eLearning 24-7

DECEMBER 5, 2012

It is the holiday season and for those who see me as the grinch (okay a few vendors do, but I digress) here is a special post. Next week, 12-12-12, will be #10 to #1 learning management systems for 2012. While their UI is very user friendly, they really haven’t done much in terms of new cool features in 2012.

Too many vendors are focusing on talent/performance management as the next feature/component in their systems. Equally they are focusing on compliance components assuming that this is a huge upswing for an extensive list of companies. On the total number of employees, over 44% were from businesses 500 or less employees.

For each of these items in e-learning. In 2012 it has been all about collaborative/peer review with authoring products, and it still will be in 2013, but the avatars/actors with/without backgrounds are going to be in “fuego” Where can it go? In 2012, I’ve seen a slow uptake with tools that can output to HTML5.

I live it, perhaps too much, yet the other day I came across a learning blog informing its readers that in order for the LMS to survive: Must become modular. Must adapt to the new way of doing business. E-Commerce. Modules in 2012. Excluding the above, there are vendors out there who charge extra for. HRIS module.

Mind you, there is nothing wrong with doing so, and there are some nice advantages to it – mainly one stop shop, but if you are a LMS vendor who does not have an authoring tool built-in, it will not cause your demise. The 3Cs – Compliance, Certificates and CEUs. Compliance. Security is quite strong for SaaS systems.

Early Signs for 2012. This will become one of the biggest features in 2012 – especially with people wanting to create simulations without being an e-learning developer. Over 98% of the LMS/LCMS/learning platform have at least one compliance standard, so why use a RCAT that doesn’t?

There are companies who do not allow an employee to view anything on their computer due to compliance and regulatory issues. ASTD TechKnowledge – if you are an e-learning vendor this is a must show for you. I know quite a few vendors (more than you would guess) who are cutting down the number of shows in 2012.
