Transaction History
What is LMS?
LMS, or Learning Management System, is an abbreviation for a learning management system that is necessary for conducting e-learning. It is used to manage the delivery of learning materials, as well as the management of group training, learner performance, and progress history.
It has functions such as login, course creation, learning material registration, and attendance management.
In Japan, it has been introduced in companies since around 2000, and since 2020, the demand for online learning due to the COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated its adoption not only in companies, but also in universities and other institutions.
In recent years, there has been an increase in systems that can be operated as a Learning Experience Platform (LXP) that integrates performance management of employees and provides a learning experience tailored to each employee.
When selecting an LMS, key points to consider include "purpose/goal," "on-premises or cloud," "simple functions (focused on delivering learning materials and managing history) or advanced functions (covering talent development and organizational development)," and "how to integrate with HR systems."
