The timeline for the design through implementation stages — from proof of concept through the pilot and MVP cycle — was completed within nine months. With a need for constant modification in their online courses, the Open edX platform offered this flexibility, completely under their control.
I’ve had the absolute pleasure of getting to work with IBL during our implementation of Open edX. My experience with IBL has been mostly with xBlocks. Whenever we have an issue with anything, they are always available to talk with us on the developer forum and get back to us in a very timely manner. I definitely recommend working with IBL. — Chris Schunke, Manager of Multimedia Development at Global Knowledge
“Working with IBL has proven to be extremely successful. They’ve been such a collaborative partner for us, bringing great experience to us, and being extremely responsive. They also have great connections within the marketplace.” -Michelle Lockard, Director of Product at Global Knowledge
