LMS

Learning Systems. Would you select an LMS? What about an LXP? Oh, maybe a combo of the two? Perhaps a learning platform that calls themselves whatever, has some functionality or more of an LMS, but won’t refer to them as that. Do you go with an Enterprise version? Customer Training/Education (aka legacy term as extended…

Chris Taylor. Chris plays for the Los Angeles Dodgers, my favorite baseball team (MLB). You might have someone similar who plays for your favorite soccer team (there are sites, that mention the worst), or cricket, or hockey or football, or tidily winks. Chris was once a good player. That was about two years ago. Nowadays…

The perfect learning management system. The best LMS for Enterprise. Top LMS for mid-market. Elite LMS for associations, non-profits, government, and even baristas. It’s hard to believe that some sectors, such as baristas, whiskey entities, or tennis, have a learning system, often an LMS. Specific to their industry. The content is for those sectors. The…

For those Gen Xers who remember the days of MTV, it sure had a lot of Hype. How many saw the debut song by the Buggles – on the first day of MTV launch (8-1-81)? Where were you on that fantastic day? I was babysitting – and saw it on that first day. I was…

We deal with trends. Not a learning system nor tech alone. Not due to tech stacks either. I’m talking about day-to-day life. I had a trend occur just over a week ago. An accident, fall if you will, with the probability that I would hit my head, and score another concussion (which would have been…

There are two types of learning systems. I’m not talking about an LMS, LXP, combo, TDP, or EXP (drop the name on that), learning platform, or “We are not an LMS, and anyway, they are a dying breed” (I’ve written that is far from true). What I am referring to, is commercial or in-house. In-house…

This quarterly addition focuses on the reskilling vs skilling question, educational institutions and e-learning, what to look for in a consultant when seeking learning technology and/or learning systems; and what I see as relevant when looking at a learning system. Q: I read that you are a proponent of the idea of reskilling over upskilling.…

If you have never experienced what I am about to cover, and you currently have a LMS, LXP, Learning Platform or any other type of learning system, heck even a talent management system with learning as a component, this little ditty will at some point come into play. For those of us, who have gone…

Do you remember your first love? Your first true love? If you met them in high school and are still together, good for you, but that first true love is no more for the rest of us. Hence, it is first and not still. What was the first meeting like? Seeing them? Catching a glance?…

I just read (1-31-24) that during the Pandemic, students (EdTech, K-12, Higher Education) went down something like 4% in learning. That’s not good. I blame it on two areas – that seem to reverberate that e-learning isn’t as effective (I disagree).  The first? Professors and teachers only do synchronous-based learning (which I believe isn’t as effective…
