Inspire is cloud-based and this permits all members of your development team to access, and work on, the same content no matter where they are located. This greatly speeds development, quality control and updating courses. Provides unlimited access to e-Learning materials When you upload your e-Learning course materials onto the Inspire LMS, your audience has unlimited access to the courses and the information they need. Your e-Learning is available to them wherever they are and whenever it is convenient to them. As today’s employee is often working from a home office, delivering e-learning through an LMS is more critical. Tracks learner progress and performance Tracking learner performance both motivates the learner to do better and helps you develop better courses. When learners know their progress is being monitored, they tend to pay greater attention to the content. Retention increases and test scores improve. With the analysis tools built into most LMSs, it’s easy to tell if a certain question or section of the training is being misunderstood. This allows course developers to improve difficult areas of your courses and deliver better courses. Updating training materials is fast & easy Compliance laws, company policies and procedures change frequently. Changing (and distributing) your printed materials to reflect new laws and policies is time consuming and costly. With an LMS, these changes take minutes and the updated materials are available immediately to your learners. Everyone is on the same page. Links to social media experiences As your LMS is already online, you can easily link to other resources such as YouTube videos, LinkedIn groups, blogs and so on to expand your training universe. ® also includes the ability to add peer-to-peer collaboration to your e-learning courses.
