Learning Tree International Wins "Outstanding Human Performance Intervention Award" from the International Society for Performance Improvement (ISPI) for Development of RealityPlus(TM).

RESTON, Va. -- Learning Tree International (NASDAQ:LTRE), a leading worldwide provider of vendor-independent education and training to IT and business professionals working in the public and private sector, today announced that it has been selected to receive the "Outstanding Human Performance Intervention" award from the International Society for Performance Improvement (ISPI).

Learning Tree is receiving this award in recognition of developing and introducing RealityPlus[TM], a curriculum of management education courses based on the principles of performance-based learning. Specifically, Learning Tree will receive the award for the company's development of Course 315: Identifying and Managing User Requirements, which teaches attendees how to write user requirements documents and then manage those documents throughout the lifecycle of a project.

Learning Tree teamed with Darryl L. Sink & Associates, Inc. to design and develop RealityPlus. In RealityPlus courses, participants are immersed in simulated, real-world scenarios where they learn and practice in a hands-on, dynamic media-rich environment. Authenticity is the key to this new training approach. Under the guidance of expert facilitators, the learner makes decisions and takes actions based on information that is presented in a way they would encounter information on the job. These experiences reflect the challenges, stimulus, and expectations of the contemporary workplace through interactive video scenarios, computer simulated environments, real-time data acquisition and analysis, and many collaborative activities. Post-course evaluations show this approach significantly increases participant satisfaction, participant learning, and on-the-job application of new knowledge and skills.

Nicholas R. Schacht, Learning Tree President and CEO, said, "We are extremely proud to have been recognized and to win the 'Outstanding Human Performance Intervention Award' from the International Society for Performance Improvement (ISPI). RealityPlus is an extension of our mission to advance the state of management education and align courses with what customers value: improved performance. The advantage of RealityPlus to a learner and his or her employer lies in the fact that the results are performance-based. Knowing about things is important, but doing things successfully is what really generates value within an organization."

Learning Tree's first set of RealityPlus titles includes Project Management Skills for Success, Project Leadership: Building High-Performance Teams, Developing User Requirements, Project Scheduling and Budgeting, Project Quality Management, Project Risk Management, Managing Complex Projects, User System Requirements for Successful Software Development, Project Management for Software Development, Software Configuration Management, Assertiveness Skills, Communication Skills, Influence Skills, and Negotiation Skills.

Founded in 1962, the International Society for Performance Improvement is the leading international association dedicated to improving productivity and performance in the workplace. ISPI represents more than 10,000 international and chapter members throughout the United States, Canada, and 40 other countries. ISPI's mission is to develop and recognize the proficiency of its members and advocate the use of human performance technology.

The ISPI Awards of Excellence program is designed to showcase the people, products, innovations, and organizations that represent excellence in the field of instructional and human performance technology. The Awards of Excellence process is made up of four phases: 1) submission; 2) evaluation; 3) recognition; and 4) mentoring. The judging criteria in the "Outstanding Human Performance Intervention" category focused on recognizing outstanding results derived from the application of human performance technology to human performance problems, needs, or opportunities.

Learning Tree will receive its award at the annual ISPI conference in May 2007 in San Francisco, California.
