 LEARNING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM OF GTBIT

GLMS
A learning management system (commonly abbreviated as LMS)
is a software application for the administration, documentation,
tracking, and reporting of training programs, classroom and
online events, e-learning programs, and training content. A robust
LMS is be able to do the following:

• centralize and automate administration

• use self-service and self-guided services
• assemble and deliver learning content rapidly
• consolidate training initiatives on a scalable web-based
platform
• support portability and standards
• Personalize content and enable knowledge reuse.

LMSs range from systems for managing training and educational

records, to software for distributing courses over the Internet with
features for online collaboration. Corporate training use LMSs to
automate record-keeping and employee registration. Student self-
service (e.g., self-registration on instructor-led training), training
workflow (e.g., user notification, manager approval, wait-list
management), the provision of on-line learning (e.g., Computer-
Based Training, read & understand), on-line assessment,
management of continuous professional education (CPE),
collaborative learning (e.g., application sharing, discussion
threads), and training resource management (e.g., instructors,

facilities, equipment), are dimensions to Learning Management
Systems.

Some LMSs are Web-based to facilitate access to learning content

and administration. LMSs are used by regulated industries (e.g.
financial services and biopharma) for compliance training. It can
be used in our institute to enhance and support classroom
teaching and offering courses to a larger population of
learners.Users would be allowed to copy, use and GLMS( GTBIT’s
