The Microsoft Learning Gateway is a scalable framework with a range of Microsoft products designed to help universities reach their full potential by streamlining administrative processes, offering self-paced, online learning opportunities. It enhances collaboration among students and faculty through online communities, and provides services such as class registration and analytics from a single point of entry through a Web browser.

The Microsoft Learning Suite combines familiar applications with new software that not only helps teachers organise, schedule, and set exciting and stimulating lessons while meeting the needs of the curriculum, but also helps students get more out of education. As well as providing them with easy-to-use, powerful desktop tools, Learning Suite supports teamwork, and encourages learners to discover and research individually, or in groups.

The Microsoft Learning Network Manager
Learning Network Manager offers a new standard way for universities to set up and configure computer labs, reducing support, and training requirements. The product provides a controllable infrastructure that can be customised to meet institution needs, or build on existing investments.

Learning Network Manager is designed to meet the complex requirements of geographically dispersed educational networks, making it ideal for Europe, Middle East and Africa – where infrastructures and facilities vary greatly between developed and emerging markets. Learning Network Manager is designed to meet the demands of any education institution.

Transform Your University with Anytime, Anywhere Learning
AAL (part of the Microsoft Learning Gateway) makes it easy for students to learn and teachers to teach—independent of location or time of day. Through partnership with Microsoft, universities are using technology to optimise the educational experience for all students, teachers, and school administrators. AAL helps educational institutions provide one-to-one access to technology through the use of laptops and TabletPCs. Schools in Belgium, Germany, South Africa, and the United Kingdom have established programs or pilots.
