Moodlerooms, Inc., Moodle partner and provider of proven e-Learning solutions, reaffirms its dedication to global interoperability by offering its development expertise to ensure the Moodle 2.2 release, planned for December 2011, aligns with IMS standards. IMS Common Cartridge and Learning Tools Interoperability (LTI) standards allow users to integrate into their platforms more diverse content and assessment options, and increased flexibility around sharing, re-packaging and re-using lesson plans and other materials. The standards also provide for the secure, streamlined integration of web-based, content and tools, such as chat and domain-specific learning sites, at reduced costs.

"Global IMS Common Cartridge and LTI compliance is crucial for the sustainability and future of open source Learning Management Systems,” says Lou Pugliese, Moodlerooms Chairman and CEO. “Moodlerooms is committed to making sure the 45 million user open source Moodle community is empowered with tools to facilitate flexible interoperability with content and technology applications critical in providing effective learning outcomes. Maintaining the interoperability ensured by IMS standards compliance continues to be central to our company vision.”
