ANNOUNCING LIGHT READING UNIVERSITY

Light Reading's new training service allows service providers and their employees to learn about next-
generation telecommunications technology over the Internet

Light Reading is happy to announce that we've recently opened the virtual doors to Light Reading
University (LRU), our new training service.

LRU provides professionals working in or around the telecommunications industry with a detailed education
in next-generation networking technology from the people best qualified to deliver it: the technologists who
developed it and implemented it in the real world. As a service provider employee, you can think of our
courses as your independent advisory service. This course will keep you abreast of this ever-changing
market and give you valuable insight into which technologies are viable and why - and, more importantly,
which are not.

LRU takes advantage of the two attributes that have made Light Reading itself such a success. First, it's
online, which means students with Internet access can participate in LRU courses from any location in
the world. Second, it's based on premium quality content, provided by world-renowned experts.

Light Reading University is headed by Geoff Bennett (
http://www.lightreading.com/lru/document.asp?doc_id=26617 ). Previously, Bennett was a Distinguished
Engineer with Marconi. His career includes stints at such companies as FORE Systems and Wellfleet.
The first Light Reading University course - "Integrating IP and Optical Technology" (
http://www.lightreading.com/lru/document.asp?doc_id=26614 ) - will be given by Bennett himself, with help
from four world-famous guest lecturers. Four other courses (
http://www.lightreading.com/lru/section.asp?section_id=151 ) have also been scheduled for the first half of
2003 - on MPLS, VPNs, next-gen Sonet, and QOS.

To ensure students are entirely confident that our courses will meet their expectations before they sign up,
the first module in each course is free!

Each course lasts around eight hours in total, but it is broken into 20-minute modules, which students can
take at their own pace. LRU also allows students to access a message board (
http://www.lightreading.com/lru/boards/messages.asp?thread_id=27969 ), on which they can discuss
aspects of the course with each other and ask questions of the course tutors.

The price of the first course is $299, which provides access to the course modules for six months. The
guest lectures ( http://www.lightreading.com/lru/section.asp?section_id=152 ) associated with the course
are included in this price. Students who enroll by January 31st ( http://www.replayhq.com/lru/listing.asp )
will qualify for a $50 discount and a free LRU T-shirt.
