EDU 2.0 is a simple, powerful e-learning platform.
EDU 2.0 is a modern, easy-to-use cloud-hosted learning management system (LMS) that makes it simple to deliver online education. EDU 2.0 has a user interface similar to Facebook and includes many of its social features such as activity feeds and collaboration tools.
There are two versions of EDU 2.0:
EDU 2.0 for School is at http://www.edu20.org and targets schools and universities. EDU 2.0 for School offers a free plan and a premium plan for power users. It competes against academic LMS such as Blackboard, Moodle, Schoology, and Instructure.
EDU 2.0 for Business is at http://www.edu20.com and targets businesses that want to deliver instructor-led and self-paced online training. It is often used for internal corporate training, customer training, and online certification. It competes against corporate LMS such as Saba, Litmos, and Intellum.
In March 2012 the combined EDU 2.0 sites have 600,000 users and are growing by about 10,000 new users a week. Both companies are profitable and have never needed any investment.
In 2012 EDU 2.0 will expand to include features such as digital badges, learning plans, deep integration with open learning resources, informal social learning, and Kahn-Academy-style features.
