OREM, Utah -- March 19, 1996 -- Novell Inc. has announced the
promotion of Carolyn G. Rose to Senior Vice President/General Manager
of Novell Education. In this capacity, Rose continues to report to Mary M.
Burnside, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer for
Novell.
"Offering solutions to customers means providing more than just
products," said Burnside. "Carolyn's promotion underscores the value of
Novell Education to our customers and to our channel. Novell continues in
its commitment to its leadership position in Information Technology (IT)
training in the networking industry."
Rose's "leveraged model" of IT training has clearly established
Novell as the industry pioneer and leader in IT training. Through an
unparalleled global channel of more than 1,450 Novell Authorized
Education Centers (NAECs) and 150 Novell Education Academic Partners
(NEAPs) worldwide, Novell has trained more than two million student
customers.
Nearly 200,000 individuals have completed Novell's rigorous
certification testing to achieve the CNE, Master CNE, Certified Novell
Administrator (CNA) and Certified Novell Instructors (CNI) certifications.
There are an additional 125,000 "candidates-in-progress" in these
programs. Novell has more than a decade of experience in certification,
and this month celebrates the impact of these certified individuals on the
IT industry through "Certification Month" activities at BrainShare USA.
Based in Novell's San Jose, Calif. office, Rose joined Novell in
June of 1989, through the acquisition of Excelan, where she was
manager of technical training. Within nine months, Rose was named
director of education, and was honored as the 1990 Novell Employee of
the Year. Rose was promoted to vice president in 1991 and became vice
president/general manager when Novell Chairman and CEO Robert
Frankenberg established Education as a Novell business unit in April,
1994. That spring she was named a TWIN (Tribute to Women and
Industry) honoree by the YWCA. In 1995 her accomplishments in
creating the most powerful global education channel in the IT industry
were honored by the Information Technology Training Association, and
she was awarded the EDDY Award for Excellence.
