What is a Learning Content Management System (LCMS)?

An LCMS enables organisations to manage the costs and effectiveness of their training and provide consistent communications irrespective of the location of the trainees. Training does not have to be tied to the classroom, so people can learn when they want, where they want and at a pace that suits them. So, its the ideal cost-effective solution for organisations who wish to invest in training as a key business improvement tool or, for organisations with a high staff turnover rate. In addition, organisations can provide a wide variety of learning solutions that cover areas such as induction, legislation, compliance, processes and change. Communication and collaboration tools enhance the learning experience allowing individuals to learn from others. Learning progress and achievement records support individuals in gaining advancement and provide demonstrable evidence of Continuous Professional Development (CPD).

For me an LCMS has reduced induction times by allowing new recruits to undertake learning, previously covered in the classroom, prior to joining the firm they hit the ground running!
