Entrada Community

• Queen's University, School of Medicine

  We began development of what-is-now Entrada in early 2004 with a simple mandate, to create a system where by our students could access all of their course related information and resources in one place. Once implemented in September of 2004, this system quickly became a core resource used day-to-day by not only our students, but also our administrative staff and even faculty. Our users (i.e. students, faculty and staff) now enjoy the benefits of on-demand course content and community building tools, while continuing to provide us with valuable feedback and direction to further develop this tool in conjunction with the University of Calgary, and others in the future.

• University of Calgary, Undergraduate Medical Education

  In 2008, our school identified the need for a new learning management system. Existing products on the market did not meet the customized needs of an Undergraduate Medical Education program. The Entrada project was easy to install, set-up, and customize to our needs. Our users loved the new system! One year into using the system, we have zero complaints, zero help desk needs, and very happy users. We've been able to create and install new modules customized to our program's specific needs, and meet LCME accreditation curricular tracking requirements. Sharing programming tasks across schools has made creating and adopting new features very easy and we've been able to accomplish more as a larger group than we could on our own. We are delighted to be a part of Entrada.

• University of Calgary, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine

  Our school opened in Sept 2008, and in our search for a learning management system, we were keen to find one that met the unique needs of our school. After reviewing many systems, our committee decided upon Entrada.
