Is your current <\/span>LMS<\/span><\/a><\/span> giving you nightmares? You say east and your LMS goes west? No matter how much you try, your <\/span>LMS<\/span><\/a><\/span> never justifies its presence in your organization. You keep racking your brains to get the best out of the fossil aged LMS, and it keeps enfeebling with every single passing day. And to make things worse, you\u2019re not even sure whether or not, your <\/span>LMS<\/span><\/a><\/span> is outdated. We\u2019d say, if your current <\/span>LMS<\/b> is gasping for breath, let it go\u2026 let it rest in peace and get over it as fast as you can. And to give you a little hope, let us tell you that you are not alone in the rigmarole, there are many out there in the same situation as you are. Hence, the write-up! \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

When there is No LMS\u2026 <\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n

We\u2019ve seen people in the Learning and Development (L&D) having petrifying experiences when dealing with <\/span>Learning Management Systems<\/span><\/a><\/span> (LMSs). Many of these experiences arise because the market is crowde\"Bestd with LMS vendors who are incapable of meeting the dynamic business needs of an organization. They provide poor implementation and pathetic post-purchase support, which results in both, the client and the company,\u00a0remaining dissatisfied. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

But no matter the hitches, the reality is that you can’t get learner data that is sorted, valuable and actionable without having a <\/span>learning management system<\/b> in place. There\u2019s simply no way around it! Why? Well, the reasons are plenty! First, let\u2019s give you the problems that\u2019d arise if there was no LMS in place. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Imagine the space and the IT infrastructure that\u2019d get spent in arranging classroom trainings for hundreds of learners at a single instance of time. And not to mention the managerial skills required by the training manager to get so many people in one place, at a single point of time. Besides, how about imagining the training manager running around with tons of papers and chunky training material binders? Doesn\u2019t sound very effective, is it? Hence, let’s admit it, organizations need an LMS! <\/span><\/p>\n

When your Current LMS is as Good as No LMS!\"Learning<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n

Like we mentioned earlier, if your current <\/span>LMS<\/span><\/a><\/span> is gasping and panting while carrying out the daily tasks, you\u00a0probably need to start looking out for a new one. If your traditional LMS is nothing more than a repository of boring courses, poorly crafted exams, long surveys and tiresome reports that make no sense, you probably need to be looking for a new one. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Again, if your LMS is complex, unimaginative\u2026 almost like a massive warehouse of mostly insufficient, clunky excel sheet reports, you need a new LMS. And if you are bearing with all these nuisances after spending thousands of dollars during implementation, but still have to use MS Excel to manifest your data into some decent understandable stuff, you really…. really need a new <\/span>LMS<\/b>!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The Next-Gen<\/b> LMS Experience<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n

Agreed, you need an <\/span>LMS<\/span><\/a><\/span>, but not just any <\/span>LMS<\/b>! You need an <\/span>elearning<\/span><\/a><\/span> platform that has a few basic things in place and a lot more. The LMS you opt for should atleast support integrations with major software portals. Besides, it should support social platforms, while having the <\/span>gamification<\/span><\/a><\/span> elements, robust <\/span>multi-tenant<\/span><\/a><\/span> infrastructure, <\/span>blended learning<\/span><\/a><\/span> mode and the ability to cater to digital learner of today on their choice of devices\u2026 i.e. it should support <\/span>mobile learning<\/span><\/a><\/span>. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The additional features that LMSs support include presence of interactive videos, ability to set up a professional storefront for <\/span>selling courses online<\/span><\/a><\/span>, ability to support offline learning while having a <\/span>course authoring tool<\/span><\/a><\/span> that helps convert all the course material into <\/span>SCORM<\/span><\/a><\/span> compliant content that the <\/span>LMS<\/b> can understand. So you see, you basically need a next-gen LMS that could dramatically improve your turnaround time from the time of training deployment to completion, taking all other associated metrics into consideration. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Features Next-Gen LMS Flaunts…<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n

Gamification\"gamification<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n

Gamification<\/span><\/a><\/span> expels \u2018boring\u2019 out and injects \u2018fun\u2019 in the learning process. This eventually boosts engagement\u00a0by making learning enjoyable whilst driving more participation. Gamified elements such as earning points, coins, badges, trophies, leaderboards etc., keep the learners motivated. The best part? Learners retain and remember more of what they\u2019ve learned and are less likely to abandon their training midway.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Social Learning<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n

It is see\"Socialn that a majority of everyday learning happens informally, i.e. socially vs. while sitting in a classroom. Hence, we designed an LMS that\u2019d blend informal training mode such as <\/span>social learning<\/span><\/a><\/span> with the e-training modules. As a result, the <\/span>LMS<\/b> allows the learners to undergo training via social media like <\/span>Facebook, Twitter, Wikis, etc., and collaboration tools such as RSS feeds, billboards, news, blogs, forums, chats and more.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Each of the clients will be able to access and view their own unique learning content and would not even realize they are in a <\/span>multi-tenant<\/span><\/a><\/span> LMS. You\u2019ll also experience quicker initial startups and unmatched performance and that too without impacting the performance of other customers on the same LMS. \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Blended Learning<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n
