SS16115 eLearning Learning Management System

KCC procured an E-learning LMS and module content in 2012. We have now entered into the final year of this contract so are required to re-tender for this provision through a market engagement activity.

KCC have been utilising the eLearning Learning Management System since April 2013. Supported by CMT, eLearning is our default method of learning and development for KCC due to its cost effectiveness.

In the last 3 years we have moved from 65% of development being delivered classroom based to 70% being delivered via eLearning, this had led to a per training cost reduction of 32%.
