I'd like to learn what plugins to use and what I need to pay for vs. free options. I am a technical writer and not a programmer so the easier things are the better! My company doesn't have the budget for a paid LMS, and the programmers are too busy to help me with Moodle.<br><br>I will probably be using Captivate to generate the content.
