Earlier this year I posted on MiCTA and their extensive RFP process that led to Desire2Learn winning ‘Endorsed‘ status for their members, and WebCT earning an ‘Approved‘ status. There was a third vendor that MiCTA was trying to negotiate a licensing arrangement with, Blackboard, but as MiCTA states on their site they were “not able to arrive at a contract that was beneficial to the MiCTA membership.”
Today came the announcement that the first of MiCTA’s members has taken advantage of the licencing terms that were brokered as part of that RFP process. Florida Distance Learning Consortium has chosen to go with D2L after their own extensive evaluation. – SWL
