Why exporting content

The SELEAC portal does not replace your own learning environment …

• Creation of customised courses• Individual control of access rights• Definition of user roles• Tracking of learner activity• Additional functionalities – chat, bulletin board, helpdesk …

But it can act as a learning content management system and deliver high quality learning material
