“In our virtual classroom environments, professors can schedule courses with preloaded profiles, applications and data. In addition, professors can gain full control over a student’s desktop to address questions and apply hands-on remote help when needed,” said Olivier Wolff, CEO of SimpleCloud and a media and entertainment veteran most recently from Warner Brothers. “SimpleCloud is truly changing the way schools can quickly keep their labs and classrooms operational, in the cloud, remote from anywhere and able to scale with registration.”
The famous ArtCenter University in Pasadena, California have already brought classrooms, labs, professional training and internship programs online this Spring when the pandemic first hit the world: “With SimpleCloud we have been able to ensure continuity of our key classes in game design and art, despite the school being closed.
