7 Benefits of an LMS for Learners

With rising cost and competition, companies require a system which enables them to manage a large group of learners in a web-based environment. Learners which they can manage, track and report on. A Learning Management System does just that. Listed below are some of the benefits of an LMS for Learners: Keeping it Central

Resources can be made available from the one location

Learners can view and manage their account 24/7 Information Access

A student can learn at their own time

They can access the information from anywhere Communication

Learners can receive updated information from their trainers

They can collaborate with other Learners. Engaging Courses

Learners can enjoy interactive/engaging courses

Doing interesting quizzes and games to reinforce learning in a fun way Devices Galore

Learners on the run may be happy to do the course on a tablet or IPad

Saves times and allows for more Learners to enrol in courses Self- Enrolment

Some LMS systems allow for Learners to self-enrol and start the courses

Depending on the course subject, this means an extra revenue stream for the business as outsiders too can do the courses.

Increasing Technical Skills

Learners who are not very familiar with technical skills will become more confident as they are exposed to doing a course online, attempting multiple choice questions, answering text based questions, all online.

Feedback

Depending on the LMS set up, students may receive instant feedback once a task, quiz is completed and this allows them to monitor how they are progressing

Feedback can also be personalised and provide students with areas which they need to work on Certification

Some LMS’s have an automatic certificate generator once all tasks and assessments have been fulfilled by the student and verified by the trainer. With a click the learner can print out their certificate. Do note that these are generally for non-compliant courses.

There are many other benefits but the above are the main reasons that companies are now looking at a Learning Management system to complement their tradition tools of training and assessments. Resources:
