Learning Management System | Perth Branding

What is a learning management system?

A learning management system (LMS) is a software application for educational courses, training programs, or learning and development programs that are run online. The learning management system can be applied at an enterprise level. Originally, LMS concept was geared to the higher education sector, today LMS systems are predominantly used for the corporate system, to try and systematise the education and training of staff. Whilst the advent of the LMS seems fairly recent, the first introduction of the LMS was in the late 1990s. LMS systems are designed to assist organisations with the distribution of course material, as well as administration and etcetera.

Learning management systems were designed to identify training and learning gaps, particularly in the corporate sector. LMSs are focused on online learning delivery but support can be applied to a number of elements. An LMS may offer classroom management for instructor-led training or a series of videos that run through the training. Modern LMSs can be created for any purpose necessary.
