MTM Technologies Earns 'Top National Education Partner of the Year' Award from Citrix Systems

MTM Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: MTMC), a leading national provider of innovative IT solutions and services to Global 2000 and mid-size companies, today announced that Citrix Systems, Inc., the global leader in Application Delivery Infrastructure, has named MTM Technologies their "Top National Education Partner of the Year" for 2008. This is the fourth consecutive year that MTM Technologies has received this award, which recognizes remarkable performance in providing education and training to IT professionals on Citrix solutions. With over 115 Citrix Authorized Learning Centers(TM) (CALCs) throughout North America vying for the honor, this recognition once again distinguishes MTM Technologies as one of the country's leading Citrix Authorized Learning Centers.

"As virtualization has increased the efficiency and manageability of enterprise IT -- from the data center to the desktop -- MTM Technologies recognized that professionals would require new skills to use new server, desktop and application technologies in their workplaces. They were the one of the first CALCs in the country to be certified to teach Citrix(R) NetScaler(TM) classes and the among the first to build their own Citrix XenServer(TM) lab to host XenServer training," said Chris Ellington, Director Education Sales for Citrix Systems. "They continue to provide outstanding training opportunities for IT teams and their strategic executives, combining the highest levels of real-world experience and expertise with qualified Citrix instruction."

Citrix Education offers professional training courses through Citrix Authorized Learning Centers. These worldwide training facilities offer a consistent level of educational excellence and meet rigorous requirements before becoming authorized. MTM Technologies was awarded "Top National Education Partner of the Year" honors by ranking high in a number of categories including number of students trained, revenue generated, building relations with other training centers in North America, overall program quality, and consistently high scores from students as measured by third party customer satisfaction surveys. MTM Technologies offers the entire suite of Citrix offerings including Citrix Certified Administrator(TM) (CCA), Citrix Certified Enterprise Administrator(TM) (CCEA), and Citrix Certified Integration Architect(TM) (CCIA) certification tracks delivered by a team of dedicated Citrix Certified Instructors(TM) across the country.

MTM Technologies was also named "Most Strategic Education Partner of 2008" by Citrix--awarded to the CALC who has been instrumental throughout the year developing new and innovative delivery solutions for Citrix courses. The awards were presented in January at the Citrix Americas CALC/CCI conference, Citrix's premiere annual event for industry partners, held this year in Ft. Lauderdale.

"Being named 'Top National Education Partner of the Year' for a fourth consecutive year underscores our commitment to offering quality training and is a great honor for us," said Steve Stringer, President and Chief Executive Officer of MTM Technologies. "We're dedicated to bringing our clients the skills they need to become more agile and efficient through faster application delivery, higher levels of availability and improved utilization of IT resources."
