Open Options Launches Online Learning Platform 

Open Options
August 6, 2019

Open Options, a leading provider of access control solutions, launched a new Learning Management System (LMS), “ConnectEd”, for integrators, installers and system users to easily obtain certification in DNA Fusion.   

The ConnectEd platform will be a new tool for Open Options customers to view course calendars and class status as well as register for upcoming classes. The Open Options training team currently offers classroom learning at their headquarters, on-site training, regional classes, and web-based training through WebEx.   

“We are extremely excited to introduce this program to our partners,” said Open Options’ Director of Training and Education Services Sherinda Barrow. “The new ConnectEd portal extends our education efforts and introduces another level of connection and benefits to educate our loyal community.”  

As the new online learning center expands, customers of Open Options will have access to a wide variety of learning opportunities through the ConnectEd partner portal, including distance learning. Customers can enroll in scheduled classroom instruction, quarterly webinars, regional trainings, and/or live training events. It’s access that connects to high-quality training. 

“Our primary objective with this new LMS platform is to offer all our customers the ability to easily access educational courses”, said Benjamin Vestal, vice president, sales and business development at Open Options. “All potential customers of DNA Fusion will be able to access our experts and high-quality educational content irrespective of their location at anytime, anywhere.”
