Developing Top Quality LMS Software

We are now living in a world where in-person connectivity is decreasing while students choose to study from home or while at work. In addition, organizations are finding it more profitable to provide learning and development to their existing employees in any free time they have left at work, as this will add skill sets that they will not have to pay any additional employee benefits for. Notably, some highly expensive skill sets such as Project Management, Cloud Computing, Blockchain, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Data Analytics are among the much sought-after online training courses for employee development.

What is LMS?

LMS or Learning Management System is a software application that allows learners to learn new skillsets or knowledge online through the internet through structured and interactive methodologies. The software may include only self-study courses or have a combination of self-study and online instructor-led course material. In addition to these, LMS software help keep track of the learning and development of each individual learner and their details, as well as that of instructors. A detailed online catalog (with an advanced filtering system) of courses with information about their content helps trainers and learners select the course they need more easily and efficiently. Today LMS software also include additional features such as learner attendance, certificates, assignment submission, rewards systems and gamification.

What is LMS Development

LMS Development is the software development of a Learning Management System which is used for e-learning functions, administrative functions, analysis, reports, data collection, and more related to education and training in an organization. Today in an environment where distance learning and remote work is part of life, LMS development has become a key factor for many top companies.

Benefits of LMS Software to Employers

1. Add New Skills to Workforce:

LMS software allow employees to learn key new skills that the organization needs without having to spend separately for course fees for employee training offline or hiring costs and salaries for new employees who already have these skills.

2. Save Money on Employee Training

Developing LMS software is usually a one-time large cost, after which there may be smaller costs such as server charges, licensing, and salaries for a few employees to manage the LMS software. However, considering the accumulated costs for either paying for external training, for the different internal trainers or even hiring new employees with additional skillsets; the cost-savings are extremely high.

3. Keep track of existing and new skills that your current employees have

LMS Software provides employees with a way to learn new skills online internally and certifying them allows you to keep track of the new skills your employees have and leave you better placed to utilize them as needed.

4. Managing Essential Training

LMS software provide a recordable way to ensure that all essential learnings related to your work have been completed by your employees. Examples of such learning could be courses on Compliance, workplace harassment, social engineering, and change management. LMS records can also be used to prove to state officials that specific periodic regulatory training programs were completed by employees successfully.

5. Promoting Growth Mindsets within the Organization

Employees with growth mindsets will be eager to learn new things and improve existing processes. They will be open to new technologies, new businesses, and new trends. They challenge themselves and others to improve. In other words, an employee with a growth mindset can be almost four times as profitable as one without. This is why organizations worldwide promote and push employees to have growth mindsets. Having interactive LMS software on hand for your employees, especially if one with a rewards system, makes them more eager to learn and improve themselves even in their free time – hence increasing the growth mindset as a habit.

CLIENT CASE STUDIES:

1. SASIP Institute came to us when COVID was at the peak. Their students were unable to come for classes due to the government restrictions and the students were being impacted heavily. As a responsible educational institution and one of the largest tutoring institutes in the country, they were willing to fund a huge customized LMS Software, as long as it was done on high priority. We already had our core LMS software ready by then and had already rolled customized versions out to several other institutes and companies which were in the same situation, though none of them were as large as SASIP with their tens of thousands of students. Due to the size of this client there were many competitors, including some famous names such as Dialog. SASIP conducted a technical test to select their partner. It was a load test as this was a critical challenge for them. On going through the test only Era LMS performed well completely stably, despite the heavy loads. All other competitor LMS versions crashed and burned, losing the opportunity. We completed their LMS customizations fully within a couple of months and spent more time ironing out any bugs. The software had many frills such as Online and In Class Attendance Tracking, Parent Oversight profiles, etc. The client has been extremely satisfied with the system and requested we also build them an Era LMS Mobile App to accompany the platform.

The Era LMS software has been tried and tested by corporate organizations and educational institutions in Sri Lanka and internationally. Let's start the conversation to develop the most compelling, engaging and enjoyable LMS for your learners.
