They had to finish the MAPS simulation project before the newest version of the software rolled out. Stretched by other IT projects and deadlines, they discovered ToolBook and the eLearning experts at Interactive Advantage. The Interactive Advantage team went to work right away and gathered all the TruGreen subject matter necessary for the assignment.
