Realise the value of your Moodle LMS

Moodle is a world-class, highly flexible, open source online learning management system (LMS).  While the platform is free to access and use, its true flexibility and value (particularly versus proprietary LMS) can be realised by leveraging the expertise of a Moodle Certified Partner.

Moodle partner services 

Moodle certified partners offer a range of IT services to support organisations that use Moodle LMS: 

Hosting / Fully Managed Service

Having a reliable, high availability Enterprise LMS is paramount to supporting an online community of students and educators. Fully managed cloud hosting provides the peace of mind that your LMS has the load capacity to flex with the growing requirements of your business. Your Moodle should be an education instrument, not a technical responsibility. 

Having all your applications connected means that data from one system can be accessed by another one, to achieve streamlined communication across internal and external functions and audiences.

Automated provisioning of students and enrolments as well as best practice Single Sign On (SSO) across your education appliction suites is the expectation for your student cohort.

Moodle certified partners have tried and tested knowledge of the architectural principals required to integrate Moodle with your other core applications.  

Optimisation, Extensions and Customisation 

Moodle was built to be optimised, extended and customised. The “M” in Moodle stands for “Modular.” This is what gives you the power and freedom to make Moodle do anything you need.

Open source software is widely regarded as providing organisations the freedom to innovate, as it gives free access to the source code. What this means is that expert partners, like Catalyst, can deliver the Moodle LMS that you need to help you achieve your organisation’s goals.

Support & Training 

Access to expert support and training means that your business has a fast and effective way to support your LMS and your LMS admin team.  This provides assurance that you can respond to issues as they arise, but it also means that you are developing technical capability within your own business. 

Moodle partners transfer knowledge to your organisation which helps the community to grow further.   

Strategic Consultancy 

If you have a challenge or project that you’re not sure how to approach,  chances are a Moodle certified partner will have encountered it before.  By engaging a Moodle consultancy service, you will be able to leverage the in-depth knowledge and expertise of Moodle technology and the environments that it operates within.

Moodle Partners always have some valuable input about how to apply Moodle LMS to your business problem.

Implementation & Migration 

Implementation or migration of an LMS can be daunting and time consuming. There is a lot at stake, and  if you haven’t done it before or your organisation is large and complex then getting it right is critical … not to mention high profile. 

An experienced partner will work with you to understand your organisation’s structure and requirements, devise a plan and then execute that plan successfully. 

Reporting / Analytics 

The automation of reporting and analytics that Moodle affords is very powerful. Moodle learning consultants can help you build reports and dashboards to give you visibility of the key metrics that you need to track and report on.
