Making it Easier to Learn at the County
/You may not recognize it.
Almost everything about the County’s Learning Management System (LMS) just changed.
Launched this morning, the overhauled site looks more inviting and is a lot easier to use.
Those were two of the main goals in redesigning the site over the past few months, said Ciara Webb, a Senior Human Resources Analyst with the Department of Human Resources’ Employee Development division.
Check out the introductory video above on the newly redesigned site.
Webb said that in the past, employees have gone to the LMS because they needed to complete some type of training.
“Our goal is for employees to want to go into the LMS,” she said.
Among the aims of the site is to offer employees a broader range of resources and to even help change the way we approach learning.
“We’re focusing a lot more on opportunities for continuous learning,” Webb said.
A colorful geometric shaped graphic at the top of the new homepage will feature timely announcements and tips, inspirational quotes about learning, and other features.
Employees can also browse for classes or trainings by subject matter using a redesigned catalog. For example, you can search for “computer skills” or “supervisors” to find related opportunities.
