What is the project about?
The University of Limerick Executive Committee, have given direction that certain training is mandatory for all staff. The Learning and Development unit, requires a Learning Management System (LMS) to fulfil this requirement and also to manage the general training requirements for university staff.
A Learning Management System (LMS) is a software application for the administration, documentation, tracking, reporting, automation, and delivery of learning and development programs.
What does it mean for you?
Once implemented, the Learning Management System will benefit all employees and provide a ‘one stop shop’ for employees with respect to their training needs, with the following key benefits:
-
Enable more efficient and accurate tracking of the completion of mandatory training and policy reviews.
-
Provide a more efficient process for organising training.
-
Improved reporting capabilities for managers.
-
More efficient use of L&D staff.
-
Increased attendance at planned training sessions.
