Flunking out: Despite being widely used, learning management systems continue to
disappoint. According to a new survey, 81 percent of users report a “high level
of dissatisfaction” with such systems, particularly in reporting capabilities,
integration and limited standardized reporting capacity, notes a survey by
consulting firms Expertus and TrainingOutsourcing.com. Limitations on data
collection, customization and usability are other frustrations. But the biggest
challenge is ensuring data about training measurements are accurate, cited by 51
percent of respondents, with many users professing “a desire to bring more
business focus to training requirements.”
