WATCH VIEDO – Rhodec/CTO Graduate Shani Olexa on the virtues of the collaboration between the two colleges: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iR4lxdSVoE4

London, UK – June 28, 2017 – Rhodec International, the world’s oldest specialist interior design distance learning college, now offers 3D CAD program Revit Architecture for Interior Design as an alternative to traditional hand-drafting – completely free of charge to qualifying students.

Rhodec International, long at the forefront of the provision of Online Interior Design Courses, recently introduced the option for its Professional Diploma Course students to study Revit Architecture for Interior Design instead of, or in addition to, the Drafting course module, thus bypassing traditional Drafting completely if they wish.

Revit Architecture for Interior Design is a bespoke 100% online CAD course, tailored specifically to the needs of Interior Designers. In their Revit course students receive all the necessary software, 32 hours of real-time tutor-led training via the web, and 15 detailed instructional videos.

This exciting educational opportunity is offered in association with Rhodec’s long-standing partners, the renowned US-based college CAD Training Online (CTO). For a number of years Rhodec students have qualified for a 10% discount on CTO’s Revit course, but now it is embedded within Rhodec’s Diploma Course itself and is offered at a further heavily reduced price – or even free of charge.

To promote this new development, Rhodec is currently running a SUMMER OFFER until July 31st 2017 whereby, for students who pay in full for Rhodec’s three-year Diploma Course, Rhodec will pay the entire cost of their Online Revit CAD training (full price US$1,395). Students who do not pay in full are still able to study Revit at a greatly reduced cost of just US$995 – a near-30% reduction on the full price.

“Rhodec has always been at the forefront of technological development – our website first went live in 1995 – and this significant update to our course curriculum offers our students the opportunity to learn this essential modern-day interior design skill at considerably reduced cost, or even at no cost at all.”

Michael Dwyer – Rhodec Principal

Speak and Say online language school provides students with a custom language learning experience

New York, NY – The world has gotten smaller. Working remotely is now a trusted method of cutting costs and improving profit margins. Thanks to these improvements in technology, opportunities for work no longer are confined to the region that someone lives in; instead the world job market is open to anyone that can communicate effectively. Today’s generation of workers are only as limited as their language and communication skills. Sadly, Americans are lacking in language skills and are shut off from many opportunities because of it. Speak and Say helps enrich people’s lives with the introduction to a new language, as well as, add an important and marketable skill to their resumes. Their new online language school offers online courses in English, Spanish, and the Chinese languages.

“Our online classrooms are designed to not only give students the basics of grammar and vocabulary, but also the necessary personalized attention learning and speaking with a native language user truly cements the language skill through proper pronunciation,” says spokesperson Bryan Cohen.

The online school has everything that a physical school has to offer. There are downloadable documents, as well as, on screen learning activities, group lessons and exercises, as well as, one on one tutoring. Each class is an hour and prepares students for various types of use, from travel to work to daily life.

“We specifically grouped our courses into types so that we have objectives for the students,” says Cohen. “Some people want to learn enough to visit a country, others are trying to learn the language to work or immigrate.”

Cohen says that students are assessed before classroom recommendations are made. Their professors are all degreed and capable of not just conversational skills but instruction, so that students are given appropriate lesson plans to grow or enhance upon skills they have. Speak and Say offers classes in: Survival/Travel Language, General Knowledge (Beginner, Immediate, Advanced), Language for Business, Medical Language, TESOL/IELTs (English Only) and classes for children and teens.

Speak and Say is not only an attractive language learning option because of its convenience, but also pricing. Each class package contains averages $20 a class, and tutoring starts at $40. Each class meets 3 times a week over 12 weeks. Speak and Say launches with English, Spanish, and Chinese but hopes to eventually bring on more language opportunities as the company grows.

“Learning a new language opens people up to a whole new world of possibilities,” says Cohen. “Whether that means travel or business, being able to communicate with others in their native language has a profound impact. It is an acknowledgement that you respect their country and cultures enough to want to learn something vitally important about it.  When you speak to someone in their language, or even make the attempt you’re saying ‘I care.’ That’s what we’re offering.”

