Student-Centered Custom LMS Solutions for Institutions of Every Size
Regardless of your institution’s size or the complexity of your requirements, Open LMS can be customized to your specifications to ensure your faculty is prepared and your students’ educational needs are met. We offer a variety of solutions for higher education institutions of all sizes:
Universities and Larger Institutions
The bigger your institution, the more complex your needs. Update, manage, and provide learning content across multiple departments and campuses with a fully integrated multi-tenancy solution. Easily manage multiple learning environments at once with secure, streamlined deployment that lets you deliver courses to students at speed and scale without diminishing program quality. Give your tenants access to their own unique course catalogs and curricula, and present them with tailored experiences unique to their campus or department.
Our LMS for universities lets you enhance student learning and further your research initiatives with collaborative tools like discussion boards, synchronous and asynchronous virtual meetings, interactive content, and virtual messaging tools to encourage students, instructors, and professors to work together, regardless of their physical location.
Community Colleges and Smaller Institutions
Community colleges and smaller institutions often have diverse learner populations that include part-time and non-traditional students like older adults, full-time workers, and parents. Support your learners with Open LMS’s tools and features designed specifically to make learning environments more accessible for every student. Open LMS has a user-friendly interface that’s easy to navigate so learners can work through their courses without wasting precious time searching for their learning materials.
Personalization tools like the Personalized Learning Designer (PLD), an Open LMS-exclusive plugin, can help you create customized learning experiences for your students that ensure they complete the coursework they need to earn their degrees or complete their programs. PLD can also:
- Direct users to study groups if they fall behind
- Send learners suggestions for new content related to their current learning materials
- Give learners suggestions for additional materials based on their performance in a course or interest in a learning topic
- Accelerate students’ learning paths, potentially saving them even more time, based on their assessment and activity scores
Technical and Trade Schools
Some skills can’t be demonstrated online, but that doesn’t mean you don’t need an LMS. Technical and trade schools can leverage Open LMS’s collaborative learning features to simplify communication between instructors and students, as well as connect students with each other to exchange ideas and discuss essential training topics. Keep track of competencies and other student achievements with robust tracking and analytics features.
Store learning materials like instructional videos, digital textbooks, and manuals within the learning platform, and take advantage of Open LMS’s exclusive Personalized Learning Designer (PLD) to give your students access to additional content that applies to their interests. With PLD, your students can move more rapidly through the online portion of your training program based on their performance on previous coursework. If students don’t achieve certain thresholds, PLD will automatically assign supplemental learning materials to help them, as well as alert the instructor of who needs more support.

If your institution doesn’t fit neatly into a conventional category, that’s okay! We have higher education LMS solutions that are flexible enough to meet any institution’s unique post-secondary learning needs. Contact us to learn how we can assist you in providing exceptional learning experiences.
