LMS
A Learning Management System (LMS) is software that enables you to create, store, manage, and deliver educational content to those in your organization. It features a “top-down” approach to learning, where the learner works at their own pace but on a set path designed by one or several administrators. LMS has a wide array of uses and benefits, depending on your organizational needs or objectives. Still, companies generally use them for onboarding, employee training, upskilling and streamlined delivery of content. An LMS can be hugely beneficial in terms of rendering training more efficient and accessible as well as reducing costs and delivery times. Examples of LMS are CanopyLAB, Docebo, and SmartSparrow.
