How do I use LMS (learning management system) in Mindmatrix?

This article will cover the new Learning Management System feature available through Mindmatrix. This new system will allow you and your team to build new and engaging content (such as print, web, certifications, etc) that can be distributed through the LMS program.

1. Training Widget (Optional)

On your dashboard, you will notice a new widget at the bottom for your eLearning. If you do not have this widget and would like to turn it on, please email support@mindmatrix.net.

This widget will show you courses available to take and display your progress. In this overview, you can see the current courses the user is enrolled in and taking, as well as any passed exams. The Recommended Training section gives you some of the newest and most relevant courses available to you.

To enable this new feature, please email support@mindmatrix.net

2. Courses

To navigate to the currently available courses or edit and create new ones, go to Setup > Learning Management > Courses

These courses allow you to take individual eLearning exams and certifications while also providing the option to create new ones.

When creating a new course, enter your course name and any additional information you'd like to include, such as length of time available, filters, and tags. Once you have completed the necessary info, select "Next". Under the settings step, you have the option to upload a new image thumbnail for your course or use a previously uploaded image.

Click the "Finish" button to save your settings, and to proceed to the course set up page. Here you have the ability to add new chapters and subchapters. Once you have entered values for chapter names and descriptions, you will be shown the option to add content ranging from personalized PDFs to eBooks and learning videos. 

You can also add banner images and set your preferences for course colors. Once you have added the appropriate assets, click "Continue" and then select "Yes" when asked to save your course.

Administrators can fill in information in the FAQs for end users to view about the course. Add additional information or resources for where the users can go for additional help and support.

You will be taken back to the courses page where you can now see all the created courses. In this example, we can see that the new "CourseExample" course is listed first with options to copy, edit, or delete your course. Using the copy feature, you can create new updated versions.

The edit feature allows you to change, remove or add content to your subchapters. The trash icon allows you to delete your previously created courses.

Once your course is published, make sure you've shared it to your users and/or groups that should get access under Views > Permissions.

Your users will be able to take the course on the course catalog page or through the training widget on the dashboard if that is enabled. (See 1. Training Widget above)

Your end users will see a view of the available courses for them to take in order to learn the system itself.

3. Curriculum

The curriculum section allows you to create different course paths for your users, using assets, videos and more!  The process of creating curriculum is very similar to the course creation, but gives you additional options for adding content such as whole courses into subchapters. Select the "Create" button to create a new curriculum.

You can then enter your curriculum name as well as the description and additional filters. Like the course creation, you have the option to use a an image thumbnail. Once you have finished, click the "Finish" button and you will be taken to the curriculum editor.

Like the course creation page, this enables you to create step by step instructions for your users to go through in order to complete eLearning paths that allow a deeper understanding of the path.

Once complete, click "Publish" and make sure to give sharing permissions to the users or groups you'd like to have access to the curriculum.

The end users will be able to access the curriculum from the course catalog as well.

If you have any additional questions, please reach out to support@mindmatrix.net or your account consultant.
