About Infopeople Online Learning
Infopeople offers a number of courses via the web. These online learning courses are taught by experienced Infopeople trainers and provide the same kind and quality of instruction as "on-ground" Infopeople training. Web-based courses are asynchronous, enabling students to work them into many varied personal schedules.
Infopeople online learning courses are structured in a modular fashion and require students to log on at least once a week to complete the coursework. Each module should take approximately two and 1/2 to four hours to complete. Most courses consist of four modules.
Online learning courses are so designated in the A-Z listing of Infopeople workshops. They are announced in the same way as other offerings, and registration is via the Infopeople online registration system.
The particular online learning product that Infopeople uses is called Angel. The address for the Infopeople online learning server is http://elearn.infopeople.org/; after you register for a course, you will receive via email a user name and password and instructions for logging in to the Angel course.
Please note: the following are minimum system requirements for using Angel. You will need access to a computer that has at least these specifications to participate in an online course. If you have any questions about these requirements, please email Eileen O'Shea at eileen@infopeople.org for more infomation.
- Windows:
- Internet Explorer 6.0 and above, Netscape 7.1 and above, Firefox
- Macintosh
- Mozilla 1.4 and above which is the same engine as Netscape 7.1, Safari 2.0 and above, Firefox
- OS X and above (OS 9 will NOT work with Angel as there is no browser available for OS 9 compatible with Angel)
