A learning management system (LMS) is a software application for the administration, documentation, tracking, reporting and delivery of electronic educational technology (also called e-learning) education courses or training programs.
Description
LMSs range from systems for managing training and educational records to software for distributing online or blended/hybrid college courses over the Internet with features for online collaboration.
Colleges, universities, school districts, and schools use LMSs to deliver online courses and augment on-campus courses.
LMSs also act to augment the lessons the teacher is giving in a brick and mortar environment not just replace them.
Corporate training departments use LMSs to deliver online training, as well as to automate record-keeping and employee registration.
