IPexpert Ranks Among America's 5000 Fastest-Growing Companies for Third Consecutive Year

Aug. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- For the third consecutive year, Inc. Magazine has ranked IPexpert on its list of the fastest-growing private companies in the country. The list is the most comprehensive look at the most important segment of the economy -- America's independent-minded entrepreneurs. Taken as a whole, these companies represent the backbone of the U.S. economy.

IPexpert is a global leader in providing self-study multimedia learning tools and classroom training preparing computer networking engineers for the highest-level career certification offered by Cisco Systems: the CCIE (Cisco Certified Internetworking Expert). Although Cisco is the leading provider of computer networking solutions worldwide, less than 22,000 engineers have been able to attain this prestigious certification over its 11-year lifetime. Those that have joined this elite group are highly sought after by the world's top companies and government agencies, commanding six-figure salaries, job security and a respected status amongst peers.

Wayne A. Lawson II, IPexpert President, founded the company in 2001 after becoming a CCIE. He credits the success of IPexpert to hiring and retaining the right team members and focusing on customer satisfaction. "It's an honor to receive this recognition for the 3rd consecutive year. We've worked very hard to get where we are and we're very optimistic about our growth over the next several years," says Lawson. David Kaufman, IPexpert's Vice President of Sales & Marketing, adds, "We have an aggressive growth strategy, a great team, an amazing brand and a solid execution plan. I'm very excited about our future."

The Inc. 5000 is ranked according to each company's percentage of revenue growth from 2005 through 2008. To qualify, companies must be U.S.-based, privately held, for profit, and independent -- not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies. Complete results of the Inc. 5000, including company profiles and a list of the fastest-growing companies that can be sorted by industry and region can be found at http://www.inc5000.com.
