Description

Many new ANGEL higher education customers face the challenge of managing change when they convert from their previous course management system to the ANGEL LMS. Brookdale Community College managed their switch to ANGEL in an exemplary manner, proactively training faculty to ease the transition and encourage adoption.

Brookdale's efforts were well spent. In the two terms the college has used ANGEL:

• The number of courses using an LMS has increased 62%.
• The number of students using the LMS has increased from 3,000 at WebCT's peak to 7,000 in ANGEL in less than a year.
• 85% of full-time faculty have completed at least the introduction to ANGEL training.
