Jenzabar Signs Marketing Partnership with ePortaro
Portfolio leader complements Jenzabar’s Total Campus Management solutions

Cambridge, MA –October 21, 2004 Jenzabar, Inc., a leading enterprise and e-learning software provider dedicated to higher education, today announced a marketing partnership with ePortaro, a leading provider of enterprise-level electronic portfolio systems.

Under the terms of the agreement, Jenzabar will market ePortaro’s state-of-the-art portfolio, Folio by ePortaro™, along with a full range of products and services designed to deliver Jenzabar’s Total Campus Management (TCM) solutions. Jenzabar’s TCM approach combines end-to-end software products and professional services tailored to meet the unique needs of each institution.

Folio by ePortaro supports growth, accomplishment and collaboration in an educational experience. It enables student or faculty portfolio owners to demonstrate their skills, competencies, personality, and capabilities, over the Internet.

Electronic portfolios are powerful collaboration and sharing tools for students, faculty and alumni owners. Folio encourages students to organize and share their learning achievements across a secure browser interface with selected individuals. Folio has been developed for the web with full Internet accessibility and is also highly configurable, allowing the student or other owners of the portfolio to control which items are visible to different viewers. The ability to present the information in different formats for different audiences ensures that the e-portfolio fulfills the needs for personal development, personal achievement, and curriculum vitae for the students, faculty and the alumni.

In combination with Jenzabar’s portal product, Jenzabar’s Internet Campus Solution (JICS), Folio by ePortaro provides a rich set of capabilities to students from a single source, simplifying support, training and application administration. Together, they further Jenzabar’s mission of providing integrated, intelligent, Internet-based systems to colleges and universities for all their administrative and student support requirements.

“Folio is a natural complement to Jenzabar’s higher education solutions,” said Robert A. Maginn, Jenzabar Chairman and CEO. “Our client institutions regularly look for cost-effective ways to enhance the learning experience of their students. This portfolio allows students and faculty to selectively present documents to different audiences. As a result, Jenzabar solutions can both increase the efficiency of the faculty and enhance the learning experience of the students.”

“We are pleased to partner with Jenzabar to make Folio by ePortaro available to their clients,” said Joseph A. Chalmers, CEO of ePortaro. “As a leading e-business and e-learning solutions provider to higher education, Jenzabar is an ideal partner. Their Total Campus Management strategy complements our future direction, providing an ideal foundation for the expanded use of electronic portfolios in the education market.”
