First timers to elearning can become overwhelmed with the vast array of options available to them.
When you first start investigating e-learning, you will hear terms like LMS, Scorm and custom content. But don’t despair as it is not as complex as it sounds.
The following is a helpful guide to implementing an effective elearning strategy which will achieve the outcomes you desire.
1. Ask yourself, will your students be able to find and sign up for courses easily? How intuitive is the functionality? How personalised is the experience?
2. Ensure the quality of the technical services of the LMS company. Embarking on such a project without the help of quality, timely technical support can cause a project to fail.
3. Make a list of all features that are critical as well as those that would be nice to have. Make sure you understand why there is such a difference in pricing, and don’t pay for features you don’t need.
4. Does the LMS plug and play nicely with compliant online learning courses?
5. What type of training is offered to your Administrators and IT support group? Is the LMS user friendly?
6. Identifying technical requirements in the decision phase will save you hours of frustration down the road.
7. Focus on the process from the learners’ perspective. Is the access process seamless, or will they have to log in multiple times?
Following these steps will help you choose and implement a Learning Management System that suits your needs.
