Which LMS do you use and why?
I work for a healthcare organization, and we use NetLearning by Cengage. We've used it since 2005. We can use Articulate with it. However, if we choose to use Quizmaker, the only thing that gets recorded in our LMS is Pass/Fail. Why do we use NetLearning? It was what was available in 2005 for healthcare organizations. It was the LMS/e-learning first system our company ever used. It's not bad - does have limitations, but they all do.
We're looking to move to Halogen systems or another LMS. Why - our corporation wants to move some HR functions, such as performance review, to an electronic format. We, Education, are looking for a better way to electronically "do" inital and ongoing competencies. Our current electronic competency system leaves A LOT to be desired! By combining our, HR and Education's, efforts, we will be able to do more with our LMS - such as education being automatically assinged based on an employee's job position or based on their performance review. In reviewing LMS for this more, it is a give-and-take game. Each system is not the same - what does your organization want to do with their LMS? What do they NEED to do? What governing / accreditaiton bodies might need reports from your LMS? Take your time in evaluating the options.
Best of luck!
