MagicBox™ Partners – Key LMS Integrations
Although learning management systems ease the process of delivery of learning content, there is much more to selecting an LMS than just that. One of the essential questions to ask when choosing a digital content distribution platform is: how does it integrate with other LMSes? This is because an LMS that works in isolation fails to perform at its full potential.
MagicBox™ is a powerful learning and publishing platform that is committed to offering comprehensive educational tools that makes the journey much easier and more satisfying, not just for the students, but also publishers and educational institutions. So, whether it is the delivery of interactive and engaging content that can enhance academic outcomes, easing the administration and rostering process for schools or providing key analytics to ensure the most effective content, everything can be done through a single platform.
This is made possible through strategic partnerships to offer seamless integrations on MagicBox™, such that everything is streamlined onto a single platform, helping improve productivity and save time and costs. This also provides a greater depth of reporting, helping educational institutions and publishers enhance the educational experience.
