edX® Inc - Completion API

A corporate client hired OpenCraft to develop the Open edX® platform's Completion API, which provides the often-requested ability to track a learner's progress through each course by marking learning units as complete. Along with visual indicators developed by edX, this feature helps learners keep track of their progress and allows them to resume their course at the last unit they completed. The Completion API was introduced in the Hawthorn version of the Open edX platform.

Corporate Academy - Highly customized Open edX® platform

OpenCraft was put in charge of deploying, customizing, and maintaining a large-scale Corporate Academy based on the Open edX platform to deliver online training programs for a worldwide management consulting firm. We implemented several supplemental features on the Academy such as Single Sign-On, Insight analytics, and Mobile Apps. We were also given the task of developing several new features for the platform, resulting in the development of the Chat XBlock, which allows learners to chat with a robot acting as a teacher's assistant on their mobile phones while in the platform. Finally, we provided the staff with consulting on course authoring with Studio.

Cloudera - Open edX® instance

Cloudera is a Silicon Valley company that provides open source-based analytics software and training to data-driven enterprises. OpenCraft was tasked with the deployment, hosting, and maintenance of Cloudera OnDemand, a learning platform based on the Open edX platform. The platform offers specialized courses for developers, analysts, administrators, and aspiring data scientists. OpenCraft also deployed the Open edX Analytics API on the platform as well as Single Sign-On and the iOS mobile app, along with other customization and integration work.
