Hey Everyone!
Today is a big day for our company - and I wanted to share our exciting news with you!
We have changed our name Lurn, Inc. That’s a fun way of spelling “learn”, where U come first!
You can check out our new website at http://www.Lurn.com
I’ve also pasted a copy of a press release we sent about the name change below.
How does this name change affect you?
Well, for the most part, everything will remain the same for our clients, affiliates, students and partners.
All of our product lines (including the Affiliate Classroom course) remain intact and running ahead at full steam!
You’ll continue being supported by the same great staff and you’ll continue to receive the same great training tools and information you’ve come to expect from us.
But, as the year goes on - you’ll see that we’ll be adding more support, more tools, more services and more training to help our students and our affiliates reach their personal and financial goals.
We’d love to hear what you think about the new name - please send me your comments!
Stay tuned for more news on all of the great things coming out of Lurn this year!
To your continued success,
Sarah Holland

Affiliate Classroom Changes Name to Lurn, Inc.
E-learning Content and Technology Provider Takes on a New Name to Encompass Expanded Offering and Vision
College Park, MD –March 5th, 2009 –
Affiliate Classroom, a leading publisher of educational tools for the interactive advertising industry, has changed its name to Lurn, Inc.
The change comes as the company embarks on plans to expand offerings and broaden its vision.
“We originally set out to provide training and best practices for affiliates. The name Affiliate
Classroom made perfect sense,” said founder and CEO Anik Singal. “But in late 2008 as our executive team developed our strategic vision for the next two years, we felt limited by the name. What we’re able to offer now is beyond simple how-to information for affiliates. Changing our name is strategically liberating.”
Along with new interactive marketing courses, in 2009 the company will add a comprehensive e-learning delivery and membership management platform to its offerings. This technology will offer third-parties the ability to launch and manage their own training
and membership-based coaching and consulting package.
The company will continue using the name “Affiliate Classroom” to brand its online affiliate training course. Affiliate Classroom is currently undergoing a content and technological revision and will be re-introduced to the market in mid-2009.
Singal added, “We’ve been getting a lot of compliments on the new name. We think that it highlights our fun personality, while staying true to our vision of empowering our students to reach their goals through technology and education.”
