OPEN AND INTERACTIVE E-LEARNING SYSTEM AND METHOD

A system and method are described that provide nearly universal and simple access by learners everywhere to content developed by authors everywhere to produce an e-learning marketplace. Content is stored and updated centrally and current content is distributed to local content servers via a content delivery network (CDN). A proprietary server enables interfaces and a loadable seed to a user server connected with one or more learning management systems (LMSs). Training managers subscribe to content, the author obtains payment, and the learners ‘attend’ one or more courses, the completion status and grade of which are reportable to the one or more LMSs. Security is provided as is interaction among various users of the invented e-learning system and method.
