Columbia, MD – April 30, 2019. CommPartners, a leading provider of Learning Management Software has announced the launch of their new Certification Module as a component of its Elevate Learning Management System. The Certification Module allows organizations who utilize Elevate, to provide their communities a more holistic method for validating learning achievement over a period of time. Organizations who utilize Elevate as their LMS will now be able to provide online courses and other content that can immediately be applied towards a certification or re-certification within the same education platform.
The Certification Module allows administrators the ability to define eligibility prerequisites, earning requirements, duration and expiration. In addition, the module manages re-certification start periods and requirements, access eligibility, access costs, and defines required and elective courseware. Tracking of user progress keeps participants abreast of where they are in the process.
Richard Finstein, CEO of CommPartners stated: “We are thrilled to add certification to our Elevate LMS. It makes sense to have a single platform for a credentialing program and the eLearning content that contributes to that greater achievement.”
