Making the connection between learning and performance

October 11th, 2007

A few weeks ago, we revealed our new Halogen eLMS at the user conference. The response from our customers was extremely positive. A performance-based learning management system is a new direction, but it is really the natural next step for talent management.

While big companies have been using LMS for years, these systems were designed to address the administrative burdens of training departments. Traditional stand-alone LMS offerings were not linked to HR or employee performance programs, not to mention being complex and difficult to implement. Increasingly, the integration of learning and performance review systems is a key priority for learning and development managers.

The vision for Halogen eLMS is simple - to not only automate the learning process, but to properly align employee performance with learning activities. By building on our award-winning employee performance management suite, organizations will now have the industry’s first talent management system to include an enterprise-level performance-based LMS. An LMS offering that is simple to implement and manage and is accessible to midmarket organizations.

Andrea Uxa from Epson America, summed up customer response to our newest offering: “By integrating this process with performance management we expect that we will get people performing in their jobs more quickly and more consistently. Halogen has always listened closely to our needs in the areas of performance and development and we are excited about the upcoming release of eLMS.”

We’re excited about this new phase in our product evolution - and hope that everyone else is too!
