Abstract: In this case study review, attendees will learn how innovative technology was developed to support a first of its kind distance learning program launched in Quebec by the Ministry of Immigration and Cultural Communities to encourage potential immigrants to perfect their knowledge of the French language prior to arriving in Quebec and help to accelerate their access to the job market as well as facilitate their integration into their new home – a mandate for the Ministry. Marcel Messier will provide insight into how and best practices for implementing technology to create a tool that is one of the most significant innovations in online training in Canada to support distance learning programs with measureable success. Attendees will learn how the technology manages the educational activities attached to the Ministry’s programs which go beyond just language support.
