PHOENIX, Arizona (October 05, 2005) –

iLinc Communications, Inc. (AMEX:ILC), developers of Web conferencing software and audio conferencing solutions announced today that the Human Capital Institute (HCI), a think tank, professional organization, and educator in talent management strategies, has deployed the iLinc Web conferencing software to support their member acquisition and retention strategy, gaining more than 1,000 new members per month over the last several months.

“The Web casts that we perform with the iLinc software are a critical part of our new member acquisition strategy,” said Matt Fumento, chief operations officer for the Human Capital Institute. “We have conducted Web events for thousands of participants in the last few months and the iLinc software and support have been tremendous. iLinc provides an easy-to-use platform in which we can manage the large number of events that we do every month internally. iLinc delivers the technology, and importantly, the service that has ensured our success with our events.”

“Hundreds of associations use our conferencing services to exponentially expand their reach, acquiring new members and providing increased value to their existing membership,” noted James M. Powers, Jr., president and chief executive officer of iLinc Communications. “Our software enables organizations to replicate a large meeting experience via the Internet, allowing many associations to replace or supplement their traditional, in-person meetings with a more cost-effective Web cast. Our association customers commonly tell us that they are able to significantly reduce the costs associated with providing member events, gain new members globally that they otherwise would not be able to reach, and create non-dues revenue streams.”
