Qualcomm and ITI Collaborate to Offer Pro-TREAD Driver Training for Qualcomm’s MCP200 Series

Industry-leading Interactive Instruction Allows Drivers to Complete Safety Training in the Cab

SAN DIEGO - Qualcomm Incorporated (Nasdaq: QCOM), a leading provider of business-to-business wireless enterprise applications and services, and Instructional Technologies Inc. (ITI), the privately held leader in interactive, computer-based driver training, today announced that they are collaborating to provide the Pro-TREAD Training Series on the Qualcomm Mobile Computing Platform 200 Series (MCP200). ITI’s interactive Pro-TREAD In-Cab training will increase driver efficiency and productivity by enabling drivers to complete safety, regulatory and hazardous materials (hazmat) training during periods of non-driving downtime via a high quality in-cab multimedia experience. A demonstration of ITI’s training series and the MCP200 will be available for viewing in Qualcomm Booth #600 at the Truckload Carriers Association Annual Convention (TCA), March 8-11 in Orlando, Florida.

The MCP200 is designed to increase transportation company revenue by enabling drivers to provide better customer service and by enhancing in-cab productivity. An addition to the Qualcomm Mobile Computing Platform product line originally launched in September 2006, the MCP200 delivers an expanded set of award-winning OmniVisionSM Transportation Services, adding Wi-Fi , in-cab training, Internet access and multi-mode capability.

ITI’s Pro-TREAD training applies in-cab training technology, first developed for advanced pilot training, to the trucking industry. ITI provides sophisticated, interactive driver training to some 185 fleets in the U.S. and Canada, either at fleet terminals or anywhere via the Internet.

“The Qualcomm/Pro-TREAD collaboration allows a company’s drivers to receive safety training in a timely manner, which could help to prevent accidents before they happen and decrease the company’s liability,” said Norm Ellis, vice president of transportation and logistics sales and service for Qualcomm Enterprise Services. “By collaborating with industry leader ITI to include their solution on the MCP200, we can now offer our customers a more efficient training solution.”

“The integration of Pro-TREAD with Qualcomm’s MCP200 Series results in a powerful and highly effective in-cab training experience for fleet customers,” said Dr. James Voorhees, CEO of ITI. “The in-cab video capability of the MCP200 makes it an ideal platform for interactive, multimedia content delivery. It has been a pleasure to collaborate with the industry’s leader in end-to-end solutions for the transportation industry.”

The availability of Pro-TREAD In-Cab video training on the MCP200 can help increase driver compliance and satisfaction by allowing drivers to complete continuously updated training right in the cab, making valuable use of non-driving downtime. This and other premium capabilities of the MCP200 will enable fleets to effectively transform their cabs into mobile operations centers. Driver training and other important activities that were previously confined to a corporate office, field service center or driver kiosk can now be completed conveniently and efficiently inside the cab.

Pro-TREAD will be available on the MCP200 when the platform becomes commercially available in summer 2009.
