New Distance Learning Service for Higher Education and Corporate Training Powered by Video Presenter

Video Communication Service reaches more students via Internet.

Rockledge, FL (PRWEB) May 1, 2007 -- Applied Global Technologies, the leading provider of Enterprise Managed Video Services, announces that it is now offering Higher Education and Corporate Trainers with a direct link to internet-based teleworkers around the world via its new Distance Education Hosting Zone™. This Zone, powered by VIDEO PRESENTER®, provides turn-key services for Distance Learning, Fortune 500, and State IP/VPN/ISDN networks.

"Our current clients are experiencing double-digit enrollment increases by connecting their existing interactive courses to AGT," stated Mike Valletutti, Chairman and CEO, Applied Global Technologies. "This powerful service allows Universities to broadcast their live classroom instruction to home-office workers in the US and business professionals connecting from other time zones. All support services for public internet hosting are included, which provides a quick start for those desiring to get into Distance Learning."

The new turn-key services include new student on-boarding, live support and real time recording and streaming of courses. Pricing is determined base on class size and course hours, and AGT can link directly into existing Distance Learning programs via ISDN to IP.

"Most internet-based e-learning solutions lack the benefits of live classroom interaction. Teleworkers desire to have the same 'in the classroom' experience as students on campus," added Valletutti. "We have developed this Hosting Zone service specifically for Colleges and Universities who desire to reach these new potential students."
