The 2017 Summer Release of Meridian Global LMS adds seamless integration with OpenSesame's eLearning Marketplace, exciting new gamification capabilities and effortless efficiency advancements
RESTON, VA--(Marketwired - June 23, 2017) - Meridian Knowledge Solutions, a leading learning management system (LMS) provider, today announced the availability of Meridian Global LMSĀ® version 17.2. With the newest release of its flagship learning management product, Meridian makes the jobs of LMS administrators and instructors easier.
Meridian Global LMS 17.2 streamlines the way users find and manage content, giving learners access to more items from the learning catalog, and providing a tool for increasing user engagement.
"Providing a great experience for administrators and instructors is just as important as it is for learners. In this release, we've introduced more tools to allow administrators to grow and manage their learning catalog and increase engagement with learners," says Geoff Perry, Chief Product Officer.
Meridian Global LMSĀ® 17.2 release includes:
Navigation Enhancements: Navigate with confidence. Meridian Global 17.2 delivers an improved navigation experience, allowing easier, more direct ways to access necessary functionality.
Classroom Section Updates: Designed with Administrators and Instructors in mind, classroom section updates improve frequently used workflows, easing the burden on your time and resources.
Extended Permission Scope
Let your LMS work for you with extended permission scope. Administrators can more effectively delegate administration and increase a user's influence in the system.
Administrators now have the option to assign individual "scope of control" permissions to users, allowing for more specificity in designating which users a particular administrator can see in Manage Users and Manage Enrollment.
Gamification
Meridian Global 17.2 delivers a new tool, Gamification, designed to spark user engagement and motivation -- Administrators have the configurable option to assign points to content items and create badges to be awarded to users based on point accumulation. There is also an optional leaderboard, allowing users to view their progress as well as that of their colleagues.
OpenSesame Integration
The OpenSesame eLearning Marketplace is now integrated with the Meridian Global Learning Management System, making it easier than ever to build your library of online content. Choose from more than 20,000 courses in a variety disciplines and expand your users' professional skills in a seamless, comprehensive learning experience.
Find the courses you want, choose the number of seats you need, and let Meridian Global LMS import the courses for you. No more uploading courses one at a time.
