Company and Its Subsidiaries Can Now Offer Continuing Education
Units for Training Courses SAN DIEGO, Oct. 31
/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Solera Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: SLH,
"Solera"), a leading global provider of software and services for
the automobile insurance claims processing industry, today
announced that it is the first in its industry to become an
Authorized Provider of Continuing Education Units (CEUs) from the
International Association of Continuing Education and Training
(IACET)-the highest standard available for any continuing education
program in the U.S. As an IACET Authorized Provider, Solera and its
subsidiaries, including Audatex in North America, can offer CEUs
for designated Computer-Based Training courses, Virtual Training
Classes and Instructor-led Training. These CEUs are accepted by
many U.S. colleges and universities. IACET is in the process of
establishing global standards with the International Standards
Organization (ISO). Once this is complete, educational institutions
around the world will accept its CEUs. This will enable clients of
Solera and its global subsidiaries, located in many of the 49
countries the Company serves, to receive college credit in return
for meeting the requirements of Solera's CEU-designated training
programs. "We are extremely excited to be the first in our industry
appointed as an IACET Authorized Provider," said Tracy Peterson,
Senior Director, Education and Web Services at Audatex. "Our
clients-who include automobile insurance companies, collision
repair shops and automotive recyclers-have expressed interest in
receiving CEUs for Audatex coursework. Now we can offer these CEUs
and, at the same time, make their training experience even more
valuable by letting them earn college credit while they learn about
the latest Audatex technologies." Effective October 2, Audatex
offers CEUs for the following courses: Audatex Estimating
Instructor-led Training, Audatex Estimating Virtual Training Class,
Audatex Estimating Computer-Based Training, Shoplink Instructor-led
Training, Shoplink Computer-Based Training and PenPro
Instructor-led Training. Any student who has completed one or more
of these courses since October 2 may request a certificate that
displays their CEU credits by sending an email to . After November
1, student transcripts and certificates will also be available at
the Audatex Online Training Center:
