University of Florida Upgrades for Exponential E-Learning Growth - Converge
E-learning usage at the University of Florida has doubled every year since 2000, with more than 75,000 student seats in 1,300 courses in place today. As a top-tier research and land-grant institution, the university is required to aggressively conduct food and agricultural extension services to communities around the state, a role that dovetails with WebCT Vista's capabilities to support multiple institutions via a single instance of the software. Meanwhile, one of the school's main IT strategies is consolidating and centrally managing disparate systems for better service and lower cost of ownership. WebCT Vista will operate on the institution's Linux operating system, helping manage ownership costs while harnessing the deep experience of campus IT professionals.
