Saint Joseph’s College of Maine Chooses ANGEL LMS to Provide High Quality Student Learning Experience
For Immediate Release - Feb. 17, 2009
Indianapolis, Ind. – February 17, 2009 – ANGEL® Learning, a leading provider of enterprise eLearning software and services, today announced that Saint Joseph’s College of Maine has adopted the ANGEL Learning Management Suite (LMS) to enhance instruction on its Standish campus and to support its undergraduate and graduate online degree programs. Providing a high quality student learning experience was key to the college’s decision to adopt the ANGEL LMS.
“Selecting a system that is much easier for faculty and students to use was very important to us,” said Paul Cochrane, director of Course Design and Delivery, Saint Joseph's College of Maine. “We wanted faculty and students to immediately recognize an improvement over the system we used previously, and we’re already seeing that with our ANGEL adoption. Things that were a ten click process in our old system take one click in ANGEL. Features that previously required training are intuitive in ANGEL.”
Saint Joseph’s ANGEL adoption is impacting both on-campus and online instruction. “Our online students will now have a streamlined learning experience. We’re bringing everything online students need together under one umbrella,” Cochrane reported. On-campus students enrolled in classes that are piloting ANGEL are also responding positively to the college’s ANGEL adoption. After using ANGEL for just a short time, “they’re asking for more access to ANGEL tools,” Cochrane continued. “In ANGEL we’ve found a company that shares our commitment to student success and provides high quality service. We look forward to partnering with a company that shares our values.”
“ANGEL Learning considers each new ANGEL community member a partner. We invite them to participate in our product development process, and we work hard to provide the high quality service they need to succeed,” said Christopher Clapp, ANGEL Learning president and CEO. ”ANGEL Learning is pleased that Saint Joseph’s College of Maine shares our partnership philosophy. We are happy to welcome Saint Joseph’s to the ANGEL community and look forward to their participation in the ANGEL community.”
