				<title>Learning Management Systems (LMS) for Associations - A Report &amp; Audio Interview</title>
				<link>http://blog.avilar.com/index.cfm/2009/12/30/Learning-Management-Systems-LMS-for-Associations--A-Report--Audio-Interview</link>
				<description>
				
				Earlier this year, Avilar was highlighted in a report published by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.tagoras.com&quot; target=&gt;Tagoras&lt;/a&gt; called Association Learning Management Systems. This report takes a detailed look at the sometimes unique features and capabilities typically needed by associations in order to provide successful learning management programs. This report compares and contrasts a handful of different learning management systems, including Avilar&apos;s own &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.avilar.com/products/lms.html&quot; target=&gt;WebMentor LMS&lt;/a&gt;, which have been shown to support the unique requirements of associations. You can learn more about and purchase the Association LMSes report at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.tagoras.com/catalog/association-lms/&quot; target=&gt;http://www.tagoras.com/catalog/association-lms/&lt;/a&gt;. 

Want some free info?

To follow up on this already valuable report, Tagoras conducted an interview with Avilar&apos;s CEO and co-founder Tom Grobicki to gather his insights and hear his perspectives on a range of substantive topics relevant to eLearning, training, and associations. The 12-minute audio interview is well worth listening to if you&apos;re considering a new learning management system. 

Listen to it now for free at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.tagoras.com/2009/12/28/association-lms-avilar/&quot; target=&gt;http://www.tagoras.com/2009/12/28/association-lms-avilar/&lt;/a&gt;

Are you currently using or looking for a LMS for your association? What features and capabilities matter most to you?
