"Path LMS is extremely user-friendly. You can come in as an admin and be effective without needing to know HTML, CSS, or that kind of thing. Even if something doesn’t appear to be possible [in Path LMS], there is usually a way to make it happen with the support of the team."

From in-person to on-demand: ACOFP’s digital learning evolution via Path LMS

Using Path LMS, ACOFP was able to master better practices and use more video to provide CME to their members throughout the pandemic.

Challenge & Solution

When the COVID-19 pandemic halted in-person meetings, ACOFP needed a way to continue offering CME. Osteopathy is very hands-on, involving physical stretching and manipulation of the patient. Particularly for the more complex procedures, ACOFP had not created or offered online courses before.

Using Path LMS, ACOFP was able to master better practices and use more video to provide CME to their members throughout the pandemic. ACOFP shifted their focus to center all their learning content on Path LMS, recording all presentations and panels for members. Doing so helped them begin to leverage video in other ways; they started pre-recording lectures that did not require interaction and sent film crews to subject matter experts to record sophisticated video training of the more complex osteopathic techniques.

Results

By fully leveraging Path LMS, ACOFP saw increased engagement and found video-based learning to be the most effective format for complex clinical training. Their streamlined, intuitive platform now supports a growing video library, easy user access with single sign-on, and minimal need for tech support.

With a collection of 150 videos and quizzes (and growing), ACOFP will be giving program directors additional control and visibility to track learners’ progress via the Path LMS Teams feature. ACOFP continues to expand their offerings by creating foundational courses for students and residents, enabling progress tracking, and even collaborating with other organizations on joint programs, like a shared diabetes course with the Endocrine Society
