The Connected Learning Solution, a product
suite that integrates all major campus technologies, enables
colleges and universities to implement enhanced teaching
and learning models. The Connected Learning Solution provides
access to personalized information, online courses and
other e-learning resources, administrative services, community

| Lessons Learned |
- A project champion does not a program make
- Clearly define objective: product vs. feature vs.
function
- Must be tightly aligned with company’s strategic
initiatives and business goals
