Nuventive Signs Distribution Agreement

PITTSBURGH, PA, September 8, 2005 – Nuventive, a leading provider of individual and institutional assessment solutions, today announced that it has signed an agreement with The Alberta Association in Higher Education for Information Technology (AAHEIT) to offer Nuventive iWebfolio at preferred terms to AAHEIT member institutions.

Under this arrangement, AAHEIT will distribute Nuventive iWebfolio, a leading ePortfolio solution and intellectual asset management system to its member institutions. The Alberta Association in Higher Education for Information Technology was incorporated in 2005 under the Societies’ Act of Alberta as a not-for-profit association with a vision to be an innovative facilitator of collaboration among educational institutions and a trusted advisor regarding information and communications technology (ICT) in education.

iWebfolio offers the most advanced personal information and intellectual asset management system in the market today. Designed to help learners, educators and staff prepare, manage, reflect, share and present the results of the learner’s academic career as well as co-curricular and personal experiences.

“We are always on the lookout for arrangements that will help our 27 member institutions acquire and use information technology more effectively,” said Michael Byrne, AAHEIT Executive Director. “At the same time as some of our members were expressing interest in using e-Portfolios, Nuventive approached us about offering their service to our membership.”

Doug Baker, AAHEIT Projects Administrator, adds, “Nuventive has been very cooperative and flexible in structuring an arrangement that offers our members favourable pricing and simple administration. They’ve already helped us get iWebfolio pilot projects kicked off at a few institutions. We’re excited that many more of our members will start using e-Portfolios in the coming months – it’s really catching on.”

“Nuventive recognizes the importance of working with organizations like AAHEIT to provide its members with the solutions needed to effectively manage and improve the life-long learning process,” said Dave Raney, Nuventive CEO and co-founder. “We are pleased to be able to offer our products to the AAHEIT membership and to expand our presence in the fast-growing Canadian market.
