Client Testimonials

LectureMaker has been instrumental in helping us launch our eLearning Training Program here at RTI. Ron’s professionalism, creative ideas, and responsiveness has made working with him a real pleasure. We benefited from his guidance and working knowledge and I look forward to working with Ron as we prepare to add additional courses to our program in the near future. — Mark Hamilton, Consulting Manager, Real-Time Innovations

Ron Fredericks has a talent for figuring out services web-page users need (sometimes, well ahead of ‘the marketplace’) and implementing such services to high standards of quality. I participated in Ron’s debugging of his first e-commerce site and some other technology-based services he brought to market. In each case, I appreciated the care – for customers’ success and technological excellence – that he put into the work and products. — Dr. Thomas J. Buckholtz, former Co-CIO for the United States federal government’s Executive Branch

LectureMaker’s corporate MOOC (“Massive Open Online Course”) platform is impressive in that it encapsulates the entire course in one site (a one stop shop) and provides an opportunity to reuse data. You are working at the edge of a very exciting time in education – a time when education and business can truly engage. — Louise Hargreaves, Manager Institutional Research, Bond University

Description

LectureMaker’s video platform is built around its own streaming video service connected to a feature-rich video playback application. The cross-domain result is that video plays from your own web site with the streaming services located on any number of cloud platforms including LectureMaker’s own cloud.

LectureMaker’s video platform embeds content navigation into the video to give your users the best chance to be educated, persuaded, and entertained with your video content. You decide if your videos are public, restricted, or require payment to watch. LectureMaker’s video platform can collect the analytics and feedback you need to improve your products, services, courses, campaigns, and community engagements.

LectureMaker offers several software component plugins to extend the basic video distribution service for:

• Secure access,
• eLearning,
• Peer-2-peer expert knowledge portals,
• Vendor-client training,
• eCommerce income streams, and
• MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) reusable content for students and professionals.
