Even more important, a learning management system was a new concept, so having to ask for X, when your budget has always been Y, isn’t an easy sell, especially when ROI is discussed. Mind you these were companies, some of which had hundreds of employees and generated over 150M a year.

Majority of employees access a LMS or Learning Portal out of the workplace. Now, why doesn’t a vendor mention this information to a potential client, at least the first point – I can understand holding off on the second point, for selling purposes. If you look at data across the board, two points constantly appear.

I have seen over 150 systems, 80 plus authoring tools, dozens of web conferencing products, mobile learning, quiz assessment tools, CMSs and learning portals, and not everyone of them meets those two statements. Learning Management Systems, LCMS, Learning Portals.

Even with a learning portal, many people have some type of database on the back end for tracking purposes. Worse, it does a disservice to a product that sees itself as a content authoring tool, not a hybrid learning management system.

How many of you have seen vendors respond to your questions? How many of you have posted questions regarding LMSs on Quora, Linkedin or the various other social media sites available on the net? How many of you have had hundreds of comments as a result of these questions, and than rather than solve it, create only more confusion?

When you view the painting “Ceci n’est pas une pipe” – “this is not a pipe”, you would think to yourself – “how could this be”? After all, you are looking at a pipe, therefore a contradiction has taken place. If you are seeing a pipe, it therefore must be a pipe? But it isn’t.

Dragons and knights aren’t heading down the e-learning path. I love a good story. A story that has solid characters, a nice foundation, possible scenarios – that may be true, but who really knows, in other words, a fantasy. Thankfully scenarios such as the end of the world, isn’t upon us.

Buyers and Sellers of courses who can then use the course in any learning management system, so they are not tied to one LMS, is happening. Today, there is a real tiny number of e-learning companies offering it, but considering only one truly began it in 2010, it makes sense that it is going to grow.
