Welcome to the University of Massachusetts Medical School’s Learning Management System. Or, as we call it…the LMS. The LMS is your opportunity to learn anywhere, and at any time! During this short presentation, you’ll see how simple it is to navigate through the system. You’ll also learn how easy it is to create a profile and manage your account, how to personalize your home page, and how to access the online course library. A key message you’ll take away from this presentation is that the LMS is more than a learning system. The LMS is a valuable resource, one that supports your professional development and career mobility here at UMass Medical School.The courses that LMS offers will assist you as you continue your growth within our organization, developing skills specific to the UMass Medical School core and professional competencies, job families, and more. Our LMS will help you prepare for the next step in your career here at UMass Medical School.What does learning anywhere, anytime mean to you? It means you’ll have access to a wide range of leadership, skill and professional development content, compliance courses, and the UMass Medical School Core Competencies… all offered where, and when, you need… or want… to learn. And our courses are accessible on several platforms and devices. So, you can open a course and start learning at your desktop computer, your laptop, your tablet, and even your cell phone. And, if you begin a course but get interrupted, or need to stop for any reason, you can come back anytime and pick up right where you left off. Anywhere, anytime. Before I show you how to navigate through the system, let’s take a closer look at some of the benefits of using the LMS. There is a lot of information to take in when an employee starts any new job. So, a new hire joining our organization participates in a live orientation session with representatives from our Human Resources department. The LMS supports these live orientation sessions by allowing new employees to continue to learn about our organization at their own pace, and to review information as often as needed to become familiar with, and acclimated to, the workplace. The LMS offers a variety of compelling benefits for your professional growth and career planning. The system can be personalized according to your learning preferences with curated content that supports your career goals and your professional aspirations. With the LMS, our employees have more opportunities to improve the skills and competencies they need, not only to do their work, but also to prepare themselves for the next step in their career at UMass Medical School. The LMS is a great resource to improve current skills and to learn new skills. For many of the jobs at UMass Medical School, continuing compliance training is required, sometimes annually. The LMS makes compliance training easier and more convenient by allowing you to schedule and complete it as needed, by sending emails and reminders prior to the training, and by tracking course completion to ensure that legal requirements are met. Now that you know how you can use the LMS, let’s take a look inside the system. During the next few minutes, we’ll talk about the dashboard and metrics, how to create your user profile, and how to access the system using mobile devices.Let’s start at the LMS homepage, which is your dashboard. Notice the metrics banner. This gives you a summary of your coursework in the LMS. Click any circle within the banner with a number one or higher to retrieve more in-depth information. The horizontal menu tabs below will change to display the data. Click the “To Do” circle in the banner and see the courses or learning tracks your administrator has assigned directly to you.You can browse through all of the available courses and enroll in any that interest you. Simply click on the content tile to access the course you want to take. Another way to search for a specific course is to use the “search” bar. Fill in the name of a topic, and the system will search through the content library and show you any courses, books, audio books, and videos with related subject matter.The filter menu is another option to refine your search. You can choose to filter courses by topic categories or by selecting other filters such as popular categories. Customizing and personalizing your user profile is easy. Upload a picture to your LMS profile by going to your initials in the top right corner of the page to access the drop-down menu. Select “My Profile & Settings” and upload your picture. Within the “My Profile & Settings” page you can review your profile. All information is fed from our HR Peoplesoft system.
