I want to thank any readers who attended the Webinar I presented on behalf of Campus Technology, “Portal, LMS, & Alert Solutions: Best of Breed or Single Source”. We discussed the savings and enhanced functionality we achieved at the college this year by implementing portions of the Timecruiser product suite. The recorded session is now available here (you will have to register with the site in order to view the presentation, or just log in if you are already registered).

I’ll also mention that this coming week I’ll be digging into online tutorial applications, so please be sure to stop by and learn with me!