The school is open for sign ups and  launches on July 17^th for classes, and more information can be found at speakandsay.com

OAKBROOK TERRACE, IL – 29 Jun, 2017 – On June 21, 2017, GainPeace, a Muslim group based in Chicago, launched an eight-week campaign designed to educate Americans about the true teachings of Islam. The campaign’s purpose is to invite fellow Americans to learn Islam from its source, the Quran, and not from unreliable sources, social media, or fake news. Muslims consider the Quran, to be the main and primary source of true teachings for Islam.

The main purpose of the ‘Learn Islam from its Source’ campaign, is to ease the fear of Islam, suspicion of Muslims and to clear up many misunderstandings about Islam.  GainPeace will offer any callers to its toll-free number, 800-662-4752, a free copy of the entire Quran in English or Spanish.   The group also desires people of other faiths to learn the peaceful teachings of Islam, contrary to what’s portrayed by some media outlets.

“There had been some recent attacks targeting Muslims in Chicago and across the nation. Islamophobia at time stems from the lack of education about Islam or education from unreliable sources.  Thus, we want to offer our fellow Americans an opportunity to learn the true teachings of Islam from its main source, the Quran” Dr. Sabeel Ahmed, Executive Director, GainPeace Project.

“Previous educational campaigns of GainPeace have generated numerous calls of support  and building of alliances with interfaith groups, minority groups, and neighbors.’ Mr. Anwaar Khan, Board of Director at GainPeace and president of the Muslim Association of Bolingbrook (MAB).  MAB is partnering with GainPeace for the launch of the billboard outreach campaign.

Dr. Sabeel also noted that there had been some recent biased incidents targeting Muslims in Chicago and across the nation.

HEADSHARP, a personal development company that guides athletes to build a championship mindset for sports performance, this week launched a new, innovative sports performance app for student athletes, ages 10 and up.

The new app, which is completely free to download and use, comes with 80 animated videos, smart technology, and creative designs to help athletes learn, build positive routines, and prepare for game day. Once users register with the app, a colorful display of 15 championship buttons appear, providing parents and student athletes with free access to 5-topics to learn and sharpen their game.

“Sports are played with body, but won with the mind,” said Chris Noto, Founder and Owner of HEADSHARP. “Athletes need a healthy balance of positive mindset training. The goal is to educate them on topics they have been told cannot be taught, and to empower them to grow and be a guided resource.”

The app comes with 5 free levels, each containing whiteboard animated videos and sports motivational videos to set the tone for learning. Additional buttons can be purchased individually or unlocked all at once for a discounted price. Athletes also engage in multiple-choice smart exercises that give them a personal feel to prioritize their strengths and weaknesses in their sport.

App features include visualization and breathing exercises, guided routines, goal setting and self-assessments, weekly challenges for both on and off the field, and game day resources to access at any time.

“Having coached several youth champions, I can tell you there is a common theme in how they think, prepare, and bounce back, but also how families act,” said Noto. “What is motivating for me is when a 6^th grade athlete tells me they feel more confident now when faced with a daunting school project or is visualizing success with the game on the line. That’s exactly what we’re aiming to provide with this new app.”

Noto has over 20-years of experience coaching student athletes who have achieved peak performance in the high school athletics and academics. He is a certified performance coach, mental skills trainer, and NLP practitioner, as well as a former Pan Jiu Jitsu Medalist. He helped coach his brother to 2 Wrestling State Championships and High School All American honors in the late 1990s.

London, United Kingdom – 1 Jul, 2017 – The Institute of Trading and Portfolio Management have announced a multiple date tour of North American cities in September of 2017. The tour will pass through four major metropolitan areas and aims to Make Options Trading Great Again for Retail Traders in North America.

In September 2017, Institute Managing Partner Anton Kreil will be accompanied by Senior Trading Mentors Raj Malhotra, Ben Bergreen and David Perlin on a four-date seminar tour of North America. Quant Analyst Christopher Quill will also join. The tour called “Make Options Trading Great Again” will pass through Los Angeles, Dallas, Toronto and New York in the fall of this year.

