1. EDUSS Learning Acquires Majority Interest in
Designing Success, Inc.
Denver, CO and Hollywood, FL, January 22, 2013
Denver-based EDUSS Learning, owner of the world’s first personalized learning platform
built entirely in Artificial Intelligence, announced that it has acquired a majority interest in
Designing Success, Inc., the creator and marketer of Tracking At-A-Glance® (TAAG) case
management and performance tracking software.
EDUSS Learning is the first company to build an Integrated Multi-dimensional Teaching
Assistant (IMTA) that has the ability to diagnose learning gaps in a student and then develop
a tailor-made learning plan specific for that individual student. The assessment technology
not only identifies a student’s level of knowledge, but more importantly their foundational
level of understanding. The proprietary engine also has the ability to adapt the instruction to
the learning style best-suited to the student. The IMTA Solution provides each student a full-
time interactive tutor. EDUSS Learning delivers customized curricula in Math, English and
Phonics-to-Reading.
Designing Success through its Tracking At-A-Glance® software will allow EDUSS® clients to
track and quantify the more difficult non-academic outcomes related to the socioeconomic
changes of their students (both adults and children) and the affect to their families and their
communities. In addition, this new relationship will provide support for Designing Success to
expand the reach of Tracking At-A-Glance® (TAAG) software into other specialized markets
including Corrections and Vocational Schools. Designing Success was selected by EDUSS®
because of its vast knowledge and stellar relationships with agencies nationwide that work
with the under/unemployed on a daily basis to improve their skills.
Under the terms of the acquisition, the entire Designing Success team that developed
Tracking At-A-Glance® (TAAG) and provides exemplary customer support will remain with
the company. Cheryl Wachtel has been appointed Chief Executive Officer and Sam Wachtel
will serve as the Vice President of Business Development. All other staff will continue to
serve in their existing roles.
Management of both companies recognized dynamic synergies by combining the power of
their respective software platforms.
Theo Scherman, CEO and Founder of EDUSS Learning states, “The proprietary Tracking At-A-
Glance® (TAAG) software of Designing Success is a leader in its field, and extends the value
proposition of the EDUSS Learning educational software. As EDUSS® enters markets in
Public Housing Authority Resident Education, Corrections, Vocational Schools and more, the
combination of our platforms becomes a seamless and powerful way to serve these
significant markets together. Our goal is to grow the customer reach of both Designing
Success and the EDUSS® software platforms.”
“We are proud to join the EDUSS Learning family,” said Cheryl Wachtel, CEO and Founder of
Designing Success, Inc. “EDUSS’ IMTA Solution is truly remarkable and can offer immediate
benefit to the people served by our public housing authority, non-profit, and workforce
development clients. This technology is exactly what is needed to accelerate the adult
learning process, thus building self-esteem and putting more people to work earning higher
wages. It’s a win-win situation for everyone!”
