Overall Satisfaction with Totara LMS
The entire organization uses totara LMS. We are spread across 103 sites in NZ, so we needed a way to get all of our people to access compliance and essential technical training regardless of how remotely they are based. We also needed to be able to track and report on whether people had completed their compliance courses and other learning events that were being released. We have also worked with our provider to create a skills Matrix Plugin that allows our front line managers to assess each of their team against a list of skills assigned to their particular jobs. The manager can then run a report that allows them to prioritize the tasks the person cannot yet perform and then assign the learner those training sessions that match the skills they need. This will enable managers across the country to see exactly where there is any risk in terms of a lack of a particular skill in their office. It also allows learners to go into the skills matrix and see what skills they might need to move into a different role.
Pros
- Easy user interface with good ability to brand to your own environment.
- Relatively easy to administrate yourself.
Cons
- Reporting can be a little inflexible - sometimes, the report cannot be customized to have all the columns you need as they are not available from that area of the LMS.
- Graphic reporting needs some more work to be a bit more professional looking.
- Compliance risk has noticeably decreased as we are now sitting at about 96% compliance.
- Overall training spend markedly decreased as we can give people access to online alternatives
