Sonoma College Announces Agreement with FDNY; FDNY to Offer Distance Learning Degree Program in Homeland Readiness and Emergency Management.

PETALUMA, Calif. -- Sonoma College, Inc. (OTCBB: SNMA) a provider of post-secondary education, announced that it is teaming with the Fire Department of New York (FDNY) to provide its over 15,000 members (and the New York EMS Authority) with a degree program in Homeland Readiness and Emergency Management (HREM) that is instructor-led via the internet.

Sonoma College has entered into an operating agreement with the FDNY as a Post Secondary Partner Institution. As part of the agreement, Sonoma will provide FDNY's members the opportunity to achieve advanced standing in Sonoma's HREM Program by awarding transfer credit from Sonoma for their already- completed NYC Fire Academy training and for Fire Department courses that are recognized by the American Council on Education (ACE) Guide. As part of the agreement, the FDNY will also endorse the HREM Degree Program to its current and retired employees. Additionally, FDNY and Sonoma College developed content and curriculum specific to the HREM Program.

Dr. Victor Herbert, FDNY Dean of Instruction said, "Sonoma College is one of a few colleges willing to recognize the quality of the FDNY training from probationary school and beyond, offering direct credit for courses taken in the academies. In addition, Sonoma offers deep advanced standing for outside college work, ACE/PONSI, CLEP/DANTES and other educational experiences. Each individual will bring more or less credit potential with them, but Sonoma has made it clear that they intend to maximize the opportunity in their Homeland Readiness and Emergency Management degree programs. The fact that the courses are all available online further meets the need of emergency responders whose tours extend beyond that of a traditional student. This may be just what many FDNY personnel have been waiting for to advance their education."

Chuck Newman, CEO of Sonoma College said, "The thousands of men and women who make up the FDNY membership are heroes, not only in New York, but worldwide. Supporting them through education, and creating professional problem solvers, is the goal of this agreement. As homeland security is the responsibility of both, the public and private sector, this agreement brings the two entities together for the common good."

Mr. Newman concluded, "While we are looking forward to serving the members of the FDNY, we are also excited about the possibility of offering this new program to other fire departments and emergency service organizations throughout the United States. Homeland security is not only an issue for the city of New York, but it is also extremely important for the rest of our country. Sonoma College's distance learning program, which is delivered 100% online, enables us to reach out to many others who can benefit from the HREM Associate of Applied Science Degree Program."