Trading Options and knowing how to trade them properly is extremely important for Retail Traders. This is because through Trading Options, Retail Traders get implied leverage to their Trade Ideas. However, 75 per cent of Retail-listed Options Traders lose money. According to the Institute (http://itpm.com), this is due to simple reasons that are actually easily fixable with the right coaching.

Reason 1 – A lack of education in knowing how to generate high quality trade ideas;
Reason 2 – A mismatch between Trade Idea Thesis and Trade Structure;
Reason 3 – U.S. Equities Markets trading on all-time highs with Volatility trading at all-time lows.

With the knowledge that Institute Mentors have in this field, the North American Seminar Tour; Make Options Trading Great Again is set to deliver a high level of educational content.

Anton Kreil is an ex-Goldman Sachs Trader, Raj Malhotra used to run the Options Trading Desks at both Bank of America and Nomura Bank, Ben Berggreen has been trading Futures and Options Professionally for over 20  years, David Perlin used to run the International Trading and Sales desks at Goldman Sachs out of New York and managed his own Hedge Fund Keel Capital; and Christopher Quill used to be an analyst at the Number One returning Japanese Equity fund of the last 25 years at Ruffer Asset Management in London.

All Retail Traders of different backgrounds can sign up for the tour which starts in Los Angeles on September 12th and ends in New York on September 23rd with a half day “New York Mini Conference.”

September 12th – Los Angeles – Make Options Trading Great Again – REGISTER HERE 
September 14th – Dallas – Make Options Trading Great Again – REGISTER HERE 
September 21st – Toronto – Make Options Trading Great Again – REGISTER HERE 
September 23th – New York – NYC Mini Conference – REGISTER HERE

Commenting on today’s announcement Institute Managing Partner Anton Kreil made the following comment: “For too long now the Professional Trading world have sat back and watched so many horrible things happen to Retail Options Traders in the U.S. and Canada. It’s really not their fault that most of them lose money. They just haven’t been shown how to do it properly and naturally Retail Traders are always short on time, so it’s difficult for them to do consistently well. We’re coming to the U.S. and Canada with a lot of Professional Trading knowledge, experience and resources. We will pass this on to everyone who attends. We can’t wait to get on the road and meet everyone.”

SAVANNAH, GEORGIA – 1 Jul, 2017 – The discovery of an original journal fragment finally identifies its author and gives credibility to an account of a Revolutionary War massacre. The historic manuscript came as a surprise to some historians and as a welcome find that brings desperately needed attention to a region of the country that has lagged behind in research and preservation. Daniel Battle, battlefield archaeologist and founder of the non-profit Georgia American Revolution Preservation Alliance (GARPA), has been trying to bring attention to what Campaign1776 calls the 16^th bloodiest battle of the war. The Battle of Brier Creek, fought in present-day Screven County on March 3, 1779, was located on the fringes of a region many don’t associate the War for American Independence. “As strange as it may sound, the remote location is a real problem,” Battle claims. “It doesn’t matter that this was the first American offensive and major land battle that opened up the British Southern Campaign. It is one of the only battlefields of its kind still left in Georgia and is endangered even though it is state-owned.” 

The British attempt to subdue the Colonies had reached a stalemate in the north against American troops under the leadership of General George Washington. Desperate to regain momentum, the British shifted strategies and charged into Georgia. A large southern Patriot army was thrown together under the command of General Benjamin Lincoln with the intention of dislodging the British invaders from Georgia. “The American Army was in its infancy in the South and had not yet learned the hard lessons of how to fight against the British like their northern counterparts had,” Battle states. “This is an aspect of our history that so few Americans know and understand and is a failure in our education system to teach,” Battle claims. “The fate of Georgia all came down to one sizable showdown and the professional British Army struck smart and struck first.” 

