Learn27: Taking Learning from Isolation to Collaboration

Redmond, WA, October 24, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Social27, industry’s favorite virtual events solution, recently announced the launch of Learn27; the easy, dynamic, and powerful eLearning solution. The Learn27 platform is loaded with an array of industry first features that are designed to drive the new era of social learning by combining social networking and collaboration with traditional eLearning. This redefined method of education is not only effective, but it’s easy to setup and scale.

From a teaching standpoint: Any organization can come in and create their Learning Academy, upload learning content (videos, documents, audio files etc.) and set up courses and classes. They can assign points and badges for completion and student recognition. The content can also be monetized by charging fees for the courses.

From a learning standpoint: Trainees / students can come and enroll in classes, watch videos-ask questions, provide feedback, take exams, and win points, certifications and badges. They use their rich and interactive profiles for social collaboration which enhances the learning experience exponentially.

“The goal of Learn27 is to empower organizations and institutions of all sizes to create a powerful social learning environment which seeks to harness the collective intelligence of everyone involved,” said Ike Singh Kehal, the CEO and co-founder of Social27.
