Learn It Live Launches First Global E-learning Marketplace and Expert Continuing Education Network
Unique complete learning management system delivers sessions for certifications and credits worldwide
ATLANTA and NEW YORK, June 8, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Learn It Live, the first online network to give professional instructors and institutions a turnkey solution for conducting e-learning, announced today that its flagship Learn It Live service is now available to continuing education professionals seeking to expand their reach worldwide. The Learn It Live service launched today at the International Conference on E-learning in the Workplace (ICELW) being held at Columbia University in New York City, June 8-10.
Learn It Live is distinguished among e-learning platforms in that it is provided without cost to instructors; however, instruction is restricted to select experts with a proven track record of excellence and who are generally authorized to provide certifications, continuing education credits and accredited courses. Learn It Live extends these continuing education offerings over the Internet to students who would otherwise be unable to participate due to location and time constraints.
"The ICELW Conference brings together researchers and practitioners from such a wide variety of countries and backgrounds to truly create a unique and valuable forum, however, we realize that many potential attendees are limited by time or money," said David Guralnick, ICELW conference chair. "Learn It Live's complete e-learning marketplace platform has allowed us to effectively market to, as well as serve these individuals with a valuable interactive and live educational experience while generating additional revenue which would not be possible otherwise."
Educators can use Learn It Live to teach online the same way they do in person – with real-time interaction, multimedia presentations, open discussions and more. The Learn It Live learning management system (LMS) provides all the infrastructure educators need to offer and market courses, enroll students, process payments and conduct one-on-one sessions, group classes, seminars and conferences with learners located anywhere in the world.
"Learn It Live not only makes interactive, online education practical; it makes it profitable by enabling new revenue streams from learners outside the immediate region," said Sidney Slover, Learn It Live president. "Our initial customers are pleased at the ease with which they've extended their reach to thousands of students, coming from 28 countries and growing, that they never would have imagined reaching before."
Learn It Live offers continuing education courses in five high-demand areas:
Learn It Live's continuing education is currently offered by such esteemed entities as the Halle Institute at Emory University, The Technology Association of Georgia, Training Programs in Epidemiology and Public Health Interventions Network, The PAR Group, HandsOn University, the Impact Speaker Series, the Wound Ostomy and Continence Nurses Society and many more.
"The competitive marketplace has created tremendous demand among professionals for continuing education, skill-building and job retraining," said Tino Mantella, President of the Technology Association of Georgia. "Partnering with Learn It Live has enabled us to meet that demand with the largest possible student reach."
Learn It Live is in partnering discussions with additional educators; interested parties should contact the company at [email protected]
