The Association market is by far, IMO, one of the top three markets, that as a vendor, you should be in. In the past, I’ve always listed the association mkt within the B2B/Customer Education, because it does fit nicely within.

There is enough data to support the fact that most companies are less than satisfied with their Learning Management Systems (LMS).

The premise that an LXP, for example, does so much more than an LMS is 100% untrue. The vast majority of LXPs today are within a learning platform, or an LMS or as an add-on option to either of those offerings. Docebo, an LMS, scores around 62%. Thrive, a former legit LXP, is now an LMS. Yet here we are. Both are LMSs.

Selecting an LMS can be a very involved process. Once you have narrowed the list of vendors that seem to fit your needs, watched demos to see the Learning Management System functionality, and narrowed the field, then comes the reference checking.

However, implementing a learning program with a corresponding learning management system (LMS) is easier said than done. Associations may struggle to find the technology that’s right for them, in part because they’re unsure about what they need in an LMS. Pre-vet and shortlist vendors. Identify and clarify objectives.