Along the banks of the beautiful Savannah River, over 2,000 crack British troops made a brilliantly executed maneuver and trapped a similar number of Americans with their backs to the swamps. American Generals John Ashe and Samuel Elbert found themselves facing some of the best shock troops in the British Army, the 71^st Scottish Highlanders. “What happened next we wouldn’t know if not for the conscience of one unusual British officer,” explains Battle. The Patriot army had only minutes to form lines against a surging sea of British Red Coats bursting out of the woods. Some Patriots fired volleys and then large numbers took their chances with the alligators in the swamps. A brave island of soldiers, anchored by the Georgia US Continentals under Samuel Elbert, stood firm against a charge of Highlander Scots brandishing broadswords and bayonets. “The event personifies the spirit and sacrifice made by our Patriots in this state,” Battle claims.

“This is why discovering the materials in a Pennsylvania archive become important because they give more details about the price our forefathers paid to gain independence,” Battle explains. “What we found is a rare British officer account basically admitting that a massacre took place after these valiant Americans finally laid down their arms.” Even though a portion of this account was known, historians had lost all details of who gave it. The account was so descriptive and astonishing in its accusations that some became suspicious it may have been fabricated or embellished. “Not so,” claims Battle, “because the recent discovery came from Captain Thomas Hutchins of the 60^th Royal Americans who was not your average soldier.” He was already a published writer, cartographer, and considered Britain’s foremost expert on America’s western frontier. “His life was life was like an adventure novel,” Battle explains. Hutchins was a home-grown American from New Jersey with simple roots. When war erupted, he was serving as a British officer but refused to fight his own countrymen.

He was the only commissioned regular British officer known to have switched sides to the American cause during the entire war and was sworn into American service by Benjamin Franklin himself. He was later commissioned by General George Washington as the United States’ first official Geographer. Captain Hutchins clearly points the blame for a massacre on one of the most notorious figures of the American Revolution, Capt. “Bloody” James Baird of the 71^st Scottish Highlanders. This account was given credibility by the actions of American General Samuel Elbert of the Georgia Militia, who also held the rank of Colonel in the Continental Army. Elbert protested to the British commander that over 40 of his officers were bayonetted after their surrender and barely escaped being bayoneted himself. Battle claims this ranks right up there with some of the worst recorded massacres of the American Revolution. Baird was relieved of service in America following this event.

“While battlefields in most northern states have benefited from hundreds of scholars studying similar events, it has unfortunately been the opposite in much of the South,” Battle claims. “This has resulted in a lack of public knowledge and sense of need to preserve Revolutionary War resources and has been overshadowed by Civil War events. “Decades of previous decisions and even current events at the Brier Creek battlefield are perfect examples of how dismissive we have become to this region where the war also occurred,” Battle claims. GARPA was founded by individuals who became acutely aware of this issue. “After an archaeological study identified Brier Creek as an excellent opportunity to save a critical publicly-owned resource, the state has been largely nonresponsive.” “There were no public announcements; no sharing of the archaeological report; no communication with groups who would like to have input.” Within a year after the study was completed, GARPA members had to fight off an oil pipeline, destructive clearing, and camping activities that have endangered the burials left on the battlefield according to Battle. “This is Georgia’s largest Revolutionary War veteran cemetery filled with our first US soldiers,” he states. 

Battle claims GARPA is the only organization even trying to save Revolutionary War sites in the state and the future remains uncertain. “We would like to become a trust but we have struggled in getting donations or attention that could reverse this trend,” Battle says. “GARPA struggles with a public that is largely unaware of its Revolutionary War history. I mean, how many people know Georgia was the only Colony that was returned to British rule after declaring independence or that forces from here invaded another country three times?”

In the technology-driven world of today, the vast majority of quality jobs seem to revolve around the realm of S.T.E.M. (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math). These S.T.E.M. jobs seem to pay the best and have the best outlook for the years to come. As a result, teachers and parents around the world have begun introducing S.T.E.M. fields to children at early ages, enthralling them with the wonders of the natural world. However, a child-friendly introduction to the world of computer science, a vital application of S.T.E.M. subjects, has long eluded instructors. And as a result, there are thousands of job openings for computer scientists and few children showing interest in the field. Here to remedy this issue while entertaining children with a new learning format is a web platform by the name of Code Digs.

