A new resource repository will enable learning assets to be centralised, reused and shared more efficiently, while a host of new functions will help organisations deploy, track and share their learning assets with greater efficiency. LMS version 5.6 promises to deliver the best learning experience with less administrative effort.

The release also includes new reporting capabilities, reporting that will help training managers and business leaders both track learner progress and encourage course completion. A wider range of filtering options enables reporting at all levels of the organisation and on all types of learning methods, including classroom sessions, tests, evaluations and online modules. This release also includes increased functionality for visual presentation of graphs and charts, making it easier to analyse data, target areas for follow-up, and ultimately achieve better results.
