Spanning the entire western region of Nebraska, Chadron State College concentrates on online learning and wholly-online programs to ensure that geographically remote students have access to quality educational programs just like students who attend courses in the classroom. This student need, coupled with shrinking budgets, is key to understanding why Chadron made the strategic decision to transition to a new Learning Management System (LMS)-not once, but twice-in three years!

The college implemented rSmart's Sakai Collaboration and Learning Environment to address these challenges. Of course, success required gaining the support of faculty to complete a second LMS transition in a three-year period, and executing the transition flawlessly. As a result, the leaders of this process were able to achieve their goals to:
• Provide an exceptional educational experience to students across a broad rural area
• Ensure constant availability of systems that support distance learners
• Significantly reduce system costs

Join special guests, Steve Taylor and Lois Veath as they discuss Chadron State College's implementation and transition strategies to rSmart Sakai Collaboration and Learning Environment. Attendees will walk away from this interactive session with specific strategies for:
• Effective LMS transition processes
• LMS cost management and reduction
• Success in using the Sakai CLE for fully online programs

Presented by:
Steve Taylor, assistant vice president for extended campus programs, Chadron State College
Dr. Lois Veath, vice president of academic affairs, Chadron State College
