Opportunity Learning has been an integral part of the Technology industry and ecosystem. Having the right skills in the work force have influenced the growth of the IT services industry for the past few decades, fueling industry growth and the economy. Microsoft Learning programs offering world-class curriculum and certification have been a key factor to availability of trained and skilled manpower driving technology deployment and adoption. Learning styles have undergone a significant transformation. This is primarily driven due to ubiquitous connectivity and availability of devices with rich content and media capabilities. Over time, demands on traditional Learning Platforms such as LMSs have increased: Students have demanded more engaging video-based content on these platforms, consumable from their personal mobile devices. Organizations and Educators have requested learning analytics to help better visualize their students’ progress and engagement. Administrators have been pressured to educate more students with fewer resources by leveraging new learning platforms such as Massively Open Online Classes (MooCs). At Microsoft, we are enabling our partners to help transform their businesses through a blend of Platform, Technology, and Curriculum to offer their customers whether individual or Enterprise / Institution a complete end-to-end connected Hybrid Cloud Learning Platform solution. We have standardized on Open edx, an open-source learning platform with multiple capabilities and purposed the deployment framework on the Microsoft Cloud Platform Azure ™. We have built modern learning content, which can be offered in Self-Paced, or MOOC based / Blended modalities. This rich portfolio of courses addresses various learner needs from conceptual, domain / job role specific content to deep technical skills with assessments to help develop the right skills applicable for new and emerging job-roles. Microsoft would provide learners with credentials acknowledging their completion and skills acquisition through Certificates Partners with a Cloud competency and the Learning option would now be able to offer “Learning As A Service” (LaaS) through the Open edX Platform on Azure™. You would be able to provide Self-Paced / Blended Learning Solutions to individual / corporate learners You would be able to provide Learning Services such as Labs, Mentoring, Learner Support etc. You would be able to provide the solution to your customers purely as a SaaS solution or Deploy it as a Cloud Solution for their customers as a System Integrator.
