Knowledge Anywhere At A Glance
Product Overview
For the purposes of this review, we’ll focus on Knowledge Anywhere’s LMS.
Knowledge Anywhere’s learning management system (LMS) is a comprehensive training solution for employers to assign and control lesson plans. By tracking workforce skills gaps, employers can identify who would benefit from the system’s lessons, then set employees on custom career paths.
The solution comes with three pricing options. The least expensive option, Express, is available to 500 active users and gives organizations the ability to have two system administrators with standard support and unlimited course uploads for just $1.60/month per user.
Knowledge Anywhere’s other solutions include Course Builder, where users can create their own original training programs, and Course Development, where users have access to eLearning specialists who design job-specific courses.
Features
These five key features highlight the LMS software’s core functionality:
1. Content Management – Administrators can organize LMS content such as virtual lessons, webinars, instructor-led training and certifications. Content is also accessible from a mobile device. Administrators can add their own SCORM-compliant content as well.
2. Custom Learning Paths – Create lesson hierarchies for users to complete. Identify skills gaps and assign employees to take lessons for their professional growth.
3. Certificate Authentication – Allow employees to take certified lessons. Regulatory requirements can be fulfilled through online courses and then displayed on users’ LinkedIn profiles.
4. Reporting Dashboard – Track metrics on employees to gauge the effectiveness of the training program. Watch real-time metrics or set long-term goals for business planning.
5. Custom Branding and Social – Administrators can add company colors and logos to the solution to reflect their brand. Users can also interact with lesson plans through social media and share their success, making each lesson personalized.
