different. CORE Education builds customized Teacher Training modules

are qualified in the subject matter but sometimes lack industry exposure; hence
the CORE Teacher training program addresses not just the technology needs and
also offers the requisite industry exposure.

productivity. edMastery offers a robust, web-based testing and reporting
system that delivers customizable assessments through a simple interface - that
lets organizations aid their employees in mastering the requisite skills.

CMS is a web based software package for the comprehensive Information
Management and Decision Support System, including Administrative, Academic,
Resource, Financial Management, Student Information, Student Tracking and

The plan is to build 50-60 brick and mortal K12 schools by the end of 5 years.

time aim to slow down in the higher education business.
They plan to cut down debt but take some loans for the K12 business to
meet the goals they have set themselves for five years from now.
