A Learning Management System (LMS) can greatly simplify the process of achieving and maintaining ISO (International Standards Organizations) certification. Prosperity LMS provides flexible and efficient solutions for manufacturers to track training, standardize processes and ensure that employees are adhering to the necessary standards and specifications, both for ISO certification and for Occupational Health and Safety Administration requirements.

If your company is exploring the benefits of ISO certification, we can work with you to craft a system that will help you get the job done at a price you can afford.

Whatever compliance requirements you face — and in today’s world, most companies face many industry and governmental regulations that require compliance tracking and reporting — we can help you meet them.  Prosperity LMS can provide the platform you need to schedule and deliver the necessary training to your employees, track and report their progress and ensure ongoing compliance with necessary quality standards.

Ziiva offers customized solutions for your business, tailored to meet your individual needs for ISO and OSHA compliance. We can help you automate tracking, reporting and training to take the headaches out of ISO certification and OSHA compliance.

We can develop a system that will help you determine the skills required for every position in your operation and then deliver a training and assessment program to make sure employees keep and maintain the skill sets they need, while documenting everything so that you have the records you need to prove compliance or easily deal with audits.

Prosperity LMS can help you train new employees and make sure your long-time employees and supervisors have the knowledge and training they require to do their jobs as efficiently and safely as possible.  Our team will help automate your compliance training to make it as simple as possible. Reminders, scheduling, assessment, tracking and reporting can all be automated so that you can focus on your manufacturing process, not paperwork.

Our system can produce rigorous exams to assess how well your employees have absorbed the training and other necessary information and compile the reports of these assessments you need to track compliance.

ISO certification can help your company improve its processes and training, ensuring safe, efficient and quality production. If you’ve hesitated to seek such certification in the past because of the logistics involved or if you’ve achieved certification but struggled with compliance and record-keeping, Prosperity LMS may be your answer. We offer flexible billing models and have a highly experienced team that will get you up and running as quickly as possible and within your budget.

Integrating your new LMS with 3rd-party systems

Posted by susan reuter on Thu, Mar 08, 2018

As you set up a new LMS, you may have to integrate with 3rd-party HR systems (like ADP), CRM systems (like SalesForce), Association Management Systems (like Abila, formerly Avectra), or other platforms.

While every setup is different, we’ve pulled together four issues that frequently arise during this process, and suggestions for how your LMS partner can work with you to solve them.

Integrating your new LMS with 3rd-party systems*: Four issues and our suggestions for how to solve them. | Issue 1: Your users have to log in each time they move between your LMS and your other systems. Solution: Single sign-on (SSO) gives the user a seamless entry into the LMS from one of your other systems, without having to enter a username/password into the LMS. How to acheive this: Many LMSs support a variety of SSO methods. Your 3rd-party vendor should provide documentation or assistance to get your SSO system working with your new LMS. | Issue 2: You have a dynamic user population, and you want to have imports scheduled on a regular basis. Solution: Real-time user account synchronization, which is typically done through file transfer (such as a CSV file), could be scheduled as often as you like. How to achieve this: Ask your LMS provider if they have an API to create and update user accounts. Issue 3: You want to present data from the LMS and another system at the same time. Solution: Real time user data gives you the capability to view data from multiple systems on the same screen. How to achieve this: Talk with your new LMS provider and see what options are available. | Issue 4: You may have other systems that need the results of a learner's progress. Solution: User progress synchronization can be done by file export, email, or API call to the external system. Updates could be scheduled or real time, depending on your need. How to achieve this: Ask your LMS provider what types of data export they support. *Like Hr systems (such as ADP), CRM systems (such as SalesForce), Association Management Systems (such as Avectra), and other platforms.

Making sure your new LMS works for all devices

Posted by susan reuter on Tue, Feb 27, 2018

When switching your LMS, it may have compatibility issues with older browsers or operating systems. Use our infographic to help determine what your user base needs:

Making sure your new LMS works for your user base: Does the LMS work best in certain web browsers? Does the LMS require pop-ups to be enabled? Is the LMS Javascript enabled? Are LMS URLs listed as trusted sites? The best way to address browser requirements is to examine your user base. Are they part of a corporate network? YES: They will likely use the same or similar browsers and operating systems. NO: Work with your LMS provider to identify your user base. You may want to consider adding a notice for users about what browsers and features are supported. YES: Check LMS compatability: Check browser compatibility: Some corporations don't upgrade their platforms regularly and may be running old versions of browsers. Network firewall issues: There may be settings on that network's firewall that will need to be updated. This means providing the new LMS domains/IP addresses to the IT team responsible for that network.
