At the core of an association LMS are tools for managing courses, webinars, and learning paths. This includes content hosting, scheduling, assessments, and progress tracking across individual learners and cohorts.
Support for continuing education units (CEUs), contact hours, or credit types is critical for many associations. The LMS should automatically calculate, track, and report credits earned, reducing administrative burden and ensuring compliance with industry or regulatory standards.
Certification and credential management features are also key. These may include eligibility rules, exams, renewals, expiration tracking, and automated reminders to help learners maintain their credentials.
Finally, strong reporting and integration capabilities are essential. Associations need visibility into learner engagement, completion rates, and revenue, while seamless integration with an AMS ensures consistent member data, pricing rules, and access permissions.
