Mahara Description
Mahara serves as a powerful tool for building portfolios within your educational community, enabling both students and staff to craft their unique learning narratives by uploading evidence of their various activities while also incorporating publicly available content they have previously shared online. Participants can articulate reflections that contextualize this evidence, align it with competency standards or registration prerequisites, and enrich the overall narrative. The versatility of Mahara allows for an array of portfolio applications, including academic pursuits, professional growth, integrated work experiences, evaluations, presentations, and enhancing employability. Users have the flexibility to share their portfolios with individuals, specific groups, or even the entire internet, and can impose additional access restrictions based on time frames or specific assessment tasks. Furthermore, Mahara facilitates commenting and feedback, fostering a collaborative learning environment, and portfolios can be conveniently submitted to learning management systems through LTI for evaluation purposes. This multifaceted approach not only enhances the learning experience but also encourages active participation and reflection among users.

Acuity PPM
Acuity PPM provides Project Management Teams (PMO's) with lightweight and easy-to-use software to manage the project portfolio. Acuity PPM provides a Work Intake module to support demand management and helps you create and evaluate new project requests through prioritization, financial planning and resource management (capacity planning).
Once a request is approved, project teams can track project progress with centralized status reports, track key milestones, risks, issues, financial plans, decisions, lessons learned, project and portfolio roadmaps, and resource plans in Acuity PPM. This helps leadership teams select the right projects for the organization.
Connect to common Project Management tools such as Jira, Smartsheet, Asana, Wrike, Monday.com, and others.
PMO's don't need complicated and cumbersome software, which is too complex for most users to use. Our modular approach allows PMO's to add functionality as they need it, since most Project Management Offices are at maturity level 1 or 2. This allows you to pay only for what you use and not for what you don’t. That's fair.
