E-Learning Management system


Definition of E-learning Management System

A E-Learning Management System (LMS) is a software application for the administration, documentation, tracking, reporting and delivery of e-learning education courses or training programs.
Learning Management Systems range from systems for managing training and educational records to software for distributing online or blended/hybrid college courses over the Internet with features for online collaboration.
 Purpose
The key to understanding the difference between Learning Management Systems and other computer education terms is to understand the systemic nature of LMS. LMS is the framework that handles all aspects of the learning process. An LMS is the infrastructure that delivers and manages instructional content, identifies and assesses individual and organizational learning or training goals, tracks the progress towards meeting those goals, and collects and presents data for supervising the learning process of organization as a whole. An LMS delivers content but also handles registering for courses, course administration, skills gap analysis, tracking, and reporting.
Benefits
Improve learning program efficiency
Reduce learning and development costs
77% of global organizations plan on using social learning, yet only 33% have installed tools today, according to the Masie Center.
