I’ve been blessed with a pretty wide range of opportunities for implementing different HR systems, including Learning Management Systems (LMS). Here, I would just like to share some humble ideas and tips through 4 phases: discovery, planning, implementation and deployment which will lead you to a successful LMS project.
The most important aspect in any LMS implementation is to plan every step carefully and take into consideration all the details involved. Start with the goals and purpose of the LMS and then move to the actual implementation.
My tips for successful implementation of an LMS assume you have already chosen an LMS and taken into consideration its functionality, integration with other systems, costs (upfront and long-term), hosting specs, staff training requirements, LMS life cycles and life span support and you have also pilot tested the LMS properly. Here we go...
Even after identifying the Learning Management System (LMS) that will make your eLearning dreams come true, it is totally natural to have some apprehension about the implementation. After all, LMS platforms are only as successful as the people planning for and implementing them. After seeing the good, the bad and the ugly with implementations, here are some tips we give our clients to help avoid common pitfalls.

In almost any scenario, a successful LMS implementation will require a solid plan that should consider addressing the following issues...
Organizations that fully adopt eLearning as a culture spend time up front planning for the implementation, and then work together as a team to set up the LMS correctly, ultimately save time and better manage the LMS once it is live.
If I were to list all my tips this would become quite lengthy, so in true Digits style of keeping things “Brilliantly Simple” I will summarise with my “Top 5”.

With a little bit of foresight, planning and preparedness, you too can have a smooth, seamless rollout. Here are the critical keys to success to consider before you begin your implementation journey...
When incorporated properly in a project, the following can only lead to the successful implementation of a Learning Management System, that will be a pleasure to use for all involved and for many years to come.
So, you’re implementing a Learning Management System? Kudos. Before you get too technical, make sure to take a step back and look at the big picture. A successful LMS implementation begins with a holistic view of your organization’s needs and understanding what a good user experience looks like.
