CirQlive's Media-Enhanced Education & Training Suite (MEETS) provides administrators with the ability to track system usage and understand overall usage of the platform. The Usage Statistics include reviewing which features are being used, and which aren't, details about past events and recordings, a view of the present state of active events, an overview of teachers and students usage and which platforms users are using. Utilizing these statistics can assist in improving the performance of online education and training being offered by your organization.
