EduNeering Logs 1 Millionth Critical Information Control SystemŽ (CICS) Use in 2006

CICS Use Up 250% in First Half 2006

August 30, 2006 - Princeton, New Jersey - EduNeering, a leading provider of knowledge solutions to improve regulatory compliance and business performance, has announced the one millionth use of CICS, the company's proprietary Critical Information Control System, for the first half of 2006. Use of CICS by clients in the pharmaceutical, biologics, and medical device sectors shows a year-over-year increase of 250 percent.

"The substantial growth in CICS use highlights the confidence our clients have in EduNeering's technology-based solutions to directly assist them in achieving regulatory compliance and improving business performance, especially with regard to SOP and critical document management. It is this confidence among our established client base and a growing number of new clients that has led to EduNeering's rapid growth over the past five years - growth that has been recognized for three consecutive years by our selection to Deloitte's "New Jersey Fast 50" ranking of the 50 fastest growing technology companies in the state," said Donald A. Deieso, President and CEO of EduNeering. "We continue to expand the capabilities of our knowledge solutions, to continuously improve our service to clients, regardless of how their needs evolve in an increasingly competitive, dispersed and regulated economic environment."

CICS enables the efficient distribution and audit-ready documentation of critical information including Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), Codes of Conduct, corporate policies and procedures, regulatory updates, and employee communications. Information can be disseminated on-demand to all responsible parties for review, validation by e-signature, and document management compliant with company standards and regulatory requirements. Recipients - regardless of location, language, literacy or skill levels - can be tested for comprehension and, if necessary, immediately supplied with additional resources to ensure their understanding of, and ability to apply, the distributed information. Data showing program status, employee participation, and recipient feedback are accessible in real time for optimal program oversight, management and auditing.

CICS is one of the proprietary solutions developed by EduNeering to assist clients in reaching and maintaining their business, operational and regulatory objectives. CICS supports function-specific technologies including QuizCreator^SM, which allows clients to author, publish and edit quizzes specifically for testing employees' understanding of distributed information, and Forms^SM, which enables the distribution, collection, analysis and storage of client-developed materials such as conflict of interest forms, information security questionnaires, human resource self-evaluation documents, informed consent, annual employee compliance certifications, and surveys of all types.
