Helping You Choose There are several aspects to a successful e-learning program. You need a website to host courses that your users can easily navigate. You need tools that you and other authors are familiar with to create content, quizzes and assessments. Finally, you need tools to generate reports and distribute management tasks. Until only a couple of years ago you may have needed several systems: a Learning Management System (LMS) to manage the portal and user registration, one or more specialized Authoring Tools (AT) to build content, and a Learning Content Management Systems (LCMS) to maintain a course outline and repository. The Mindflash system includes all the required components and important functions of an LMS, Authoring Tool, and LCMS integrated in one consistent system and for a much reduced cost.
