Our Story
Our mission, Improving Lives through the Power of Knowledge, is not simply the reason we are all excited to go to work at DigitalChalk every day, it is the root of why our company was founded and we are proud to have been delivering on that mission for nearly 20 years!
Founded in 2007, the DigitalChalk platform represented the culmination of a vision set in 2001 by a group of Christian scholars and leaders who wanted to provide higher education to those who were searching for the Hebraic foundations of their faith. In 2002, this group formed the Hebraic Heritage Christian School of Theology (HHC).
HHC needed a delivery system that would make their course materials available online so students from around the world could work at their own pace and in their own time zones. At that time, an online learning management system (LMS) was essentially unheard of and was uncharted territory. Thus, the major challenge that faced this new team was how to develop an online learning system for educational content development, deployment, and delivery.
As the ideas for the system coalesced, DigitalChalk was formed to help fulfill the vision which became operational on January 1, 2007. HCC was DigitalChalk’s first customer and we are proud to have them on our platform, still today.
From its inception, HCC and DigitalChalk were intensely focused on designing and delivering a student-centered learning system that was available at any moment to a global market. As one of Amazon Web Services (AWS) first customers, we beta-tested AWS’s platform while we developed and implemented a revolutionary new educational philosophy that is founded on ancient principles for the instilling of knowledge, understanding, and wisdom.
Beginning with the premise that the burden of responsibility for the transfer of knowledge rests on teachers and administrators, not on students, we were determined to take the educational process beyond the constraints of time and space which had historically restricted access to advanced knowledge.
Our learner-focused platform provides higher dimensions in education, taking the process beyond the limitations of traditional classroom space and beyond the restrictions of traditional classroom time. And, provides development, deployment, and delivery of educational content.
DigitalChalk is an award-winning LMS provider bringing unparalleled experience and expertise to the forefront of the eLearning landscape. We redefine learning solutions by seamlessly blending a robust, easy-to-use platform with world-class support to revolutionize your learning journey.
