  • Importance of Stakeholders’ Involvement while Selecting your LMS

Choosing the right learning management system (LMS) for an organization is the toughest job because there are numerous stakeholders with diverse backgrounds, learning interests, and styles. And, the common goal here should be an intuitive LMS that meets the needs of the majority of the stakeholders. An LMS, being an enterprise-wide solution needs to ensure that learners, admins, and instructors are equally involved and happy with the LMS deliverables. Though choosing an LMS for an organization is the job of the L&D and HR teams, it would be great to have a survey on learners’ needs to understand the learning experience requirements from the learners. Today we will discuss why stakeholders’ involvement is crucial during LMS selection for your organization. Let’s begin!

Why Should You Engage Stakeholders?

As we know an LMS is meant to manage and organize course creation, create and organize learning activities, offer role-based access to users, generate reports using dashboards, and analyze the report data using analytics. LMS implementation will impact a large number of stakeholders. Every role has a unique requirement from the LMS depending on the usability and perspective. Every stakeholders’ usability and perspective must be taken care of while picking the LMS. This will answer how to select an LMS. You need to focus on the following things:

    • Show Empathy:

      Stakeholders’ roles, and your organization’s goals and purpose are to be considered for       selecting an LMS. Learners, instructors, system administrators, instructional designers       (course authors), and technical support are a crucial part of the learning management       software selection process. Involving all the stakeholders eliminates any chance of       learning risks in the future. Understanding their experience, expectations, and       problems will help you figure out what exactly they want in the learning software.

    • Understand the Success Criteria:

      Your success lies with the organization’s and business leaders’ success. Include the       business goals of these stakeholders and ensure that the LMS can establish a       connection between success and business goals for them. Understand how the LMS is       able to support leadership roles and their learning delivery needs.

    • Offer Support:

      Establish a connection with the stakeholders and make them feel valued and engaged       in the selection process. Each of them is a part of the project whom you might need in       the future. They might help you with learning data, organizing a workshop, or having       expertise in the project.

Key factors for LMS selection:

Usability, accessibility, scalability, and adaptability are a few of the most sought-after user requirements for a learning management system software. Apart from that, a SaaS-based LMS ensures that stakeholders are engaged within the LMS with a gamified intuitive interface that enables them to learn with fun. They get to earn badges, certificates, credits, etc. while learning within the gamified platform. Moreover, AI-enabled features like suggested learning paths/courses/certificates based on the learners learning history/interest/job role and AI-proctoring for pre-hiring assessment, onboarding training, etc., play a key role in learner satisfaction. The most popular features are as follows:

  • Gamification for user engagement and retention
  • Third-party software integration capabilities (Salesforce, ERP, CRM (Salesforce), HRMS,       AMS(Fonteva), etc.)
  • AI technology for learning path/course suggestion
  • E-commerce capabilities for extra income and non-dues revenue (for associations)
  • Online and offline (network-independent in-app) learning
  • Administrative task automation
  • Social and collaborative learning (chats, discussion forums, quizzes, polls, surveys,       emails, etc.)
  • Intuitive interface accessible for non-technical users
  • Meeting specially-abled learners’ needs
  • Reporting, dashboards, and analytics for meaningful learning data insights
  • SCORM/AICC/xAPI compliant content authoring tools with multiple formats and       language support
  • Mobile-friendly and personalized content creation

Well, if you are confused about picking the right LMS for your organization don’t forget to have a quick survey with your stakeholders. After all, they are the people who are going to use the LMS and meet the organizational goals. When it comes to understanding and meeting their professional goals they know what exactly they want.
