The use of the LMS system as a standalone instance looks like it’s coming to an end. Almost every implementation of the LMS today includes using BizX – maybe not as the source system of employee data, but at least holding enough to support the learning module. Clients so far have been welcome to this, as having BizX unlocks the potential of using other modules down the road. However, this brings up an interesting question – what do we do about external employees and contractors who need access to the LMS?
Do we begin storing external data in BizX? While this cause issues if we are using EC? What about SSO? Can we utilize the “sites” feature in LMS for them? These are just some of the questions clients face when exploring giving LMS access to externals.
In this blog we are going to explore three ways in which clients can bring external users into their LMS.
