In Brief…

A virtual learning environment (VLE) is a online software system designed to support teaching and learning in an educational setting. A VLE provides a collection of tools such as those for assessment, communication, uploading of content, return of students’ work, peer assessment, administration of student groups, collecting and organizing student grades, questionnaires, tracking tools, wikis and blogs.

Who needs one?

Any business, organization or individual that focuses on facilitating any form of educational course and/or assessment over the internet. This may include companies using a VLE for in house staff training & assessments, a university offering courses to distance learners over the internet or school teachers supplementing their offline curriculum with additional online resources.

How much?

Starting price of R 8 500.00 gives you a VLE installation with the default template. Depending on complexity of requirements the price will increase based on design, layout & functionality customization.
