The Love of Learning program is tied to class enrollment at NetCom Learning. For every class registration, NetCom Learning fully funds a year's education for one child in an underdeveloped country.

The organization offers over 1,000 training courses from more than 20 vendors such as Microsoft, CompTIA, CISCO, PMI, Autodesk, and more.

The program partners with BRAC USA which is worldwide development organization which was originally founded in Bangladesh. BRAC helps the poor to take control of their own lives through education, micro financing, and community empowerment. To this date, BRAC has helped more than 126 million people in more than eleven countries in Asia, Africa, and the Caribbean. BRAC is listed as number 4 in the Top 100 NGOs list by The Global Journal.

"Our corporate purpose is to promote the values of lifelong learning. It is our mantra, it is not just a marketing gimmick, helping people to learn is part of our DNA, and it is how we operate our business on a daily basis. My goal is now that I have built a growing multimillion dollar business to pass on my love of learning to others," said Russell Sarder, CEO of NetCom Learning.

"The Love of Learning program is all about helping children to further their education, a goal which is close to my heart. The passion for learning has dominated my life, it is at the center of my career as a CEO. Even in the poor country of Bangladesh, parents instill a desire to excel at school. The funding from NetCom Learning's Love of Learning program in partnership with our friends at BRAC USA will help make a good education happen for children," said Sarder.

• The Love of Learning program is just one part of NetCom Learning's Learning Movement.

At Sarder TV, individuals learn from the experience of others who have created successful businesses, non-profit educational organizations, have become great educators, political leaders, or authors.
• An integral part of our nationwide learning movement is a series of short videos called "Learning Is…" where people share what has inspired them in their lives, what learning has means to them and why the concept of lifelong learning is so important to individuals and to the future of our world. Some of the interviewees include: Dan Hoffman, former CEO of M5 Networks, Inc.; Russell Stevens, former partner of SS+K which developed the Livestrong Campaign and Obama's 2008 advertising strategies; co-author of best-selling "Green to Gold", Andrew Winston; Kaplan College former President, Bill Rosenthal; President and CEO of Corridor Consulting, Inc., Russ Edelman; and Susan Davis CEO of BRAC USA.
