The guidance in Item 303(a) of Regulation S-K, specifically paragraphs (a)(1) and (2), requires an analysis of your liquidity and capital resources.

For further guidance on the overall approach to MD&A, including the presentation, content, and focus of the disclosure, please refer to Sections III and IV of the SEC Interpretive Release No. 33-8350, and Sections 501.03, 501.12, and 501.13 of the Financial Reporting Codification.

For each listed individual, please provide a complete description of the principal business activities (occupations, employment, positions held) during most recent five years, leaving no gaps or ambiguities with regard to time. With respect to Mr. Shapiro, you do not disclose the names of several of the companies he worked for, nor do you disclose what occupation he held during the period from 2006 to 2010. With respect to Ms. Franey, you similarly do not disclose the name of the staffing company she founded, nor do you provide discernible dates for her periods of employment.
 
Also, clarify for your two officers how much of their respective professional time has been and will be devoted to your business. Finally, for each director or person nominated or chosen to become a director, briefly discuss the specific experience, qualifications, attributes or skills that led to the conclusion that the person should serve as a director, in light of the registrant’s business and structure. Refer generally to Item 401(e) of Regulation S-K.

We note your statements that “Mr. Shapiro has been recognized by the health care industry as an innovator in the hiring process and developed a copy written hiring process which yielded a success rate of over 98% for hiring of “A” players into companies” and that he “has directed some of the largest hiring programs in the history of the health care staffing business.” Please substantiate these statements, defining any industry term such as “A player,” or remove them from your filing.
 
Response #15:
 
We will amend the 8-K accordingly.
 
Comment #16:
 
16. 
We note that you will retain the fiscal year of the legal acquirer (i.e., February 28). Since you will be required to file a transition report after the consummation of the reverse merger and recapitalization, Item 5.03(b) of Form 8-K requires that you also disclose the form (e.g., Form 10-K or Form 10-Q) on which the report covering the transition period will be filed. For further guidance on the transition report, refer to Exchange Act Rules 13a-10 and 15d-13 and FRC 102.05.
 
Response #16:
 
There was a clerical error: the Company actually intended to retain the accounting acquirer’s fiscal year end, December 31.  A transition report therefore is not required.
 
According to Section 12240.4 of the SEC Financial Reporting Manual, if the registrant adopts the fiscal year of the accounting acquirer and if the accounting acquirer is a private operating company, then: the registrant should file a Form 8-K to include the financial statements of the accounting acquirer for the latest fiscal quarter that already passed, if the original Form 8-K filed for the reverse acquisition did not include such financial statements.    
 
Based on the foregoing, the Company is amending the 8-K to include the unaudited financial statements of the accounting acquirer for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 (the “First Quarter Financial Statements”).  The Company filed the audited financial statements of the accounting acquirer for the year ended December 31, 2012 but did not include the First Quarter Financial Statement because the First Quarter Financial Statements were not required as of the filing date of the 8-K.

Item 9.01 Financial Statement and Exhibits General
 
Comment #17:
 
17. 
Please include all exhibits under your list at Item 9.01(d). We note that Exhibit 99.2 was not included and, further, that it was uploaded to EDGAR as your “Bylaws.”
 
Response #17:
 
The exhibit is filed under the wrong title due to a clerical error. Therefore, Exhibit 99.2 should be under the title of “Financial Statements,” instead of “Bylaws.” We will amend the 8-K accordingly.
 
Comment #18:
 
18.  
Please ensure that all material contracts are disclosed in the filing and filed as exhibits. See Item 601(b)(10) of Regulation S-K. As examples, it does not appear that you have filed the “[d]istribution arrangements . . . with major companies” or the “long-term agreement with AMERINET” described under your section entitled “Significant Accomplishments.” Similarly, please file the “license agreement with [Florida International University]” described under your section entitled “Intellectual Property,” the Course Development and Management Services Agreement with FIU and the Assignment of Trademark and Trademark Application Agreement with IAS, or provide us with an analysis as to why these do not need to be filed.
 
Response #18:
 
We will amend the 8-K accordingly.
 
Comment #19:
 
19.  
Please ensure that you have filed complete versions of each of your material contracts, including any schedules and exhibits. Please refer to Item 601(b)(10) of Regulation S-K. We note that Schedule 5 of Exhibit 4.1, Exhibit A of Exhibit 10.1, and Exhibits A and B of Exhibit 10.2 are missing. In addition, the Securities Purchase Agreement does not have the signature pages that identify the Investors.
 
Response #19:
 
We will amend the 8-K accordingly.

Comment #20:

Please file an amended Form 8-K with the financial statements of the accounting acquirer for the most recently completed quarterly period prior to the date of the reverse recapitalization. Refer to Rule 8-08 of Regulation S-X.

Comment #21:
 
2l.  
Please include pro forma information in your next amended Form 8-K. Refer to Rule 8­05 of Regulation S-X.
 
Response #21:
 
The pro-forma financial statement is not required as the ongoing results of the Company will be that of the accounting acquirer.  The operations of the legal acquirer were split-off at the time of the transaction.

Comment #22:
 
22.  
We note your disclosure that you issued 750,000 shares of common stock does not agree with the amount of shares reflected on your stockholders’ equity statement on page F-4 of 75,000. Please amend the 8-K your disclosure as necessary.
 
Response #22:
 
We will amend the 8-K accordingly.
 
We hereby acknowledge that:
 
the Company is responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in all of its filings;
 
staff comments or changes to disclosure in response to staff comments do not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filings; and
 
the Company may not assert staff comments as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States.
 
 
Very truly yours,
