Avoid overpaying for the wrong LMS.

If you deliver online training for your staff & volunteers then you'll need an LMS connected to your website, so that they can sign in and access online trainings. Choosing the wrong LMS can mean paying for unnecessary features and delivering a buggy learning experience that people don't want to use. Don't do it!

  • Avoid hidden costs
  • Avoid buggy tech
  • Avoid doing it twice

Mouse-Only Navigation
Your website has a navigation menu that cannot be accessed using a keyboard. This makes it difficult or impossible for users with mobility impairments to navigate.
Lack of Alt Text
Images on your eLearning platform or website lack alternative text descriptions. This prevents users who rely on screen readers from understanding the content.
Insufficient Color Contrast
There is text on your site with poor contrast against its background. This makes it hard for users with visual impairments to read the content.
No Captions for Videos
Your educational videos lack closed captions or transcripts. This excludes individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing from accessing the information.
Broken Links
Some links and buttons are not set up correctly or are not clearly labeled. This creates barriers for users who rely on assistive technologies.
Dynamic content without updates
You have form validation messages or error notifications that aren't set up to notify assistive technologies. This leaves users unaware of changes.

Frequently asked questions

What is an LMS and why do I need one?

A Learning Management System (LMS) is a software platform designed to manage, deliver, and track online training and educational programs. It centralizes all your learning content and allows you to create, distribute, and monitor eLearning activities efficiently.

An LMS is essential for streamlining the learning process, ensuring consistent delivery of content, tracking learner progress, and providing valuable data insights to improve your training programs and educational courses.

Why would I need help selecting an LMS - in what ways do they differ?

Selecting the right LMS can be challenging due to the wide variety of options available, each with different features, capabilities, and pricing models. LMS platforms can differ in terms of user interface, customization options, scalability, integrations with other systems, support services, and specific functionalities like reporting, gamification, or mobile compatibility.

Here are some examples of how this might play out in practice:

Example 1: Your organization needs an LMS that integrates seamlessly with your existing HR and payroll systems to track employee training progress and update records automatically. Some LMS platforms offer robust integration capabilities, while others might require custom development. Our expertise ensures you choose an LMS that minimizes integration challenges and maximizes efficiency.

Example 2: If your training programs rely heavily on interactive and multimedia content, you need an LMS that supports rich media formats and provides tools for creating engaging learning experiences. Some LMS platforms excel in offering advanced content creation and management features, whereas others might have limited multimedia support. We help you find an LMS that enhances the learner experience and meets your content requirements.

What's your process for determining which LMS is right for my organization?

Our process for selecting the right LMS begins with a thorough assessment of your organization's training needs, goals, and existing infrastructure. We then identify key requirements, such as features, scalability, budget, and integration capabilities.

After that, we shortlist suitable LMS options and conduct demos or trials to evaluate their performance. Finally, we provide you with a detailed recommendation and assist in the implementation and customization of the chosen LMS to ensure it perfectly fits your organization’s needs.

Do you offer discounts for not-for-profit organizations?

Yes, we offer special pricing options for not-for-profit organizations. We understand the unique budget constraints and funding challenges that not-for-profits face, and are committed to supporting organizations contributing positively to society.

By working with us, you can access quality eTraining solutions tailored to your needs while benefiting from reduced rates that help maximize your impact.

Hi, we're Matt & Vanessa

We learned eLearning the hard way, so you don’t have to.

We once sat on the client side of eLearning projects which went terribly wrong. Budgets were blown, time was lost and eLearning developers weren't working with us.

We ended up with a product that wasn’t needed and had to spend more money to fix it.

Afterward, we explored the project pain points and worked to define what a better process should look like.

Nobody could offer us what we needed, so we founded Simple Movement to ensure that nobody ever has to experience what we did!

That was all the way back in 2015. Since then, we've been helping organizations just like yours to launch online education and training that engages learners and delivers on business KPIs, without breaking the bank.

Hi, we're Matt & Vanessa

We make accessibility simple, so you can focus on what matters.

We understand the complexities of accessibility and compliance in digital projects.

With years of experience facing these problems ourselves, we can help you get to the other side quickly, avoiding common pitfalls and ensuring quality without overspending.

Unlike others who treat accessibility as a checklist, we’re passionate about it. We’ve worked extensively with Deaf and Hard of Hearing communities, as well as individuals with physical and developmental disabilities, giving us an intimate understanding of their needs and how to design for them.

Our goal is to simplify the process for you, reducing your legal risk while helping you achieve your business objectives both engaging and accessible digital solutions.
