The use of technology for learning has grown tremendously in the last decade. The need for continuous just-in-time training has made learning technology an indispensible part of life for workers. Learning technology is a type of system that provides educational services to students. Cloud Computing is perfectly placed to enable the learning technology providers to have an infrastructure that enables growth and at the same time save them considerable cost. Furthermore, it allows providers to deliver affordable solutions to universities along with the tools students require to maximise their time and their employability. Nowadays, we are living in a world of increased mobility where proliferation of mobile technologies is creating a host of new anytime and anywhere contexts. The emerging social media of Web 2.0 are more flexible, sociable and more visually attractive. We live and learn in a connected world. Schools, colleges and universities must change to adapt to these new needs and expectations. This highlights the need for innovative solutions in education and learning.
