If you’re looking for a new learning system right now, keep the above factors in mind. And for an LMS that shines in those areas, consider the Rockstar Learning Platform.
Integrations
The Rockstar Learning Platform integrates with leading technologies including HRIS, CRMs, ecommerce, conferencing solutions, content libraries, and more. We can also accommodate custom integrations and sync data using Zapier. Plus, you can publish your Lectora and CenarioVR courses directly to The Rockstar Learning Platform. In addition, you can purchase libraries of off-the-shelf courses from us that will be directly available within your instance of the Rockstar Learning Platform.
Collaboration
We’ve made it really easy for everyone to contribute knowledge using the Rockstar Learning Platform. Any user can share text, images, and videos uploaded or captured with their own device. Users can also add content they like most to relevant Boards, then instantly share them with users or groups they collaborate with.
Plus, share and delegate the work of training administration! Set up Offices to let teams and departments have a personalized learning portal with access to their relevant courses. Then, delegate the work to multi-level admins/managers and allow them to add/remove users, enroll their people in courses, and run their own reporting.
Customization
If you’re serving multiple divisions, chapters, or clients, you can easily add a private-label experience for each entity with their own home page branding, banner, URL, email address, and user admin.
That’s why it’s so essential to choose a learning technology now that will be able to grow with your organization and meet evolving needs over the next few years.
