We’ve launched an open e-learning Platform (KEP) [https://e-learning.co.ke] which leverages on ILIAS core web development technologies and components including HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, MySQL and backend frameworks like Ruby on Rails, Django, or Laravel. Additionally, the platform has utilized a learning management system (LMS) framework and existing ILIAS e-learning platform for customization.
As an open-source web-based learning management system, ILIAS supports learning content management and tools for collaboration, communication, evaluation as well as assessment. The software is published under the GNU General Public License and can be run on any server that supports PHP and MySQL. As well, ILIAS is open and free-of-charge and any individual or learning institution just need to register and start using the platform immediately. KEP platform’s storage capacity is unlimited, thus you can upload as many training materials as possible. Anytime.
