STAMFORD, CT - July 22, 2002 -- Leading testing and assessment software company Questionmark and i3Dimensions Inc., an emerging leader in interactive 3D visualization and simulation software tools, today announced a new technology partnership to deliver significant advances in e-learning.

"This 3D graphics technology offers a great way to reduce costs and increase organizational efficiency. Many of our customers stand to benefit from being able to run highly interactive Perception assessments with Pixel3 visualizations."
