Selecting, configuring, installing and implementing a Learning Management System is a process that can take many months, hundreds of man hours and thousands of dollars … and create many headaches. Cutting through the marketing hype and determining which of the 130+ systems to consider, let alone select, is daunting. Whether you are in the process of selecting your first LMS, or if you are looking to change to a different LMS, this symposium will provide you with astounding data and valuable insights to help you with this critical project.


This symposium will draw upon the research on the important aspects of LMSs based on the data from over 1,000 respondents. You will learn what a LMS can and can’t do for your organization as well as the key factors around selecting, installing, and configuring a LMS. You will gain an understanding of new trends and approaches to LMSs, including Moodle. You will learn why paying attention to the people is a critical success factor for any LMS project. And, you will gain valuable insights from the best practices from a wide variety of organizations.

  • The Evolution of the LMS
