The itslearning LMS was created by a group of students at Bergen University College in 1998 as a project on the topic of "virtual classrooms".34 A council of educators inquired about the platform's feasibility, and once awarded a grant by the College, itslearning was established the following year. Bergen University College became the system's first user.56 The company was first established as "it:solutions".7
In 2004, Arne Bergby became CEO of itslearning.8 An American office was opened in 2009 in Massachusetts.9 itslearning acquired SkoleIntra in 201310 and Fronter in 2015.11 In 2014, 40% of the company was sold to the Swedish private equity fund EQT.
