Relias Learning Management System - Training possibilities are endless with this titan of a platform!
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We currently use Relias Learning Management System to streamline how we are able to push out mandatory trainings to employees who are spread out across the WNY area, as well as a mixture of remote & on-site employees. We also use Relias Learning Management System to for policy sign offs, supervisor trainings that we create and upload in the Relias Learning Management System, etc. The platform is very versatile--having a lot of pre-built trainings in the system but allowing you to create and upload your own as well.
Pros
- Relias Learning Management System has a massive catalog of pre-built trainings available for employees to take at their leisure
- Relias Learning Management System has many compliance & hr related trainings based in the system already based on laws and regulations
- Relias Learning Management System makes it easy to record & build your own trainings to add into their system for specific employees in your company to take as you require
Cons
- Sometimes getting our HRIS system & Relias Learning Management System to work together can be clunky. We sometimes have to manually add new users versus having them feed over properly from our HRIS platform
- Relias Learning Management System requires an attestation at the end of every training that seems very formal "under penalty of law, I've taken this training". Seems a bit over the top for basic training courses
- Relias Learning Management System defaults to sending excessive email reminders--there are ways to curb this but we've heard from staff that the emails are too frequent
Return on Investment
- We've been able to save money on purchasing outside trainings from vendors
- We've been able to retain our supervisors and managers because we can provide them in-depth, company specific training through the platform
- We've reduce labor hours to hold in person trainings and instead push trainings out through Relias Learning Management System wherever appropriate
