Our History

Formerly known as Flying Fish Creative Services; we began development of our proprietary systems in 1999. 2000 saw the initial release of our Learning Management System, CareerMap, as well as, the launch of our first regulatory compliance courseware library. In 2004, we released CareerMap 2, our second generation Learning Management System, available in either a corporate, client-side solution or a hosted solution. In the fall of 2006, we released our proprietary Talent Management System bringing an online solution to assist companies in managing their human capital. Now for 2008, we have launched our revolutionary Learning Management Express, ‘LMXonline.’ LMX brings the ease of eCommerce to eLearning while providing the benefits of a learning management system. LMX allows individuals and corporate entities to purchase anywhere from one courseware title to any number of courses from the offered catalog and utilize the included learning management system functionalities.
