"We are absolutely thrilled to partner with Hope for U.S. Veterans," says Jeff Coruccini, CEO of LearnKey. "The partnership enables us to provide proven programs like the CNP Course for returning veterans who wish to enter the IT industry, administered through Atlantis University, which is a VA-certified premier program. This aligns perfectly with our online IT training, covering topics and industry-recognized certifications in Microsoft, CompTIA, A+, Network+ and Security+, CCNA, Soft Skills, Windows Server, CISSP, and more."
Both companies not only pride themselves on providing qualified veterans with the opportunity to learn the necessary professional training and skills to become successful in technology-related occupations, they also work closely with employers to find their veteran students jobs.
"LearnKey's 25-year history of providing video-based IT and Career Ready training solutions like 'Certify for Life' -- which provides free education for qualifying U.S. Veterans -- is a perfect complement to my curricula in providing veterans with the ultimate blended learning solution," says Phil Johnson, CEO of Hope For U.S. Veterans. "LearnKey is a trusted partner that has been supporting veterans getting certified through online programs that participate in Vocational Rehabilitation & Employment (VR&E) through the U.S. Veterans Administration."
Through their partnership, LearnKey and Hope for U.S. Veterans can together provide an optimized, blended learning experience to give veterans multiple certifications in a short time span. This accelerated training allows individuals to quickly begin working in the career of their choice. LearnKey's veteran services program boasts a 92% pass rate on leading IT certification exams.

2013-05-01
Australian scientists are much closer to developing a screening test for the early detection of Alzheimer's disease.
They identified blood-based biological markers that are associated with the build up of a toxic protein in the brain which occurs years before symptoms appear and irreversible brain damage has occurred.
"Early detection is critical if we are to make any real difference in the battle against Alzheimer's, giving those at risk a much better chance of receiving treatment earlier, before it's too late to do much about it," said Dr Samantha Burnham from CSIRO's ...
