Online Education Solutions
One of the challenges we are facing with COVID-19 is creating Online Education Solutions so that our schools and other education facilities can continue. Imagine what would happen if a school had to shut down for twelve months. This is where Online Education Solutions can work.
Lets say ten public Primary Schools with three hundred students each were forced to close due to a COVID-19 outbreak for six months. Then how do those 3000 students maintain their education? It is impossible to drop it on the the parents and trying to bolt something together over Skype or Zoom is too hit and miss, so how do you do it. The best way is the build an Online Education Solution!
What is an Online Education Solution?
An Online Education Solution is a website that is built specifically to deliver education content online. It contains a member function that locks people out who are not supposed to have access. It has a Learning Management System (LMS) which handles all of the learning functionality which includes
- Courses, lessons, topics, quizzes
- Reporting
- Certifications
- Settings for prerequisite courses/lessons
- Awards and gamification for engagement
and lots of other customisations.
At Online Training Platforms we build Online Education Solutions on the WordPress platform. WordPress powers over 40% of the worlds websites and is easy to use. We look after everything for you so all, you have to do is focus on the content and the delivery.
An Online Education Solution should be able to
- accommodate all there different classes at the same time
- have quizzes built in that validate learning
- be secure so that no one else can get in
- provide recorded lessons so that students can make up for lost time if they are ill
- built on stable platform that is easy to navigate and use
- accept new content in a heartbeat.
Lets face it if you had a Online Education Solution like that, your life would be so much easier.
How do you get an Online Training Solutions
You have a few different options when it comes to building Online Education Solutions
- You can build your own. This needs you to have access to developers who play in this space every day
- You can use a SaaS (Software as a Service) provider (we will not mention names) however these are expensive and have minimal customisations. Also be extremely careful as to who owns the content you put up on one of these systems. In many cases the SaaS provider has a right to publish you content.
- You can use someone like us. A company that this is all that they do. We can either build it for you and then you run it or we can build it and maintain it for you, almost like a lease.
So there are plenty of options for you. If you want to know more then by all means contact us using the following form we would be more than happy to help you through this process – and YES a conversation is free, after all, we are all in this thing together 😉
