Getting Business Results from a Learning Management System

The LMS 101 Presentation covers a brief history of how Learning Management Systems have evolved from a combination of Training Management Systems (TMS) and Computer Managed Instruction (CMI). It touches on topics such as standards like SCORM and how they play a role in content deployment. Part of this the presentation goes through definitions of commonly used but often misunderstood terms. The majority of the presentation covers the reasons for using an LMS, what is important in selecting an LMS and what types of results you can expect from implementing an LMS. We developed this presentation to give people who are new to this industry or unfamiliar with LMS technology a good general understanding of what an LMS is for. Most attendees have been either in the process of selecting an LMS or have recently acquired an LMS and are trying to determine how best to use it.
