Greg Berryman is the Founder of Performance E Learning, Inc. After graduating from Western Kentucky University in 1981, Greg went to work for IBM in Cincinnati, Ohio as the marketing representative focusing on the hardware and software needs for students in grades K-12. Greg spent the next 15 years working in numerous IBM positions in sales, management, and marketing addressing many issues related to educational delivery options in the K-12 industry.

In 1998 Greg founded The Citadel Group International with the purpose of creating the "Virtual Learning Academy" (VLA) to provide e-learning opportunities for students throughout the United States. The VLA was launched in the first quarter of 1999.

Since its inception, the "Virtual Learning Academy" expanded to numerous districts in the United States, successfully serving several thousand students who have earned high school credit toward their graduation requirements or college entry mandates.

In the second quarter of 2001, Greg began creating a marketing infrastructure that currently includes Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, Texas, Arizona, California, and Puerto Rico.

With the increase in company growth and expansion and focus, the name of the company was changed to more adequately reflect the organization's mission and goals and future. Therefore, in 2002, Performance E Learning, Inc, was established to reflect the new generation of K-12 educational solutions that will allow the promise of technology in learning to be realized around the globe.

Sandra L. Shellenberger is the President of Performance E Learning, Inc. She holds a Master of Education degree from The Pennsylvania State University, State College, Pennsylvania and has completed an additional 90+ semester hours of coursework at Xavier University in Cincinnati, Ohio and Wright State University in Dayton, Ohio in the areas of educational leadership and administration.

Sandy worked as a Home Economist for West Penn Power Company, a large public utility company in Western Pennsylvania, before entering the teaching profession. In 1969, she joined a school district in Pennsylvania, where she taught for eight years. In 1977 Sandy relocated to Ohio and began what would be a 25- year career in Ohio education, both as a classroom teacher and as an administrator. Two of her roles included being an assistant superintendent for a large city school district serving 10,000 K-12 students and 8,000 adults and an assistant superintendent for a career-technical district serving students and adults from eight different local school districts.

During her tenure in public education, Sandy taught a variety of adult community education classes and is currently an adjunct professor for Wright State University, where she teaches courses relative to teacher certification. She also worked with The J.C. Penney Co. in Pittsburgh to develop and deploy courses specific to the organization's houseware's department to showcase and promote related products.

During her last three years in public education, Sandy worked with a public school district to assist in implementing a virtual environment of learning for secondary students and adults. Not only was she involved with the deployment of courses directly to students, she made presentations to educational groups and provided training to educators who were utilizing the virtual courses.

As President of Performance E Learning, Sandy supports the Founder in his efforts to deploy the company's online solutions, while assuming responsibility for course development, training, and all other educational components relative to the online solutions.
