We’re rolling out our new LMS across 11 countries and 5 business units.
What strategies or features helped you successfully launch a global LMS without too much chaos?
Dealing with time zones, languages, and different compliance rules – any advice from those who’ve done it?
We used language fallback and auto captions. Even if a course wasn’t fully localized, learners could follow along easily.
Plus, it auto-detected user location for the right version – smooth for globals.
Make sure your HRIS and SSO integrations are live and tested before rollout. No exceptions.
Sync issues caused the most headaches in our first try.
We created time zone-specific learning paths. India teams got early access content, US teams followed later,much smoother delivery.
Avoided everyone trying to access at once.
We planned two go-lives: a soft internal pilot and then a wider launch. It helped us identify and fix issues early.
Tested with one country first before rolling out everywhere.
Region-based roles helped us maintain compliance. We restricted certain features and reports to just the relevant markets.
Kept data separate where needed for privacy laws.
Having local champions made all the difference. We appointed a training ambassador for each region, which cut support tickets significantly.
They handled local questions and got buy-in from their teams early on.
