Blackboard Inc. Completes Merger With WebCT
It's official. Blackboard <http://www.blackboard.com/> and WebCT
<http://www.webct.com/> are one as of today -- ahead of the previously
announced schedule, I might add. From the press release
<http://www.blackboard.com/company/press/release.aspx?id=823450> :
The combination of Blackboard and WebCT establishes one of the most
innovative global software companies serving the education industry.
Currently, more than 3,700 world-wide higher education, K-12, corporate,
government and commercial academic institutions enhance their learning
environments with solutions offered by the two organizations. The
transaction brings together two of the industry's premier software
brands and most widely used technologies for creating, managing and
delivering course content and materials online.
Welcome to all our new colleagues joining from WebCT! It's an exciting
time!
