Open LMS at MountainMoot 2026 in Helena, Montana

Open LMS plans to participate in MountainMoot 2026 in Helena, Montana, July 8–10, 2026. Booth details will be confirmed closer to the event.

MountainMoot is a community-focused conference dedicated to learning management systems, instructional design, teaching and learning, and educational technology. Now in its 16th year, the event brings together educators, instructional designers, training professionals, and technology specialists from higher education, K–12, business, and government.

LMS Best Practices and Digital Learning

MountainMoot focuses on the practical use of learning technology to create better learning experiences. Its 2026 programme includes more than 40 sessions and workshops covering LMS best practices, course design, engagement, accessibility, pedagogy, and educational technology.

These conversations are particularly relevant for institutions looking to make their LMS more effective—not simply as a place to host courses, but as a foundation for engaging and accessible learning.

AI and Emerging Learning Technologies

AI is an important topic throughout the 2026 programme, with sessions exploring its impact on teaching and learning, course development, support, and the use of technology within LMS environments. Other sessions address accessibility and emerging technologies that can improve digital learning experiences.

Open LMS supports institutions as they evaluate and adopt new approaches to digital learning while keeping the learner experience at the centre.

A Community for LMS Professionals

One of MountainMoot's defining characteristics is its emphasis on collaboration and community. The conference combines hands-on training, breakout sessions, informal discussions, and networking opportunities designed to encourage attendees to share practical knowledge and experiences.
