Learning Library Introduces Custom Course Option

As of March 1, 2009, institutional and commercial groups with active accounts on the AALAS Learning Library will be able to take advantage of a great service: the custom course hosting option. The option to create up to 5 customized courses for your group will now be included with your fee for your group accounts.

The custom course hosting option allows you to either create new courses or adapt courses on regulatory mandates from a list of AALAS Learning Library courses. You can edit pages, add or delete pages or lessons, change images, and edit questions using our authoring utility. This allows you to add information about policies or procedures that may be specific to your institution and make the course a more valuable learning tool for your group.

This service is available to all institutional groups who purchase accounts on the AALAS Learning Library. The new pricing for the custom course hosting is as follows:

• 1-5 custom courses: No additional charge
• 6-15 custom courses: $500 for AALAS institutional or commercial members/$1000 nonmembers
• 16-50 custom courses: $1000 for AALAS institutional or commercial members/$1500 nonmembers

To take advantage of this option, the group coordinator can select the custom courses option when you renew. If you already have an active subscription for your group, the group coordinator can log in and select the option under Purchase for Data Services and then select Purchase Data Services.

The group coordinator can log in and select the option under Purchase for Data Services and then select Purchase Data Services. (The purchase of custom courses in the range of 1-5 courses costs $0.) If you have any questions about this new option, please contact onlinelearning@aalas.org.
