[Building Sakai] Free Sakai VLE Event in Oxford on 9 December

[Adam Marshall]

Due to recent changes in the marketplace, many institutions have begun to review their VLE service provision and as a result there appears to be growing interest in the Sakai Collaborative Learning Environment.

The Sakai Foundation and SunGuard/rSmart would like to invite you to join colleagues from UK universities already using Sakai to find out more about their experiences, the future of Sakai, the Sakai community and support options. The workshop will be hosted by Oxford University Computing Services (OX2 0EX).

The event will run from 11am - 3pm on Thursday 9th December and will include presentations from:

 *   Ian Dolphin - Executive Director of the Sakai Foundation
 *   Hull University - the transition from BlackBoard to Sakai
 *   Oxford University - using and configuring Sakai
 *   Cambridge University - the future of Sakai: the Open Academic Environment
SunGard/RSmart  will also speak about their global support offering for Sakai. (See their announcement in September regarding Sakai http://www.sungard.com/pressreleases/2010/highered092810.aspx).

If you are interested in attending the day please contact Robert Sherratt (r.sherratt at hull.ac.uk). More details about the event will be circulated in early November.
