insight
Newcastle University is a modern university with a proud tradition, committed to world-class academic excellence. We’re proud to have worked with Newcastle University on numerous projects, including the Short Online Courses eLearning platform. This platform allows users the flexibility to study remotely, in their own time.
vision
Newcastle Universities Faculty of Medical Sciences identified an opportunity to provide Short Online Courses for Continuing Professional Development (CPD) to external customers. Attempts to use other products proved unwieldy and offered no mechanism for taking payments. A bespoke solution was sought to integrate tightly with the Moodle eLearning platform to offer both a robust and flexible learning platform and a fit-for-purpose eCommerce solution.
impact
Working closely with project managers and experts at Newcastle University, Boxmodel’s agile approach to development allowed for effective project delivery. Full integration and synchronisation with Moodle were achieved, as well as integration with the University’s payments platform, WPM.
