eLearning 24-7

Courses – regardless if self-paced (which they have always been, hence the reason around WBT) or synchronous-based, think the syllabus or stop and wait approach that EdTech – meaning K-12 and higher education use frequently.

Neo LMS allows true asynchronous based learning (self pace, non-linear) on top of the standard synchronous based seen throughout education. As with corporate, due diligence is all over the board, when I see RFPs that are huge as in 20 plus pages, I already know that due diligence really wasn’t there. 36 pages?
