Sakai development

Edia is familiar with the Sakai architecture and specializes in developing new Sakai features. We have developed a number of tools for Sakai, including the Sakai Skin Manager, Sakai Maps and the Sakai Webcourse Tool. We can assist organizations that want to use Sakai as their own internal eLearning platform. Also, we provide technical backup for businesses that develop sakai courses and services. Edia is a perfect partner for exploring, developing and implementing new and specific Sakai features.

All of the tools that we've developed for Sakai are on display on our demo sakai server: sakaitools.edia.nl. If you sign up for an account there you can try them yourself.
