Moodle Partners and the Moodle Community

Online, April 19, 2010 (Newswire.com) - 1. The Moodle Community

Since Martin Dougiamas started work on 'Martin's* Object Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment' some 12 years ago, it is safe to say, Moodle has become a bit of a success story. It was recently quoted as dominating the elearning market just as, "Google dominates the search engine market" (Dr. Geoff Elliot, walesonline.co.uk).

For many though, it is not the fact that Moodle is becoming a world leader that is impressive. As with every great product the gratitude starts to wane, we grow complacent and start to expect nothing less than 100% productivity. What many users are continued to be impressed by is the global community that supports Moodle with such enthusiasm.

Try asking a question on Moodle.org that hasn't already been asked and answered several times. Those new to Moodle can login to have their concerns addressed and questions answered. Those with more experience find a role in giving advice and the people with advanced Moodle expertise can bicker among themselves as they challenge each other's knowledge.

2. The Moodle Partner

Moodle Partners play a fundamental role in the Moodle community. Moodle is provided freely as Open Source Software, which is made possible by the financial support from the Moodle Partners, through clients who pay for specific development.

Moodle Partners are companies who have been directly authorised by Moodle HQ to provide services to users of Moodle software. As an approved Moodle Partner, Synergy Learning is dedicated to Moodle's long-term vision and we are actively involved in developing the software in line with Moodle's goals.

Roy Kerley, Owner/Director of Synergy Learning comments:

"We have been vetted on several levels, so we are confident our knowledge is the best. We are passionate about abiding by the high standards set by Moodle and make it our priority to be educated in new Moodle issues as they arise.

By choosing to work with Synergy Learning, our clients help provide the funding that is essential to the success of Moodle, making sure it continues to break new ground in elearning."
