New IRES Link to Learn Portal Offers One Stop Training

CLEVELAND, Ohio — December 18, 2008 — Intuit Real Estate Solutions’ (IRES) Learning Solutions team launched a new, streamlined learning portal for its clients at IRES’ annual International User Conference in Anaheim November 9 – 12, 2008. Nearly half of all conference attendees signed up to use this portal immediately at the conference. IRES, a division of Intuit Inc., (Nasdaq: INTU) provides real estate management, portfolio management and accounting software solutions to the global real estate industry.

At this new learning portal, visitors can search for all training offerings in one place. This one-stop-shop environment allows clients to browse all of IRES’ offerings and register for any training they want to pursue. They are also able to put in a request for a session not currently on the schedule. With a fresh, new professional look and feel and easy navigation, IRES has made it simpler for its clients to find and consume what they want in regards to training.

By logging onto http://learn.intuit.com/IRES visitors experience the learning portal’s user-friendly design and more robust search tools and can review all training offerings, register for any offering they want and read news and communications pertinent to the company. Visitors can search for training by class title, by type of training (live virtual, classroom or elearning), by location, even by calendar. This self-service approach gives them the info when and where they need it. Since the conference, more than 200 additional people have signed up directly at the learning portal for a total of over 500 clients and growing.

“In this economy, I’ve heard very clear from our clients to get focused on finding ways for them to get superior training programs at a reasonable cost that minimizes the need to travel and allows for more self service options,” said Chris Schuller, IRES Learning Solutions Leader. “We have a strong vision for the Link to Learn portal and how it will deliver the right training, to exactly who needs it, at the right time and at a fair price.

“This new training portal delivers a ‘wow’ experience for our clients,” Schuller added. “Our vision is to lay the foundation for a true social network, so our clients will communicate and share user generated content within a live community. It gives us the platform to build more connections for our clients, through easy access to all our offerings. We are excited to further develop the power of the learning portal.”

IRES will continue to direct clients to the site, whereby it can grow into a community resource, where clients can get pertinent communications and share ideas. This concept supports Intuit’s commitment to connected services strategy that focuses on emerging social, mobile and global communications trends.

Highlights of this portal include the ability to view a sample elearning for IRES’ budgeting tool. By watching this sample offering first, clients can determine if they need to invest in the full offering for their organization.

“I am confident our clients will be impressed with the value our current eLearning sample course demonstrates as it becomes more broadly available to organizations,” said Schuller.

“We are investing significantly more in both employee and client training. The Link to Learn portal is part of that investment, and better enables us to deliver a great training experience while helping our clients more cost efficiently get their teams ready,” said Jeff Thompson, division president of IRES. “In the end, we will help our clients derive even more value from our offerings.”
