The 1980s
The early days: A vision for quality training materials
When artists like Billy Joel and Queen were turning out top hits, and the personal computer was making its big debut as a consumer product, the doors at Logical Operations were opening. It was 1982, and the company was started by Dom Fantauzzo and Barry Keesan. And while a lot has changed since then, our vision has not: to provide top-quality, instructor-led training materials that would empower both educators and learners.
In an era when personal computing was just beginning to gain traction, Logical Operations quickly became known for its meticulously crafted courseware, designed to help individuals and businesses navigate the complexities of emerging computer technologies.
The early course offerings focused on foundational computer skills, teaching the basics of software applications, operating systems, and early programming languages. The company’s emphasis on clear, well-structured content set it apart, establishing a reputation for reliability and educational excellence.
