SYSTEMS MISSION

Build the Infrastructure Behind Learning.

Build a connected, modular and resilient digital architecture where learning, identity, data, platforms, people and services can work together.

One Connected Architecture

The Systems Portal provides the conceptual architecture for connecting identity, learning, platforms, data, security, integrations and operational capabilities across the E-Learning Network.


Explore Architecture

Modular

Build systems as reusable capabilities rather than isolated applications.

Connected

Enable services and platforms to communicate through defined interfaces.

Secure

Treat identity, access, privacy and security as architectural concerns.

Resilient

Design systems to adapt, recover and continue supporting learning.

SYSTEMS DOMAINS

Six Layers of a Connected Network.

A systems architecture can organize capabilities into clear domains while allowing them to evolve independently.

FOUNDATION

Architecture

The structural blueprint connecting systems, services, platforms, data and users.

SYSTEMS

Core Systems

Foundational digital capabilities supporting identity, access, learning and network services.

PLATFORMS

Platforms

Specialized platforms supporting learning, administration, community, careers and services.

CONNECTIVITY

Integrations

Interfaces and service connections that allow systems to exchange information and capabilities.

KNOWLEDGE

Data

Responsible data architecture supporting records, analytics, learning and institutional intelligence.

TRUST

Security

Security architecture supporting identity protection, access control, privacy and resilience.

SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE

From Foundation to Experience.

A layered model helps separate foundational services from platform capabilities and user-facing experiences.

LAYER 05 Experience — learners, educators, institutions, professionals, communities and partners.
LAYER 04 Network Applications — academic, career, community, information, impact and specialized portals.
LAYER 03 Platform Services — learning management, administration, analytics, collaboration and content services.
LAYER 02 Core Services — identity, access, directory, credentials, records, communication and shared capabilities.
LAYER 01 Infrastructure Foundation — hosting, databases, networking, security controls, storage and system runtime.
DIGITAL SERVICES

Reusable Capabilities.

Services are designed as capabilities that can support multiple applications and portals rather than duplicating the same function everywhere.

Identity Services

Identity, authentication, account and credential capabilities.

Learning Services

Learning, enrollment, academic records and educational experiences.

Community Services

Community, collaboration, communication and participation services.

Analytics Services

Data, reporting, measurement and institutional intelligence capabilities.

Trust Services

Verification, credentials, secure records and trust-oriented capabilities.

Operational Services

Workflows, requests, resources, logistics and operational coordination.

INTEGRATION MODEL

Systems That Work Together.

A conceptual integration flow for connecting services while maintaining clear boundaries between systems.

01 Identity
02 Access
03 Service
04 Data
05 Experience
SECURITY ARCHITECTURE

Trust at Every Layer.

Security should be considered throughout system design, access, data handling, operations and recovery.

Identity

Strong identity and account protection.

Access

Controlled access based on appropriate permissions.

Data

Responsible handling and protection of information.

Resilience

Recovery and continuity planning for critical services.

BUILD THE NETWORK

Architecture for a Connected Future.

Systems should not exist as isolated islands. They should form a coherent ecosystem where services can evolve while remaining connected.
