Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Ophthalmologists

Background

RANZCO, the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Ophthalmologists, is a leading medical college offering a 5-year training program for aspiring eye surgeons. With a bi-national presence across Australia and New Zealand, RANZCO's training program integrates hospital-based learning with supplementary online education.

Challenge

Outdated LMS Platform
Before partnering with eWorks, RANZCO faced challenges with outdated Moodle platforms, particularly around the structure and support needed for online learning and exams.

Limited Support
More support was required around the learning and teaching from an LMS provider.

Solution

There was a pressing need for a more robust learning management system (LMS).

RANZCO sought security and assurance in transitioning to a more dynamic LMS provider. The objective was to adopt an LMS with enhanced functionality for uploading assessments, tracking grades, and facilitating programmatic assessment, aligning with the evolving needs of medical education.

eWorks offered an LMS that enables RANZCO to provide an engaging online training program that is relevant and responsive to its needs.
