Executive Summary
For over 20 years, Progressive Expert Consulting (PEC) has pioneered concepts to provide both synchronous and asynchronous training with the full capability of in-person learning, all within a virtual setting.
In 2003, PEC worked with the Department of Defense to develop SOFTS, the Special Operations Forces Teletraining System for USSOCOM. SOFTS is currently the longest functioning Virtual School in the DOD.
In 2013, PEC also created the Air Force eMentor Language Program, which is the virtual school platform of the Language Enabled Airman Program (LEAP).
"PEC provides a comprehensive virtual learning solution to our clients, that includes both the virtual meeting and class collaboration infrastructure as well as support and training for the instruction component in a completely controlled and secure environment."
— Tim Feng, COO


PEC's Virtual School and vConnect are trusted by the Department of Defense, the Pentagon, USSOCOM, the National Guard, and many others.
How they do this
In order to offer a complete virtual learning and training program, PEC developed vConnect. This video collaboration platform delivers private, secure and effective instruction with high resolution, lip-synced video and audio classes.
vConnect provides the virtual meeting and class collaboration infrastructure that PEC's Virtual School is built upon. The platform meets the stringent requirements for high-level security required by their government and military clients.

Their video training and collaboration platform has non-cloud, on-premises scalability. To ensure client identities remain protected and confidential, PEC runs their Virtual School on their own infrastructure.
PEC also controls everything for the use — from top level video and audio controls, security of the meeting rooms, right down to the control of devices utilized on each workstation.

PEC has established an impressive record of providing virtual learning, training and collaboration to support thousands of government contract clients.
