Tech-savvy employees are expecting greater interactivity in how learning is delivered; however, not all learning management systems support learning delivery methods like social collaborative learning and mobile learning.
Some industries have intense regulatory environments which require managing compliance and licensing requirements closely and accurately. Recertification dates aren’t the same for everyone.

Our Advice

Critical Insight

Deploying a Learning Management System (LMS) requires a thorough analysis of the real business requirement. Organizations can easily become distracted by the new features, which they really won’t use. It’s critical to not get distracted and buy more system than the organization needs.
Determining user requirements means looking at the system from four user perspectives: the learner, the administrator, the L&D team, and the management team.
The LMS marketplace is quickly becoming segmented. Organizations have lots of choice, but need to be clear on the features they’re looking for.

Choosing the right LMS for the organization can save time, money, and boost employee development.
Identify the features required by your users for successful LMS deployment.
