This allows both the user and administrators to use for their training a single system, easily and transparently.
THE Virtual Classroom has been effectively incorporated into the LMS system through Il Virtual Class Connector, a kind of connection intermediate software totally compatible with Adobe Connect (but ready to handle others too virtual classroom systems other than Adobe Connect).
