Fusion Wins Gold-Level Honors at 2007 Summit Creative Awards

AUSTIN, Texas--(Business Wire)--
Fusion Learning Systems enjoyed continued industry recognition by
receiving gold-level honors at the 2007 Summit Creative Awards. Fusion
won the award for a retail simulation created for a national grocer's
internal training efforts. The storefront scenario provides a fun and
colorful backdrop for making important business decisions that
demonstrate positive and negative consequences. The game was crafted
to demystify retail operations, making them both accessible and
interesting. The learning goal is to prepare team members for future
leadership and management positions.

Catering to the lively culture of the major national retailer, the
training tool uses images of actual employees as team members. The
simulation encompasses a humorous, irreverent look and feel, much like
that of Monty Python or Southpark, and uses entertaining music and
sound effects. Characters include two team members who run a fruit
stand, a posse of customers, a thief, an individual customer, and a
skateboarder. Players choose from a series of decisions and either
progress forward in the game, or are alerted to the financial
consequences of poor choices. Learners observe and interact with the
game over a period of four simulated weeks, gaining skills that allow
them to transfer their knowledge and apply it to a larger business
model.

Julia Peterson, the manager of the project at Fusion, explains,
"Companies are realizing that they are more successful in developing
skills in their employees when they can take a difficult subject and
make it one that is engaging and entertaining. It creates a buzz
around the company and employees ask for the training instead of being
required to take it. The game has been given rave reviews by the
employees."

The simulation won Fusion Learning Systems Gold-Level Honors at
the 2007 Summit Creative Awards. The Summit Creative Awards, held by
Summit International Awards, use evaluative criteria and blind judging
processes to reward firms truly deserving of special recognition. The
Summit International Awards have a fourteen-year history and are known
as one of the premier arbiters of creative and communication
excellence. Participants in the awards program consist of companies
and individuals from more than 50 countries and five continents.
