Thanks, Moodle seems like a fairly popular one although I think there are some nicer ones like eFront.

Doing this as a startup as opposed to company internal training or an educational institution means that you want to present yourself well and create a user experience that you're proud to send your customers to. Seems hard to find!


@Terrence_B: Good to see that you've stumbled across eFront. Not sure what version you looked at, but be sure to check out the 3.6 version being released at the end of January (beta available on the eFront website).. pretty radical change to the theme engine, tighter integration options, etc.

There has been support for add-on modules for a while now, but for the hackers, the 3.7 release later this year is a fairly big architecture change and opens up the entire platform similar to how Wordpress manages their plugins in terms of hooking, etc.

Let me know if you have any questions and I'll do what I can to assist.


Yeah, that's right. Looking to put the material online and the students work through it by themselves. Taking the approach that the teacher can be replaced by the community helping one another. This is a whole other debate though isn't it... :)
