Latitude Learning LMS

The following are highlights from the Latitude Learning profile in the Association Learning Management Systems report.

The Latitude Learning LMS was originally created to train third parties, like association members and franchisees, not internal audiences. Still, Latitude staff note the one constant in the company’s work with associations is that every organization needs the LMS to act differently.

Latitude Learning focuses on adaptability: The Pet Industry Distributors Association uses the LMS to deliver training to their members’ customers, the American Board of Emergency Medicine uses the system for high-stakes certification, and the College of Emergency Room Physicians uses it for more “traditional” education purposes.

• The Latitude Learning LMS supports complex organizational structures via sophisticated parental hierarchies. Branding and content can be defined at the portal level down to the user attribute level. This flexibility easily accommodates chapter-based branding, for example.
• The LMS’s certification engine makes it possible to specify prerequisites, equivalencies, electives, and mandatory classes along with performance data to create certifications and curriculum.
• Clients can modify workflows in the LMS; for example, registration can be streamlined or collect detailed user data. Widgets are used to integrate with external systems.
• Latitude Learning takes an expansive view of its LMS, positioning it as a knowledge system, not just a platform for launching and tracking e-learning.
• An impersonation feature allows associations to provide great customer service by seeing what their users are seeing. An audit trail keeps track of actions taken by an administrator impersonating a user versus by the user herself.
• To avoid reinventing the wheel and focus on other features, Latitude Learning has embedded Ektron for rich content management functionality, and it uses BusinessObjects for reports.
• Latitude Learning offers its LMS customers over 75 free e-learning courses in coaching skills, customer service, project management, and other subjects.
• True to its flexibility credo, Latitude Learning offers its LMS as either software as a service or on a client-hosted open-source basis.

The full feature set of the Latitude Learning LMS lets it support multinational firms’ global training needs, and its adaptability means that smaller associations can make it work for them too. Best of all, Latitude Learning offers its LMS for free for up to 100 users, allowing you to fully vet the system for yourself.
