Benefits of creative names for learning management systems

We believe in the power of names and branding,  here are some great reasons why a great name matters for an LMS:

1. Participant awareness -having a creative and catch LMS name can help your target audience become aware of your learning vision
2. Expresses the value organizations place in their people – a well named LMS should emphasis the outcomes and benefits for participants rather than a descriptor about courses
3. Helps training participants rely on the tool – a strong name can create confidence in your learning platform
4. Increase culture and morale – expressing creativity can help inspire other team members to apply a fresh perspective to their own work and collegial relationships
