training and educational records

3. History
In the early ’90s some Luther Seminary (St. Paul) faculty members
were struggling to retain students who didn’t have the funds or,
because of family obligations, couldn’t relocate to attend seminary.
Tom Walker knew there had to be some kind of tool that would
enable people to communicate with each other without being in the
same place at the same time
Learning management systems (LMS) also sometimes known as
Course management systems (CMS) have come a long way since
those early days.
