As part of our ongoing commitment to the open-source software movement, we have successfully implemented Moodle for the National Association of Pediatric Nurse Practitioners (NAPNAP). Moodle is widely considered the leading open-source learning management system and offers an extensive set of features, including:

• Custom course registration management.
• Automatic grading and certificate generation.
• SCORM 1.2 and Section 508 compliance.
• Multimedia course support.
• E-commerce.
• Robust reporting and metrics.
• External database integration.
• Scalability (up to 50,000 learners).
• And, accessible to hundreds of other feature modules.

By selecting Moodle, we are able to:

• Implement for our client a robust, customizable learning management system.
• Dramatically reduce development costs and time.
• Better control for risk and quality assurance.
• Leverage the broad development resources on the Web.

Our experience with the Moodle continues to be very positive and we have a number of new client implementations planned in the near future. Moodle™ is a registered trademark of the Moodle Trust and is distributed under the GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE.
