Realizing that the Center and our partner organizations had outgrown our current website to host training materials, we’ve spent the last six months looking at alternatives. Early on, we realized that what we and our partners like you need is a learning management system (LMS). In addition to the functions of transit training network, an LMS will give us the ability to:
- Directly administer eLearning courses
- Track course progress, assessment scores, etc. by user
- Hide assessments from some user levels (not possible on TTN)
- Integrate with social learning
- Run reports on course completion, assessment results, downloads, etc.
After looking at countless LMS platforms, we’ve decided that Totara Learn is the best fit for us. The configuration variations are almost limitless and the group we’re working with on implementation, Learning Pool, has proven to be responsive and problem solving!
We’ve just started the implementation process and are now working to identify the best name for the new platform.
We’d appreciate if you could take a moment to give your input.
