SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., March 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- As a committed endorsing partner of the Common Core State Standards Initiative (CCSSI), e2020, Inc., announces all existing courses have been aligned to the Common Core Standards. Additionally, new courses developed by the company will utilize Common Core State Standards to create the course matrix, and scope and sequence.
