English UK announces new contract with Macmillan English Campus
Friday, June 13th, 2008
English UK is delighted to announce the signature of an agreement with Macmillan English Campus, Macmillan’s online blended learning programme. This will allow all its members to benefit from this extensive resource, which is designed to be used as an online complement to face-to-face teaching.
The Macmillan English Campus is the world’s leading online service for blended learning; it comprises more than 3,500 individual exercises and a content management system containing a range of different features, including an automatic mark book, online dictionary and book-marking facilities.
The usual model under which Campus operates means an individual language school has to commit to a minimum number of passwords in order to benefit from the service. This new agreement significantly reduces the number of individual passwords that any single English UK member needs to buy, meaning that medium-sized and smaller schools have the chance to benefit from this blended learning solution in a way that would not previously have been possible.
John Murray, Sales and Marketing Director for Macmillan English Campus said ‘We’re delighted to be working more closely with English UK, and to helping English UK members introduce blended learning solutions to their customers.’
Mark Rendell, Deputy Chief Executive of English UK said ‘We’re always looking to expand the services we offer to our members, and this new agreement shows one of the benefits of being part of a consortium in this way: improving accessibility for individual members.’
