Inaugural Certified Review Program Oversubscribed: Catalyst Required to Add Two More Sessions Denver Colorado, November 4, 2009. Catalyst Repository Systems announced today that its inaugural Certified Reviewer Training, recently held in Washington DC, was so overrun with registrations that the company added two additional sessions in attempt to meet the demand. "We were thrilled with the enthusiastic response," said Patty Daly, Catalyst's Director of Training. "After the first round of sessions filled up, we decided to add two more trainings and those filled just as quickly. Eventually, we had to turn people away." The training was held for members of Posse List, a resource and networking site for contract attorneys. "The program was popular with our group because being trained and certified on such a widely used system as Catalyst CR is not only a great skill, but makes you more marketable as a contract attorney," said Gregory Bufithis, Founder and Chairman of the Posse List. Due to the popularity of the DC sessions, Catalyst and the Posse List are taking the training on the road to other US cities including Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Los Angeles, New York, Philadelphia, and San Francisco. "We are excited about the participation and interest of the Posse List members, not only in DC but also from other cities around the country," said Daly. "They are a knowledgeable, experienced group of attorneys and we are delighted to have them learning CR." Launched earlier this year, the program began as a web-based training designed for managed review groups and trains individuals on review using Catalyst CR's Assigned Review Module. So far, the program has netted 300 registrants and certified more than 150 individuals with nine managed review companies.
