DULUTH, GA - Mar 10, 2009 - Curriculum Advantage™ Inc. today announces that its flagship product, Classworks™, has been named a 2009 CODiE Awards finalist in two categories. Classworks comprehensive K-12 instructional software is a finalist for “Best Reading/English Instructional Solution” and “Best Science Instructional Solution.” Established in 1986 by the Software & Information Industry Association (SIIA), the CODiE Awards celebrate outstanding achievement and vision in the software, digital information and education technology industries.
