CareAcademy's training program is easier to understand for caregivers. For administrators it is simple to manage.
Relias Learning Management System
Chose Relias Learning Management System
Relias was an economical choice when we first purchased the program.
Chose Relias Learning Management System
More courses available and the Administrative functions are easier to navigate.
Chose Relias Learning Management System
Relias has significantly more and higher quality training courses and video offerings than any competitor in the space. At the end of the day, it's about the caregivers receiving as much information they can to be successful.
Chose Relias Learning Management System
We switched from Relias to ceu360. Personally I though Relias was better.
Chose Relias Learning Management System
We have used the Silver Chair; however, Relias Learning Management System purchased the Silver Chair. Before that, we would do all the training in house with an instructor.
Chose Relias Learning Management System
We have not used any other system to compare RLMS to.
Chose Relias Learning Management System
Halogen also had it's pros and cons but for the industry that i am in, Relias is a better option due to the number of courses available for staff in the industry.
Chose Relias Learning Management System
Not applicable as RLMS was our first and only choice.

We are solving the problems of consistent training and accessibility to training. It can be a challenge scheduling everyone and making sure that everything is presented in the same capacity and mannger. It helps tremendously with tracking and reporting initial and continuing education. I can also use it to do review training to refresh new skills. It is easier for our employees to use.

Good for an organization who are in health care and in ABA. Not so good everyone else. There are courses specific to the industry, however, the glitches and the lack of support from the customer service staff makes it hard to recommend the product.

Cons
  • Would love to see ongoing trainings that are between 1-5 minutes in length that could be texted to caregivers

  • The UI needs to be modernized and more user-friendly for non-technical individuals.
  • Courses need to be updated with more engaging content. Extremely painful to read the course materials for hour long.
  • The platform can be upgraded to increase speed and navigation.

RMLS have become an important component of our agency's support systems. It provides consistent context for education and trainings as well as being flexible to allow staff to access it on their time. We have found many of the content sessions to be very useful for staff development and supportive of our overall agency goals and strategies.

Usability
Simple to use even with little training.

I enjoy the ease of setup. It has a large course library and selection filter to choose by
profession and/or module type. Even though it has a generic user
interface and navigating tools, but it gets the job done. It offers the
basic and simple delivery, tracking, and reporting.

Relias staff has been accommodating whenever support is needed. When Relias staff are at booths at conferences, they also engage very positively and are available for support. It seems as if the Relias staff really care about the work they do and the product they offer.

It was very easy to implement. It's cloud based, so the most difficult part was getting users loaded.