Code Digs was designed to be both educational and entertaining, allowing children to understand their progression through various topics in order to build their own drive to learn. The website currently revolves around three main levels of ‘difficulty’ called tracks including a beginner track, an intermediate track, and an advanced track. Within each track there are a variety of lessons ranging from a website creation module to a game design section, allowing children to explore suitable subjects that genuinely interest them. To break it down even further, each lesson has a set of ‘steps’ that contain little bits of knowledge and provide the content of the lesson.

For example, the website creation lesson has a step covering the parts of a webpage. These steps get their points across using pictures, videos, an interactive coding platform, previews, and more, providing a full learning experience to fit the needs of any student. As an added benefit, students earn points to be spent on aesthetics that can be used on the Code Digs platform, motivating their progression. Students can even share the games and websites they create with their class or teacher, showing just how much they have learned.  However, creating this vast and interactive curriculum is an ongoing task. To keep Code Digs’ content constantly up-to-date and expanding, the Code Digs team has launched a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter. Through the campaign page, readers can order access to the Code Digs curriculum for their children or students while supporting the Code Digs team. With this support, the Code Digs team is excited to be bringing the wonders of computer science to children everywhere.

London, United Kingdom – 04 July, 2017 – The developers of a new global test for aspiring doctors, created by the UK’s Royal Society of Medicine, the Medic Portal and the British education group, ASIS, have chosen Hong Kong as the launch-pad for what they believe will be a major contribution to the recruitment of new medics.

Launch of “FIT TO BE A DOCTOR?”
The new benchmark test for students considering a career in medicine

Launch Date: July 11, 1400 hrs.
Venue: The British Consulate, Hong Kong

‘Fit to be a Doctor?’ is a 90-minute on-line test for students aged 14-18 who are thinking about medicine as a career. It is designed to show the next generation of doctors what they need to do to gain entry to medical schools across the world. It will be available to take at test centres across the region led by Amber Education.

The new test will highlight the academic, social and communication skills required by 21st century doctors. The developers believe it is the first test of its kind on the market which gives aspiring medical students very practical guidance on precisely what standards they need to improve their chances in the highly competitive entry application process for medical careers.

Each test taker will receive a detailed analysis of their areas for improvement and to help them further, the Royal Society of Medicine is making available the latest research and best-practices from its video library, a resource normally reserved solely for RSM members.

Commenting on the launch, the Chairman of ASIS, Mr David Boddy, said: “This is the first in a series of careers tests specifically aimed at helping young people understand with far more clarity the requirements of the professions they are entering. The RSM and the Medic Portal are leaders in medical education across the world. Their aim is to ensure that standards of medical practice are at the highest possible levels going forward.

““Using the test results we are able to analyse whether a candidate’s ambition to go into the field of medicine is matched by their talents and aptitude. Furthermore, we can identify their strengths and weaknesses, not only academically but in terms of other vital skills needed in this particular field, and then outline which areas of medical practice they would be best suited for. This provides them with an invaluable insight into their potential future career path.”

He said that Hong Kong had been chosen as the launch venue because of the quality of its students and their options to study medicine in Europe, the USA and China. Potential doctors from Hong Kong are widely sought after.

The test is delivered via Pearson VUE technology, the partner of ASIS.

“Vision and Learning” by Heike Schuhmacher M.D.

Even children with average intelligence and perfect eyesight sometimes struggle with reading and writing, which makes it impossible for them to keep up in school. Few people  would suspect this may be due to an undetected problem with the child’s vision and information processing. These problems cannot be diagnosed with a normal vision test. Children who suffer from this condition experience difficulty focusing. They can only process information slowly because their brain is unable to properly make sense of visual or auditory perceptions. This new book helps parents, educators, and therapists understand the underlying causes of this condition and help their children and/or students overcome the problem.

“Vision and Learning” by Heike Schuhmacher M.D. familiarizes readers not only with Optometric Vision Therapy, but also with the functionality of the brain and why vision and learning are more connected than most people are aware of. It explores the neurophysiological processes underlying our visual and auditory functions, and explains terms like ”visual information processing” and “auditory information processing” in accessible language.

