It’s 2023, and the way in which we operate, learn, and collaborate has evolved tremendously. For highly regulated industries, it’s essential to have a learning management system that can adapt and drive impact within the organization. This is where having an LMS architecture can be a great asset not only for training the internal team but also for those learning outside of the organization.
Learning management system architecture has been a hot topic for the past few years, and it can vary among learning management systems. For the Meridian LMS, the focus is on equipping an organization to segment learner populations and have the insight to manage them all within one system.
Custom branding comes in handy for designing catalog items for one learner environment while allowing different branding for another. This can consist of brand colors, images, and, most importantly, multiple domain URLs. Creating separate URLs provides for a unique and personalized experience for all learner populations. An LMS with multi-domain capabilities allows the administrator to control which content is viewable by specific populations. Not only are multiple domains a win for administrators because of the time savings, but they are also beneficial for learners, who can tailor their learning to their specific needs. With separate URL distinctions, these learner populations will receive accurate catalog recommendations within their interfaces and high-level access to material relevant to their roles.
While branding is just one piece of the puzzle, having this structure allows the organization to become more streamlined. An extended enterprise will enable you to meet the needs of training internal employees for onboarding and compliance purposes. However, an extended enterprise LMS will meet the mark if you are interested in offering training beyond your internal employees to partners or customers. Training offerings for multiple learner populations could lead to more efficient business processes and significant cost savings. An LMS that can serve external employees can significantly improve the quality of training for the organization as a whole and streamline the process for administrators.
LMS architecture can have many meanings, but the Meridian LMS allows users to customize their branding, use multiple URLs for different populations, and specify catalog accessibility. By delivering a fully customized experience to the extended enterprise, you can optimize your chances of employee retention, boost overall business performance, and maximize client satisfaction.
