A learning management system, or LMS, is a platform or software application designed to deliver, administer, track, and manage educational courses and training programs. Think of an LMS as a hub where instructors can post instructions or educational content that all students within the system can access remotely. Due to their wide range of applications, learning management systems are used globally to streamline the learning and training process. In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic presented a new set of challenges for corporations and institutes due to lockdowns, leading to the widespread adoption of learning management systems.
Learners have the freedom to interact with course materials according to their own schedules and pace, fostering increased flexibility in their learning journey. This anytime access to content proves especially advantageous for working professionals or those with demanding schedules.
Adopting an LMS can lead to significant cost savings when compared to traditional classroom-based training. By removing the necessity for physical classroom facilities, printed materials, and travel expenses, it presents a more financially efficient alternative for organizations.
Learning Management Systems allow students to access all their educational material, documents, and certificates from anywhere they have access to the internet. This is especially useful for companies that have employees in many different locations.
Employers can log in and track the progress of their employees, assess their performance through quizzes and exams, and get valuable insights into learner behavior. Employers can also access other information such as the expiration date of the courses or training and can take decisive actions.
Employers can set up a business account with OSHA Training School, the business account comes with the Learning Management System and its complete features:
1. Purchase Courses and Training: Under the company account employers can make a bulk purchase and assign the training to the learners in the future. This makes them eligible for bulk discounts. These courses do not expire unless assigned to a student.
2. Create Learner Profiles: The learning management system allows employers to create a learner profile that they can customize specific to learner’s needs. You can select the address where you would like for the student’s OSHA cards to be mailed out (limited to certain courses) e.g. work address or learner’s home address.
3. Check Progress: You can check and analyze learner’s performance and progress, assign completion dates view the course completion score.
4. Print Certificates: You can access and print off learner’s course completion certificates. Employers can run reports to see how many people were certified in a calendar year. These certificates can be accessed anytime and are stored on the LMS indefinitely.
5. Employee Information: All employee information is stored on the LMS and never expires.
Learning Management Systems have revolutionized education and training, serving as the backbone of e-learning. They have become indispensable tools for educators, learners, and organizations, enabling individuals to pursue continuous learning and professional growth regardless of their location or schedule. As we advance into the digital era, LMSs persistently evolve, propelling innovation, efficiency, and accessibility within global learning environments.