“Vision and Learning” by Heike Schuhmacher M.D. is now available from tredition or can alternatively be ordered by using ISBN 978-3-7323-9762-4. The main aim of the tredition publishing house is to provide young and unknown authors with the chance to publish their own books, and to offer cooperations to publishers and book sellers. Tredition publishes books across all media types, distribute them in the book industry, and also actively market books since October 2012.

SAN JOSE, CA – 6 Jul, 2017 – Chris Torres, the President of the Torres Chess and Music Academy, has been successfully inspiring California’s young chess players for over 20 years. During this time, his annual summer chess camp has proven itself a good training ground for the Bay Area’s brightest chess talent. This year’s San Jose summer chess camp is celebrating his 20 years of knowledge sharing by returning the tuition back to just $160/week the same price Chris charged in 1997! 

Over the past two decades Mr. Torres’ classes have attracted players of all abilities ranging from absolute beginners to national champions. Regardless of a child’s talent level, Chris believes that chess benefits all children by improving their decision making skills.

“Using the power of chess to teach children good decision making skills has always been the most important aspect of my coaching. I have personally witnessed how strong decision making skills allow children to excel in all aspects of life. Former students who are now doctors, lawyers, engineers and leaders in Silicon Valley continue to support my classes because they credit much of their successes to chess.”

The Torres Chess and Music Academy’s summer chess camp in San Jose, California will run from July 17-27’th and is open to players of all skill levels. Attendees will receive instruction from Chris Torres, other TCAMA coaches and several highly esteemed instructors including Frisco Del Rosario, Francisco Anchondo and Jay Stallings!

All students who complete two weeks of camp will receive a commemorative camp T-shirt, a special 1 on 1 follow up lesson with Chris Torres, and a hand signed diploma.

Pocatello, ID – The history of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) goes back to the Gracie family and their original teacher, Mitsuyo Maeda, and his training in the Kodokan, the home of Judo. Although similar in many respects to Judo and other traditional systems of Japanese Jiu Jitsu, BJJ differs in some fundamental ways from virtually all other related systems of self-defense. It is a staple fighting style for mixed martial arts (MMA) fighters and combat athletes. More importantly, it has brought widespread attention to the importance of ground fighting. Colossal Fight Company is one of the premier martial arts schools in Southeast Idaho that provides training for self-defense and combat sports.

“We focus heavily on grappling, and our instructors are experienced in Jiu-Jitsu, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Judo, Mixed Martial Arts, Wrestling, Self-defense, and combatives. Our instructors are active competitors, who lead by example by testing their skills on the local, regional, national, and international levels,” says David Gorham, one of the head instructors in Colossal Fight Company. He also competed in professional invitationals as a highlighted athlete and earned his brown belt in the Pedro Sauer Association in 2016.

Their classes are for both adults and children who seek help in fulfilling their fitness and lifestyle goals. Regardless of experience, anyone is more than welcome to join. Aspiring students usually have the fear in visiting an unfamiliar setting involving martial arts, but Colossal ensures that every client is treated warmly and most importantly, with respect. Their adult and youth programs are custom-tailored to create the appropriate learning environment for maximum understanding, retention, and effectiveness. Colossal constantly observes student progress and adjusts their teaching accordingly. Furthermore, each class is structured for each student, from beginners to more experienced students, to improve their ability constantly.

Training at Colossal equips students allows them to compete in many venues, including jiu-jitsu, judo, submission grappling, and mixed martial arts. Because the instructors actively compete at the local, regional, national, and international levels, students know they are receiving top-quality training. Additionally, Colossal Fight Company is not a “belt mill.” Student advancement is earned; ergo, their students feel an incredible achievement when promoted.

For people who want to learn more about their programs and class schedules, their website, http://www.colossalfightcompany.com, is up and running. They can be reached by phone at (208) 840-0766 or by email at colossalfc@gmail.com. Colossal Fight Company is located at 546 S. Main St, Pocatello, ID 83204.
