SumTotal® Systems, Inc. signed a contract to provide the University of California with TotalLMS™, a learning management system (LMS) that will host the reporting, tracking and delivery of compliance training for 170,000 faculty and staff located across the university’s 10 campuses. Along with the LMS, the University of California has purchased SumTotal’s software for creating training content, TotalLCMS™.
The university has used a variety of training management systems, either provided by other vendors or built in-house, to track and store training records. However, UC officials say that until purchasing the SumTotal platform, no one system has had the scale to host online training events, or manage the data to meet the university’s ever-increasing, systemwide compliance training needs.
Additionally, given the university’s decentralized, multi-location organizational structure, UC has had no easy way to exchange data electronically between local campuses and the University of California Office of the President (UCOP). UC officials believe the SumTotal LMS will also provide the university with an efficient and cost-effective system for reporting on compliance and auditing requirements, and that it will also give UC campuses the means to manage their online and instructor-led training.
“We believe that SumTotal Systems will provide the University of California with one LMS that can not only scale to meet all the university’s needs but also be universally available to faculty and staff regardless of their physical location,” said Steve O’Neill, senior director of Hosting Services for SumTotal. “With our hosting services in place, the university’s internal IT staff won’t have to spend time learning how to run and maintain TotalLMS, which we feel will speed up the implementation of our LMS across the University of California system.”
