HowToMoodle to Speak at informatology Conference

London (UK), April 2009 - Ray Lawrence of HowToMoodle will run workshops in the open-source learning-management system Moodle at the 2009 informatology Learning Conference held in London, 23-25 June 2009. Keynote speakers include Sir John Whitmore, pioneer of executive coaching; the BBC's online and informal learning manager, Nick Shackleton-Jones; and Jane Hart social media and learning consultant.




Designed for learning and development managers, the conference offers a stream dedicated to learning strategies. Another stream, on learning technologies, will cover topics such as online learning communities, blended learning and global eLearning.

Ray says, "I'm delighted to be offering workshops at the conference for newcomers to Moodle. Our consultancy and training clients range from charities and educational organisations to large corporates. Businesses are increasingly striving to provide training in a way that better suits their staff working patterns and in a cost effective manner. informatology's attendees will find Moodle of great interest."

HowToMoodle provides consultancy, training and technical solutions for users of Moodle and has just launched new ebooks: the Course Creator Reference Manual and Administrator Reference Manual.

Delegates from government bodies, education, corporates and work-based learning environments are invited to attend the conference. Last year organisations such as Bupa, Department for Transport, Surrey County Council and Visa were represented amongst the attendees.
