Synergy ITC
Content Delivery and Management System
Synergy ITC is the content delivery and management system for Nola Education curriculum. It provides instructors with the tools needed to schedule students into curriculum content and manage their grades received in that content.
Synergy ITC also delivers content to students, including images, graphics, videos, and audio-based instruction. All of this is handled from the cloud.
Synergy ITC includes a secure login feature that ensures students work on individually assigned content and receive grades for only their work.
Synergy ITC is built upon a proprietary engine that leverages technologies such as PHP, MySQL, and JavaScript in a way that provides a consistent framework for development.
