Does our team use our own product for ourselves?<\/p>\n<p>The answer is \u201cYes\u201d, but there is a certain specificity of use that we will talk about.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Myroslav_Botsula_%E2%80%93_CEO_Co-Founder_LMS_Collaborator_Founder_ElLab\"><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/myroslav.botsula\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Myroslav Botsula<\/a> \u2013 CEO &amp; Co-Founder LMS Collaborator, Founder El`Lab<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><em><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11379 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/1076_oooo.plus_.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"173\" height=\"173\" srcset=\"https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/1076_oooo.plus_.png 491w, https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/1076_oooo.plus_-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/1076_oooo.plus_-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 173px) 100vw, 173px\" \/>The staff of our team currently does not exceed 50 persons. Therefore, we do not have many business processes, as our customers with a large number of employees (from 100 to 20,000 users), to help which the LMS Collaborator platform is focused. At present, everything is somewhat simpler, but in matters related to information, accumulation and development of knowledge, certification, management by objectives, we apply our own product.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The main thing, to my mind, is the formation of the Knowledge Base.<\/em><br \/>\n<em>In LMS Collaborator, this functionality is the basis on which the ideology of the system is built. As business processes develop, we fill our platform with policies, rules, descriptions for our company and update them as needed. This becomes a material for training newcomers and improving each of us.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Some of our business processes require regular reports and checks. For example, it is a monthly check of software updates, compliance with cybersecurity requirements. LMS Collaborator functionality helps us organize and conduct these activities remotely and asynchronously, effectively saving everyone&#8217;s time..<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>In addition, we fill our Collaborator with training courses and other resources on Hard and Soft Skills that each of us can use to improve our professionalism.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>There are plans to introduce the process of \u201cpreservation and transfer of knowledge\u201d. This is when each team member, after external or independent learning in their area of activity, prepares a short \u201csynopsis\u201d of the most important things they have learned that have significantly improved their work. This type of summary is organized into a learning resource and added to the Knowledge Base. It is not easy, but we have been partially doing it for the second year and I have seen that it helps us to change and grow.<\/em><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_LMS_Collaborator_team_uses_its_product\"><\/span>How LMS Collaborator team uses its product<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Login_with_SSO_Single_sign-on\"><\/span>1. Login with SSO (Single sign-on)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>We are standing for the convenience and security of authorization, so SSO \u2013 a single sign-on technology \u2013 is implemented for all corporate systems.<\/p>\n<p><em>SSO does not require constant authentication of employees if they move from one system, service or application of the network to another. Employees are authenticated at only one point of entry into the system. After passing it, they get access to the sections and services open to them, that is, they do not need to re-enter credentials to open a new system.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>What is it for?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Remembering dozens of passwords is difficult, and it can also have a bad impact and consequences for the company&#8217;s information security. SSO technology helps to link all employee&#8217;s work accounts in corporate systems and thus simplify authorization.<\/p>\n<p>LMS Collaborator also supports single sign-on technology. Therefore, all our customers can set up SSO to their learning portal.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11766\" src=\"https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/screenshot_27-home.png\" alt=\"SSO LMS Collaborator\" width=\"1560\" height=\"880\" srcset=\"https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/screenshot_27-home.png 1560w, https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/screenshot_27-home-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/screenshot_27-home-1024x578.png 1024w, https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/screenshot_27-home-768x433.png 768w, https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/screenshot_27-home-1536x866.png 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1560px) 100vw, 1560px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Training_and_onboarding_of_employees\"><\/span>2. Training and onboarding of employees<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Like our clients, we use LMS Collaborator to train our employees. When a newcomer joins the company, he or she is immediately assigned a training course to get acquainted with LMS Collaborator, as well as activities related to their area of work. For example, Katya (LMS Collaborator content manager, whose articles you read in the blog) on her first working day got access to the courses on content creation and writing texts.<\/p>\n<p>We also support the knowledge of our employees. When interesting topics or ideas appear, we form training materials from them and assign them to our team. These can be specialized courses for general development and mandatory courses related to company policy. For example, our team is currently undergoing a training cycle on information security, and all training materials and activities on this topic are taken from the Knowledge Base on the LMS Collaborator portal.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11769\" src=\"https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2022-12-20_121317.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1785\" height=\"1436\" srcset=\"https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2022-12-20_121317.png 1785w, https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2022-12-20_121317-300x241.png 300w, https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2022-12-20_121317-1024x824.png 1024w, https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2022-12-20_121317-768x618.png 768w, https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2022-12-20_121317-1536x1236.png 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1785px) 100vw, 1785px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>When we conduct learning webinars or trainings, we always record them and create a training course from it. The last such webinar was an internal training on information security. After the training, the recording was available to all team members. Those who were unable to attend the webinar were assigned a task to review this recording on the LMS Collaborator portal.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Checklists_for_checking_compliance_with_processes\"><\/span>3. Checklists for checking compliance with processes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>We ensure that our employees comply with information security rules. Every month we have regular control to update the software, security systems, browser, etc. For this purpose, we use LMS Collaborator checklists. Each employee marks in the checklist the fact of compliance with the rule, and also adds screenshots to confirm it.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11786\" src=\"https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/screenshot_28-home-1.png\" alt=\"LMS Coolaborator checklists\" width=\"1303\" height=\"1127\" srcset=\"https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/screenshot_28-home-1.png 1303w, https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/screenshot_28-home-1-300x259.png 300w, https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/screenshot_28-home-1-1024x886.png 1024w, https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/screenshot_28-home-1-768x664.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1303px) 100vw, 1303px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_The_companys_knowledge_base\"><\/span>4.

