Top 10 Practices for a Successful LMS Replacement

Thursday, September 20 from 1-2 pm EST; online
Presented by Meridian Knowledge Solutions and Brandon Hall

Based on our most recent LMS Trends survey, one out of every three organizations is looking at replacing their learning management system (LMS). This statistic isn’t surprising—as learning becomes an increasingly important part of an organization’s ability to survive in today’s competitive market. Organizations are finding that learning is a part of their secret sauce, when tailored to their industry and unique business differentiators. But, even if change is necessary, it isn’t always easy. When the time comes and replacement is inevitable, the first step shouldn’t be product demonstrations—but rather the development of a replacement strategy. A little upfront work goes a long way toward a successful LMS replacement and implementation outcome. Partnering effectively with your current LMS provider is critical to ensure a smooth transition. Join Stacey Harris, VP of research for Brandon Hall Group, and Jason Marceau, VP of operations from Meridian, as they outline key elements of an effective replacement strategy, and key practices for successful replacement implementations.

Key takeaways of the event:
•  Elements of a replacement strategy
•  Key practices by industry: financial, health care, high-tech, transportation, and
   public sectors
•  Key practices by complexity: size, global, cultural, and mature learning models
•  Lessons learned and pitfalls to avoid
