## History

Udutu's LMS and Course Authoring Tool were developed out of a Royal Roads University (RRU) initiative started in 1995.[2] At that time, RRU was a newly established university with a mandate to grow its course offerings and student population, but with limited financial and capital resources to do so. In order to grow, RRU focused on developing software tools that could deliver coursework online.

Udutu was spun off from Royal Roads in 2007.[3]
