PRIMEDIA to Explore Strategic Options for Its Workplace Learning Division

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 24, 2004--PRIMEDIA Inc. (NYSE:PRM) today announced that it will explore strategic options for the company's Workplace Learning division. Workplace Learning is a division of PRIMEDIA Education and Training and provides integrated learning solutions for more than eight million professionals in the industrial, healthcare, banking, automotive, fire and emergency, government and law, and security markets.


PRIMEDIA said that its Interactive Medical Network division of Workplace Learning would not be part of this strategic initiative.

Kelly Conlin, president and CEO of PRIMEDIA stated: "Over the last year, we have invested and will continue to invest in properties and assets that fit within our core business focus. After careful review, we have concluded that Workplace Learning would be better operated and generate greater value to organizations fully engaged in the education and training disciplines. Given these factors, we have decided to explore options and manage an orderly process designed to generate maximum value to PRIMEDIA."

PRIMEDIA has retained education and training specialist investment bank Berkery Noyes & Co., LLC to manage the process.
