[UPDATED] Presentation. Moodle™ as an Institutional Virtual Learning Environment

We’re proud to note that Lambda Solutions’ own Co-Founder Jim Yupangco gave a well-received presentation on Moodle as an Institutional Virtual Learning Environment at the BC Career College Association Conference. The presentation included an overview of some of the challenges that face learners, businesses and educators, explanation of open source software, steps for successfully using Moodle and a few case studies.

Some highlights that may be of interest to our current clients as well as prospective organizations looking to install or customize Moodle^™ software for their own systems:

First, the number of users of Moodle has increased hugely over the last decade and now includes well over one million registered users.

Other Open-Source software and social networks can be seamlessly integrated with Moodle.
