The Learninglogics® Learning Content Management System (LCMS) is a content development tool that allows Instructional Systems Designers (ISDs), courseware developers and Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to build state-of-the art web-based lessons and tests.

Using a SCORM architecture based on reusable learning objects, the LCMS makes it easy to develop, assemble, reuse, update and maintain content. Learning objects are essentially “chunks” of training that contain content and assessment based on specific learning objectives. The size and level of granularity of Sharable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM) learning objects packaged for a Learning Management System (LMS) varies, depending on project requirements. The SCORM learning object may be an entire activity, part of an activity or the multimedia assets for an activity.

Different types of activities can be created, called:

The Independent Study and Test activities may both be used for independent study. They can be used as stand-alone lessons that can be copied and reused in many different courses. The ability to copy content between Independent Study lessons and Instructor Led lessons provides additional flexibility to reuse content. The Instructor Led Lessons are used for the delivery of facilitated training. All provide web-based training with a powerful and flexible content development tool.

The LCMS automates the process of content creation by using a wide range of predefined templates for instruction and question screens, and allows the integration of a range of web-compatible multimedia. It lets trainers build glossaries and test banks, create a media library, manage prompts and training documentation, track copyright permissions and perform production analysis.

The LCMS also enables trainers to register the course(s) in a compatible LMS. Once the activities have been created, the LCMS enables users to build or design courses for use in a compatible LMS. Activities may be reused to construct multiple versions of courses. When course activities are accessed from the LMS, a user’s progress and performance are tracked.

There are nine different types of system-generated user roles that may be assigned rights within the LCMS:
