KENT, ENGLAND, June 17, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Growth for e-learning solutions in Australia is amongst the highest in the world. The expertise that Androgogic's team has in learning technologies helps meet the demand for lower cost, highly flexible solutions. TotaraLMS is an open source learning platform based on Moodle, and offers the twin attributes of high adaptability and low cost, and this strongly aligns with Androgogic's strategy.
The market for open source solutions for learning technologies is maturing. In the past, the top reason for selecting an open source solution was lower costs. Richard Wyles, CEO of Totara stated,
"The market's rapid uptake of TotaraLMS is indicative of a broader trend where there is a now a greater understanding of the transformative value of open source. It's more to do with getting the best value, rather than thinking open source is absolutely free, and buyers are starting to understand this more. Open source provides greater flexibility both in terms of solution design and the freedom to select your support provider. Androgogic is a significant addition to offering that choice. They have depth of expertise with open source learning technologies such as Moodle and we have very strong demand for TotaraLMS in the Australian public and private sectors. Androgogic adds some real firepower to offering integrated solutions for corporate and government clients."
CEO Alexander Roche said, "We are hitting the ground running with Totara LMS which is a polished LMS offering. Totara leverages the best of Moodle and offers, in addition, some very accurately focussed functionality required in the corporate training sector. We look forward to having satisfied customers and a long and beneficial relationship with the Totara team. We are already deploying Totara in a NSW government initiative and can see Totara delivering massive benefits to our clients."
