March 10, 2009
HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. -- BUSINESS WIRE --
Bio-Clean International, Inc. (Stock Symbol: BCLE) announced today that the Company’s affiliated entity,
Veterans Training Corporation
(veteranstrainingcorp.com),
a certified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business
(SDVOB),
is entering into a Teaming Agreement with Kensington College
(kensingtoncollege.edu).
Initially, certain of the numerous Kensington College classes will be offered by Veterans Training Corporation through the VTC On-Line educational system, with the intent to expand the arrangement to have all Kensington classes being offered through VTC.
Kensington College, a school of professional legal studies and hospitality operations, was founded in 1991 and is located in Santa Ana, California. Kensington College is accredited by the Accrediting Council of Independent Colleges and Schools (ACICS).
VTC intends to focus on presenting the wide range of educational opportunities it offers to active-duty and recently-discharged members of the U.S. Military who are eligible for increased educational benefits under the existing GI Bill and the New GI Bill which becomes effective on August 1, 2009.
Over the past ten years, Veterans Training Corporation (VTC), a certified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Business
(SDVOB) has provided a wide range of training programs for a variety of clients. It offers safety-training and certification for students to meet OSHA requirements, as well as training for students to comply with The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) certification standards required of hospitals and medical providers.
The certification programs presently offered by VTC and those Kensington College programs which VTC will soon implement are in addition to the numerous On-Line anti-terrorism and On-Line security training programs which VTC will begin offering in April 2009 in conjunction with the GTI (Government Training Institute).
John P. Finn, Vice President of Bio-Clean International and Founder of VTC, said:
“Our ten years of experience in offering On-Line training programs to Veterans, along with the addition of the new training programs of GTI and, now, Kensington College, and even more intended educational ventures to be implemented later this year, ensures that VTC is on the way to becoming a leading provider of On-Line training and certification programs not only to Veterans, but law enforcement agencies throughout the country.”
Mr. Finn added, “Today’s economic conditions have increased the importance of training and certification programs to allow Military personnel to make a successful transition from active duty to the private sector. We, as a Country, owe this to our nation’s Armed Forces and the New GI Bill is a reaffirmation of our support for them.”