When our employees take interesting external courses or attend a webinar, they share the most important points with the team. All the knowledge gained is recorded in the form of resources that are publicly available in the LMS Collaborator Knowledge Base. Everyone can view them and learn something useful for themselves.<\/p>\n<p>The Knowledge Base also contains our corporate library with books that our employees can read in their free time.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11772\" src=\"https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/screenshot_25home.png\" alt=\"LMS Coolaborator knowledge base\" width=\"1534\" height=\"917\" srcset=\"https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/screenshot_25home.png 1534w, https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/screenshot_25home-300x179.png 300w, https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/screenshot_25home-1024x612.png 1024w, https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/screenshot_25home-768x459.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1534px) 100vw, 1534px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In addition to the corporate knowledge base, we also actively maintain our wiki encyclopedia.

Planning MBO objectives<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>MBO is one of the most effective catalysts for business development. At the beginning of each year, each manager and his team define strategic business goals for the year and make a plan to achieve them. This is an important process that requires detailed discussion, time for planning and coordination.<\/p>\n<p>To work with OKR, we use the goal management functionality in LMS Collaborator. It helps us manage our goals, as well as organize the processes of monitoring and evaluation. Everything is convenient, clear and in one place. Each employee has access to view the goals of colleagues, which allows everyone to see the result of joint work.<\/p>\n<p>All objectives are gathered in a tree. Each of them is assigned a supervisor who monitors its implementation and evaluates the result. Setting KPIs helps to make a plan for achieving the goal, and weighting helps to prioritize the implementation.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11775\" src=\"https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2022-07-22_124647.png\" alt=\"LMS Collaborator MBO\" width=\"1890\" height=\"2041\" srcset=\"https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2022-07-22_124647.png 1890w, https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2022-07-22_124647-278x300.png 278w, https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2022-07-22_124647-948x1024.png 948w, https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2022-07-22_124647-768x829.png 768w, https:\/\/collaborator.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2022-07-22_124647-1422x1536.png 1422w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1890px) 100vw, 1890px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span>Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Now you know how our LMS Collaborator team uses its own product.

This small part of the features that we can effectively use in our small team gives the basis for further growth. And when we become as big as our customers, we will be able to use all the other features of LMS Collaborator on our own experience.<\/p>\n<p>For now, we listen carefully to our customers, gain new experience together with them and do everything to ensure that our platform effectively helps their business. At the end of 2022, even despite all the difficulties that the occupying country has created for all of us, about 100 companies in Ukraine are working with us.
