Abstract
As institutions continue to pursue and value online learning as a legitimate process to deliver courses and degrees to diverse student populations it becomes increasing important to consider professional development for faculty on using course management systems such as Moodle using training programs such as Moodle Academy. This study is an evaluation of Moodle Academy as applied to a community/technical college in North Carolina.
