Primedia Workplace Learning
At its founding in 1989, Westcott Communications established itself as an early pioneer of the “distance learning”. The company made its niche by launching television networks that deliver workplace training by privately-encrypted satellite transmission. In 1991, following tremendously successful launches of the Automotive Satellite Television Network and the Law Enforcement Television Network, Westcott Communications began a period of rapid-growth expansion, launching new satellite networks every year, and purchasing a number of video-based training companies. In 1995, Westcott Communications was purchased by NY specialty-publications giant K-III Communications (later named PRIMEDIA) for $430 million. By then, the company had grown to more than 500 employees, and produced more hours of original programming each month than ABC, NBC, CBS or Fox (500 hours per month). The company was renamed PRIMEDIA Workplace Learning, and continues to dominate distance training in several industries, including law enforcement and healthcare.
