LTP Launches eLearnGate, A Customized Portal for the
Education Market
Learning Technology Partners (LTP), a San Francisco
based eLearning integration and outsourcing company, today announced
the launch of eLearnGate, a customized eLearning portal for the
higher education and continuing education markets. This new portal
focuses on the educational and training requirements of learners
and instructors by bringing eLearning resources and technologies
together into a custom-built, hosted, dynamic website.
"eLearnGate is more than a portal, it is
an eLearning community. Learners and instructors can go to one
page to retrieve their critical information, stay in touch, and
get to their classes. And because LTP is behind it, we know that
it will be up and running with no problems," said Leslie
Roe, Dean of Economic Development for the Chabot-Las Positas Community
College District and Director for Training and Development Solutions.
eLearnGate is designed to meet a variety of
client needs. Students and faculty access school information via
their own individualized homepage. Portals include welcome announcements,
calendars, news and information postings, and links to eLearning
platforms and assessment tools. They bring together faculty directories,
surveys, online registration, calendars, course catalogs and schedules,
interactive discussion forums, e-commerce, and more, fostering
a sense of community and enabling the exchange of best practices.
Valuable assets such as libraries, bookstores, and reference materials
are also available through these comprehensive sites.
eLearnGate is available for all institutions
regardless of whether they offer complete eLearning or blended
learning solutions, collaborative or self-paced classes. With
eLearnGate, schools customize their portals by making choices
in layout and design and selecting from a suite of portal features.
For clients who want specialized functionality or additional features,
the eLearnGate team is available to perform custom work as needed.
"Now that online education has moved from
'nice-to-have' to 'must-have', we are focusing our attention on
providing the most comprehensive gateway available - bringing
all eLearning technologies into one place, whether it's signing
on email, accessing class materials, or registering for classes.
eLearnGate is the framework for bringing and integrating all of
our technologies together - we now have a complete suite of ASP
technologies accessible through one easy to use interface - all
at a very reasonable price," said Reda Athanasios, President
of Learning Technology Partners.
