Orland, FL, June 5, 2000 —VSI Communications Group Inc. announced today that it will soon release a dramatic new solution for corporations that need to quickly and effectively train and support employees migrating to Windows 2000. Mentor™ for Windows 2000 gives corporations an e-Learning tool for employees to master the intricacies of Windows 2000 during their regular work day without training. VSI Communications Group is a subsidiary of Metamor Worldwide, Inc. (Nasdaq: MMWW).

The new e-Learning tool offers an entirely new way to master Windows 2000—at the desktop—for a cost of less than a typical help desk call.

Users access Mentor™ for Windows 2000 on the fly, while they are using Windows. There is no lost productivity or downtime for classroom, computer-based, or web-based training courses.

Mentor™, the core brand behind Mentor™ for Windows 2000, is currently licensed to more than four million users at corporations ranging from IBM, DaimlerChrysler, General Electric, DuPont, Colgate-Palmolive, Duke Energy and 3M in addition to Reuters, Bell Atlantic, Philips Petroleum, Bayer and many smaller companies. Mentor's success and rapid adoption are due to the speed with which users can master new software on their own, and Mentor's ability to reduce training and ongoing support costs by as much as 40%.

"Mentor provides a just-in-time learning solution for companies that are deploying new applications and need highly-flexible strategies to manage training, support and help desk costs," says Dan Gallo, president and CEO of VSI Communications Group. Mentor for Windows 2000 is designed so new users can quickly achieve competence in the applications, while more skilled users can transform themselves into power users of Windows 2000."
