Six Steps To e-Learning Engagement And Boosting The Value Of Your LMS

The result could be learning management systems reduced to little more than administrative tools - used to house learning content and produce usage reports. This document takes a different approach, focusing on how to maximize your company's investment in learning systems for organisational benefit.

The key to improved usage of your learning system is engagement. That requires an understanding of both your learners and their managers. It is the manager who will determine whether learners have the time, space and encouragement to learn what they need. Engagement then means changing the behavior of both managers and learners, which is why this white paper concentrates on boosting learner engagement through an effective marketing programme.

The programme is built over six steps:

1 - Confirm the business driver and your approach
2 - Confirm your audience
3 - Understand your stakeholders
4 - Build a communications plan
5 - Ensure feedback
6 - Sustain engagement

The first of these is crucial. A clear business driver needs to get managers 'on board' their support is fundamental to the success of your engagement programme.

Once you have made an investment in learning content and delivery systems, it makes sense to get full value out of them, especially when the economy is faltering. This six step programme has been produced by CERTPOINT Systems after many years of helping organisations make the most of the CERTPOINTVLS™ Learning Management Suite. Whether you already have a learning management system, or are thinking of investing in one, consider talking to CERTPOINT about your organisational learning needs.
