc. "With over 33 million PowerPoint presentations being created every day, Microsoft PowerPoint is clearly the multimedia development tool for the masses. Integration with LMS and LCMS systems such as those offered by OnPoint provide an affordable solution for subject matter experts to get courses online quickly," he continued.
