Open Options is launching a new learning management solution to help its customers obtain certifications to the company’s distributed network architecture software.

Open Options is introducing a ConnectEd, a new learning management system to help the company’s users obtain certifications for DNA Fusion. Through the LMS platform, Open Options customers will be able to view course calendars and class status and register for classes.

The LMS solution is designed to complement the Open Options trainings that are currently offered at the company’s headquarters, onsite, regional classes and online through WebEx. DNA Fusion is the company’s software that is designed to provide another option for access control through a distributed network architecture.

“Our primary objective with this new LMS platform is to offer all our customers the ability to easily access educational courses”, says Benjamin Vestal, vice president of sales and business development at Open Options. “All potential customers of DNA Fusion will be able to access our experts and high-quality educational content irrespective of their location at any time, anywhere.”
