South-Western asked Victory Productions to deliver final files for a brand-new six-book elementary series, Learning with Computers, in about six months. Victory's team developed and produced this series. For each text the product family also included a wrap teacher's edition and a teacher CD-ROM. On-time delivery of all materials for the series was critical for a state adoption.
Victory's project team was outstanding. Every person there was so enthusiastic about Learning with Computers. They displayed a "can-do" attitude no matter what we asked, and the deadlines were tight! The result was a wonderful, colorful series of project-based books for Levels K–5. We like working with Victory because they are creative, hard-working, and committed to delivering the best product possible. They are also among the nicest people we know.

I had heard good things about Victory, so when Gareth Stevens, Inc., decided to increase our share of the Spanish-language educational market, we turned to Victory to translate and produce Spanish editions of selected titles in our popular World Almanac Library of the States and Isaac Asimov’s 21st Century Library of the Universe book series. We are very pleased with the result. The vocabulary is at the appropriate reading level, and the translations are accurate and fully engaging to students as they awaken to concepts in social studies and science. The Spanish editions have been well reviewed and well received.

State-specific assessments, test prep materials, and correlations are demanding and must be produced on tight deadlines. Victory has come through for us every time. The project managers are efficient and solution-oriented. The writers are professional, and have both publishing and classroom experience. The compositors are accurate and fast, and our projects are always delivered on time. It is a pleasure to work with Victory.

Victory has pulled their writers together in a flash to produce strong, well-written content that is perfectly attuned to Prentice Hall's highly distinct and state-specific projects.
The production team puts 100% focus and effort in the quality of each and every page without batting a lash. Victory is a name that I know I can trust and rely upon for a vast array of editorial and production needs.

Recently, Benziger awarded the huge task of translating and producing a bilingual elementary religion program to Victory. In addition, we commissioned Victory to do both English and Spanish ancillaries. We were thrilled. Their skill and responsiveness made a difficult task move smoothly and on time. Their translation has passed muster all around the country.

We are very pleased with the projects that you have done for us. In particular, two of our major projects, The American Sign Language Handshape Flash Cards and The American Sign Language Handshape Starter, turned out beautifully. Both of these projects required handling hundreds of sign illustrations, placing them in a definite order, and making sure the accompanying text was correct. Clearly, you pay careful attention to the details and needs of each project.
We at Gallaudet University Press appreciate your talents, flexibility, and good humor during the production process. We will work together on another project soon.

Victory produced complex and beautiful maps for a Spanish textbook. Through all my dealings with Victory, everyone has been responsive, professional, and friendly. The results are exemplary, beyond my expectations.

When Thorndike started a line in Spanish, we located Victory, and it has turned out to be a great relationship. The staff is wonderful to work with—helpful advice and with plenty of "can-do" attitude. We are pleased with the quality and with the fact that they adhere to our tight schedules.

When we contracted Victory to write more than 600 math problems for our program Measuring Up e-Path, we expected accuracy and a timely delivery. We received that and more. Victory also gave us personal attention, establishing open communications and keeping us informed during all stages of manuscript delivery.
Victory’s math editorial team wrote math questions and responses that met our high standards. The math problems provide real help that will prepare students to meet the Texas TEKS and TAKS objectives.
That quality was matched by the professionalism and responsiveness of Victory’s management team. We received precisely what we wanted, with efficiency and good-humored courtesy.
We have confidence in Victory.

In order to quickly seize the opportunity to better serve our English language learner population, Pearson Learning Group turned to Victory Productions to help execute quick and exact translations of five of our flagship products into Spanish under an aggressive schedule.
Victory translated the appropriate portions of these titles into Spanish with patience and ease and met all schedule deadlines, no matter how tight the schedule. Victory was extremely understanding and accommodating while offering guidance and support throughout the entire process.
The resulting products have been well received by our market and meet our continued commitment to the English language learner by making required content accessible and understandable so that these students can meet content standards and improve their performance on standardized tests.
