Challenge

A renowned US firm in the Neuro-literacy domain sought a solution to bridge the gap between its existing platform and its Learning Management System (LMS), Absorb LMS. This was driven by limitations in Absorb's customization options and feature set, which hindered client's ability to provide a fully integrated and optimal learning experience for its users.
Users were often required to leave their learning environment and navigate to an external website, leading to overall inefficiency. This incoherent experience hampered course completion rates and reduced overall user satisfaction.

Solution

Vidyatech developed a custom integration platform to act as a ‘front-end web-based platform’ for Absorb LMS and several other web apps. The platform provided users with a cohesive experience, enabling them to access and complete courses directly from their dashboard. Key features included:

Authenticate users: Allow users to log in using their existing credentials, eliminating the need for separate logins on Absorb.

Single Sign-On (SSO): Once authenticated, users would seamlessly access Absorb courses directly from within the same dashboard without needing to visit the separate Absorb website.

Course Catalog Integration: The platform would integrate with Absorb's course catalog, allowing users to browse and enroll in relevant courses directly through the client’s dashboard.

Course Completion Tracking: The platform would track user progress within Absorb courses and reflect their completion status within the dashboard, providing a unified learning experience.

By involving the client at every stage of the development process and integrating feedback, Vidyatech ensured the platform was user-centric and optimized for efficiency.

Business Benefits and Impacts

Streamlined Experience: The new platform allows users to access and complete courses directly from client’s proprietary dashboard, resulting in improved engagement.

Operational Efficiency: Removing the need for multiple logins saved users time and enhanced platform navigation.

Centralized Learning Activities: Consolidating all learning functions in one place improved learning management for both users and administrators.
