La búsqueda de un aliado tecnológico confiable
With Moodle Workplace, UCF was looking for a technology partner to provide comprehensive support and advice. The growing demand for courses and the need to manage an increasing number of students required a flexible and adaptable platform. Scalability became a critical factor in ensuring the continuity and success of UCF’s training programmes.
Navigation between challenges and solutions
The transition from Moodle LMS to Moodle Workplace has not been without its challenges. In the process, UCF encountered unexpected errors and an overwhelming administrative burden. These obstacles tested the organisation’s capacity for adaptation and resilience.
Despite the initial challenges, UCF is convinced that Moodle Workplace is the key to achieving its goals of excellence in learning. The platform provides the tools to efficiently manage growing users and courses while delivering a high-quality and personalised learning experience.
With Moodle Workplace as a strategic ally, UCF is ready to face the challenges of the future and continue to transform health and social care education in Catalonia. The organisation is confident that this new platform will drive innovation, collaboration and continued success in its mission to empower industry professionals.
A holistic approach to change with 3ipunt

The transition from Moodle LMS to Moodle Workplace, with the full support of Moodle Certified Premium Partner 3ipunt, marked a crucial milestone in this journey towards learning excellence.
UCF recognised the need for a reliable technology partner that could provide expert support and tailored solutions. 3ipunt was the ideal partner, bringing its extensive experience and knowledge of Moodle Workplace to help UCF with the transition.
The migration to Moodle Workplace has not been without its challenges. UCF encountered unexpected errors and an overwhelming administrative burden. However, thanks to the effective collaboration with 3ipunt, these obstacles were efficiently overcome.
