Lectora User Conference
Las Vegas, NV
April 24-26
Share your Lectora expertise with others by starting a Lectora user group in
your city. There are already five local Lectora User Groups in Atlanta, Boston,
Cincinnati, New York City and Chicago. All five groups were founded by
Lectora users who were looking to build local networks with other users to
share ideas and techniques about Lectora and elearning.
Lectora user groups are organized and operated independently of the Trivantis
Corporation. While Trivantis wholeheartedly encourages the development of
local Lectora User Groups, it is not involved in the preparation, planning or
promotion of any local user group event.
Trivantis respects your privacy and will never share your information with
other parties. If you live in one of the areas listed below and are interested in
participating in your local Lectora user group, click the appropriate email
address below and send a message which includes your contact information.
If you are interested in forming a Lectora User Group, Trivantis can help. To
learn more and to get started, contact Jeff Harris, vice president of
marketing, at 877.929.0188 or send an email to: jbharris@trivantis.com.
Choosing the best LMS solution for your company can take months of
research and planning. You need to decide which features and functionality
are most important and will meet the changing needs of your organization.
You also have to consider the implications of installing the LMS on your
system such as:
• How long will the installation take?
• Will you need to buy a new server or
upgrade your existing one?
• Do you have the IT staff available to
install and support the LMS?
Answers to these questions can help you
determine whether installing software at your
location or hosting through a third-party
provider is right for you. If you have limited
IT support staff, are purchasing your first
LMS, or have previously experienced a long
LMS implementation process, a hosted
solution might be the best choice for you.
More and more companies are choosing hosted solutions for their elearning
and other enterprise applications. With 24/7 support, state-of-the-art
systems and monitoring, application hosting can save your organization
thousands of dollars in staffing, upgrades and support.
At Trivantis, our affordable CourseMill LMS is now available in both software
and hosted solutions. Whether you’re purchasing your first LMS or replacing
your current system, CourseMill may be just what you’re looking for.

sales executive for more information about our CourseMill learning
management solutions.
