include compliance training, online assessment,
collaborative learning, training resource management,
student self-service and the management of
continuing professional education.

the training materials to one location, learners are able
to access the materials anywhere and at any time, as

training programs, instructors and companies save a

with others and reused multiple times.

systems have helpful test and quiz making tools that
allow instructors to easily set up tests and automatic
grading. Security controls can also be used to prevent
cheating on online learning quizzes and tests.

systems, they also enjoy the benefit of big monetary
savings. Virtual classrooms provide big savings,
