Proven Learning Management System Implementation.
eLogic Learning knows all about learning and the technology required to support a world class training organization. But no one knows your organization’s culture and needs better than you. That is why creating your LMS is a collaborative effort. It’s the only way to ensure an effective system that works in your environment and promotes your values.
We have developed an implementation methodology which delivers a collaborative approach to designing your system while also ensuring the project is delivered on-time and on-budget.
Timeframe – From project kickoff to your production live date is usually completed within 6 weeks. Our implementation process focuses on knowledge transfer so that your team is completely comfortable on the system operations before any of your user’s access the system.
Project Management – Our Project Manager will guide you through the entire implementation with a reportable roadmap. We conduct a kickoff meeting with your team to outline the process. As part of that kickoff team, we review a detailed project plan which outlines key dates and responsibilities. We work with your team to revise that plan until we have a timeline agreed to by your resources. Once the project is underway, we will have weekly status meetings where we discuss overall project status, accomplishments, upcoming activities, and any open questions.
Initial Application Orientation – Within a week of the project kickoff, we will create a sandbox environment for your team to have a “proving ground” to review and test system functionality. Before giving you access to the sandbox environment, we hold two 1-2 hour web conferences with your key team members. This orientation training focuses in on the key aspects of the system you will need to successfully understand the design decisions required during the implementation.
Design Survey – The design survey documents all of the configuration options available in our application and how we conform our application to mirror your organizational flow. This easy to understand guide is the road map for setting up the application. We walk your team through each option to ensure the best configuration for your company.
Integration and Conversion – The application interfaces allow you to feed data into our LMS. This data includes users, transcript information, certifications, and other relevant data, as appropriate. These interfaces allow for an initial data conversion as well as on-going feeds from external systems. During this phase of the project, we review this interfaces with your team to determine which are appropriate for your needs. Once your team has built the file(s) to send to our application, we work with you to test the file logic and import data into the stage environment. This ensures the data transfer is consistent and correct before you start to load to the production application.
Administration Training - Two weeks before your production live date is scheduled, we conduct a 2 day administrative training session. This training is tailored to your particular requirements. We develop a draft training agenda based on your requirements concentrating time on these topics. Prior to training, we review that draft agenda with your key team members, revising as needed to align to your expectations and areas of interest.
User Acceptance Testing and Go-Live – Once training is completed, your team will have time to review a fully configured stage environment. This environment will include your specific branding as well as the other decisions you outlined in the design survey. Once your team has signed off that the stage environment meets their needs, we create the production environment. After an eLogic quality assurance review, we turn over the environment to your team!
