</noinclude> iLinc Communications is a Phoenix, Arizona-based software company. iLinc Communications is most notable for LearnLinc and later iLinc, a live interactive training software and web conferencing tool. History On June 14th, 1992 Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute received a grant from AT&T that helped fund Jack Wilson‘s (physics department dean of RPI at the time) idea of Live interactive training software using networks. The first three people to work on the project, its founders, were James O’Keefe (President), Mark Bernstein (Sales) and Degerhan Uselel (Development). On June 16, 1994 the "iLinc" Company was officially formed. At the time iLinc stood for Interactive Learning International Corporation (the n was added so it was not ilic/iLick). On November 4, 2002 EDT Learning purchased the LearnLinc technology and renamed the product "iLinc" and was soon to offer the product as various hosting solutions. In 2007, the company announced support for the Macintosh computer. In 2008, the state of South Carolina adopted iLinc for web-based conferencing.
