Licensed – Benefits
• You own the software – and likely won’t have to pay re-occurring fees for anything but maintenance and/or upgrades (if you choose to purchase it)
• You control the security – if security is a big issue for you, licensing the software might be better than a hosted solution because you can control access to the LMS (through a corporate firewall, etc.)
11
![Page 12: LMS 101](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020217/554e3f06b4c905f4478b4f19/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
SaaS* – Benefits
• Usually less expensive – Buying the software outright you will likely face a bigger upfront cost
• Don’t have to manage the servers – Let someone else set up servers, deal with security, manage load balancing and firewall
• Updates are usually included in monthly costs – If you own your own server you may or may not be entitled to free upgrades
* Software as a Service12

Requirements
• What is required by the LMS to view content?• Does the LMS work without additional plug-
ins or odd system requirements? • Do your LMS system requirements match the
systems your students will be using?– Do they support Safari browser on a Mac?– Do they support Firefox?– Do they support IE6 and later?

Flash (SWF)
• SWF, or Shockwave Format, is the default and most common publication option for Flash files
• Popular because Flash SWF files can play in any Flash-enabled browser
• Use the most recent version of Flash unless you are certain that your audience will be using older versions of Flash Player

Implementation Time
• Average Implementation times for an LMS range from:– 19.2 calendar days for a simple implementation of
a stock-standard LMS– 47.6 days for a “typical” implementation, as in the
usual experience of LMS vendors– 85.3 days for a complex implementation involving
integration and custom development

Data Upload
• How does your system upload my employee data? – Do I have to do it myself? – Can you do it, if I send you the file – and if
yes, is there an additional cost?– What types of files does your system
accept when I upload the data? – Do you take .csv files ?– What other formats?
19
![Page 20: LMS 101](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020217/554e3f06b4c905f4478b4f19/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Employee Data
• What fields do I need to have in order for the data to be uploaded correctly?– First name, last name– Employee ID # or a number you generate,
address?– City, zip code?
• Do you have to have the last name (first)?
20
![Page 21: LMS 101](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020217/554e3f06b4c905f4478b4f19/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
New Employees
• If I have a new employee, how do I add them? – Can I just upload that data record – i.e. via .CSV? – Or do I have to enter it manually?
• If we decide to do just weekly full employee data uploads, will it wipe/replace the original data that exists in the system? – Or will it only add the new information into the
system and keep the other data in existence?
21

Content Reports
• SCORM can provide a wealth of data about what a Learner does in a course, but it’s up to the LMS to keep the data and use it
• At a minimum, you’ll want to know what kind of reports there are, how data is tracked, and what the Learner sees

![Page 24: LMS 101](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020217/554e3f06b4c905f4478b4f19/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Reporting Needs
• Reporting should drive system configuration, training processes, data storage requirements, and organization of employees and courses
• Example: reporting requirements associated with mandates to hire and train local employees vs. expatriates
24
![Page 25: LMS 101](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020217/554e3f06b4c905f4478b4f19/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Information
• How often did the student go into the course? i.e. how many times or visits?
• How long (time wise) were they in the course?• What sections or modules or areas or pages did
they visit and how long (time wise)? • What courses did all the students for that
curriculum go into? How long were they in there? How often?
• Who accessed or entered the LMS? How often? (you can identify it by day, multiple days, week, etc.)
25
![Page 26: LMS 101](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020217/554e3f06b4c905f4478b4f19/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Generate Reports
• On a daily, weekly or monthly or whenever basis, i.e. how many times did student Y go into course A, course E and course G during week Z. OR Who accessed the courses on Tuesday?
• By department or division or curriculum• By people who have completed the courses
and reports of people who have completed the curriculum or learning track.

STANDARDS
27
![Page 28: LMS 101](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020217/554e3f06b4c905f4478b4f19/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Alphabet Soup
• AICC = Aviation Industry CBT Committee • IMS = An organization dedicated to
developing specification for distributed learning
• SCORM = Sharable Content Object Reference Model
• SCORM Version 1.2 = AICC + IMS • XML = eXtensible Markup Language
(a superset of HTML)
28
![Page 29: LMS 101](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020217/554e3f06b4c905f4478b4f19/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Standards – AICC
• AICC standards apply to the development, delivery, and evaluation of training courses that are delivered via technology; i.e., more often than not, through learning management systems
• AICC stands for the Aviation Industry CBT* Committee, an international association of technology-based training professionals that develops training guidelines for the aviation industry
29 * Computer-Based Training
![Page 30: LMS 101](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020217/554e3f06b4c905f4478b4f19/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
AICC Sections
• Course Server Communication– How are student results stored? – How does the course "player" obtain user
preferences? • Course Structure Definition
– How does the server load and broadcast course content?
– What content is served next?
30
![Page 31: LMS 101](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020217/554e3f06b4c905f4478b4f19/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
SCORM
• Sharable Content Object Reference Model: a set of specifications that, when applied to course content, produces small, reusablee-Learning objects
• A result of the Department of Defense's Advanced Distributed Learning (ADL) initiative, SCORM-compliant courseware elements are easily merged with other compliant elements to produce a highly modular repository of training materials

Adherence to Standards
• Can import and manage content that complies with standards regardless of the authoring system
• Unless the supplier certifies that the content will work on your LMS, plan on extra expenses
32
![Page 33: LMS 101](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020217/554e3f06b4c905f4478b4f19/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Standards – Questions
• Can they save a score for each page of test questions?
• If so, do they save one score per course, one score per test, or one score per test question?
• If a student re-takes a test, does the first score get stored or overwritten?
33
![Page 34: LMS 101](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020217/554e3f06b4c905f4478b4f19/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Things to Consider
• Most major content authoring tools support AICC, SCORM 1.2, and SCORM 2004
• If you often use custom-developed content, make sure your content developer can also work with your LMS’s standard of choice
• Both the ADL (who controls the SCORM standard) and the AICC offer certification for LMS vendors. If an LMS claims AICC, SCORM 1.2, and SCORM 2004 support, has it been certified as compliant?
34

Publishing Content
• How many steps does it take to get content to the LMS?– Packaged– Directly
• In what format does the content need to be?– Zipped format
36
![Page 37: LMS 101](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020217/554e3f06b4c905f4478b4f19/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Testing the Content
• Upload content to the LMS• Set up the content in the LMS
– Course name, access, etc. • Enroll a student • Run reports on tracked content
37
