An authoringtool , also called an eLearning development tool, is used to create the lessons themselves. A Learning Content Management System (LCMS) typically is an LMS to which the LMS vendor has added an authoringtool. Which eLearning Tool is Right for You? The lesson is usually not created in the LMS.
If you don’t already have an authoringtool, you’ll need to budget for that too. Many authoringtools have lively online user communities. Hire someone to conduct a Train the Trainer session for your SMEs either in-person or through an online series of classes. You’ll find an active community of IDs online.
What other technology will you require to deliver the eLearning program most efficiently to your learners – content authoringtools, webinar platforms?
