1. About Moodle
Moodle is an online learning management system (LMS), used by educators in both academia and enterprise in over 238 countries around the world. It was developed in Australia, which explains some unusual spellings you may come across in the platform.
With over 461 million users, Moodle is the world’s most widely used learning platform. Moodle is Open-Source, which means that it is free for anyone to download and use. Moodle remains open-source through support from an active network of certified Moodle Partners, as well as an active community of developers, users, and supporters.
Our Moodle platform is licensed through Cornell Cooperative
Extension’s Distance Learning Center (CCEDLC).
