LearnSomething Isoph Blue

The following are highlights from the LearnSomething Isoph Blue profile in the Association Learning Management Systems report.

LearnSomething was the only participating company to submit profiles for two distinct systems: LearnPro+ and Isoph Blue. The Isoph Blue system became a part of the company’s product portfolio along with its 2005 acquisition of Isoph, an association e-learning provider that brought clients like the Society for Human Resource Management, the American Correctional Association, and the American Nurses Credentialing Center into the LearnSomething fold.

Isoph Blue is among the subset of systems featured in this report that offer integrated content authoring capabilities as well as tools for managing facilitated, asynchronous learning experiences. As with the company’s LearnPro+ system, Isoph Blue is integrated with the Community Server platform from Telligent, though LearnSomething reports that not all capabilities of Community Server are currently available to Isoph Blue users.

  • Isoph Blue offers a reasonably intuitive set of tools for managing nearly all aspects of the learning environment, from general look and feel of the learning portal, to development of on-demand course modules and facilitated learning experiences.
  • Isoph Blue provides some of the most sophisticated credit profile capabilities of any system included in the report. Multiple types of continuing education credit, along with parameters for awarding the credit, can be attached to a single course. The system also automates issuance of certificates and learner access to a transcript.
  • For a relatively small company, LearnSomething has done a good job of developing the user community for Isoph Blue, an effort it says it will expand in the coming year.
  • LearnSomething has made a major effort over the past year to improve the reporting capabilities of the system by expanding the number of reports available as well as the ability to handle a high volume of report requests.
  • Isoph Blue has been integrated—most typically via real-time Web services—with major association management systems like iMIS from Advanced Solutions International, TIMSS and Personify from TMA Resources, CRM for Members from Protech, and netFORUM from Avectra.

Perhaps more than any other system profiled in this report, Isoph Blue attempts to build a bridge between traditionally corporate approaches to on-demand, self-pace learning and the more facilitated experiences typically associated with academia. While the results are sometimes mixed, the platform does offer an impressive range of capabilities. Additionally, LearnSomething as a company has a solid track record of implementing these capabilities for associations.
