Over the last months we had several requests from corporate clients for a course administration tool supporting online and on site courses in complex organisations.
After several discussions we are starting now with developments. We checked several other tools and decided to use the Moodle core system as engine for this development. The development will be as open as possible and we invite you to participate.
Requirements:
- Course catalogue for all types of courses
- Visibility of courses based on user profile fields (only visible for hierarchy level 2, or only for sales people)
- Extended user profiles
- corporate information
- department
- hierarchy
- ...
- Enrollments
- Approval processes
- by superior
- by HR manager
- by course creator
- by teacher
- Course access by preconditions (results in other course)
- Approval processes
- Certificates
- Limitation of vaildity
- Extended MyMoodle
- Actual courses
- Course where I'm a teacher
- Course history - Certificates
- Courses from my team members (for superiors)
- Reports
- course reports
- system wide reports

The implementation ist planned in this way:
- use of a Moodle 2.0 instance as administrational tool connected with one or more Moodle systems for online courses. This means online Moodle course system can be updated independently
- system data exchange via Web Services
- modular development of new functionalities
- new enrollment processes
- cancellation process
- course catalog
- expanded MyMoodle page
- report engine
- new or expanded functionalities
- course type: on site course
- curriculum for connected courses

The Concept gives a quick overview. A first version should be available in a few weeks.
We are interested in your comments and invite you to participate.
