Forum: Navigate 1.3.1 Discussing the LMS and CMS

A Course Management System (CMS) is more streamlined and focused.  Instead of a larger program the system focuses upon eLearning and instructor lead instruction. Often these are more effectively used for training rather than specific long term knowledge gain.

A Learning Management System (LMS) includes the Course Management System and focuses upon the larger context of eLearning and the connections between the courses.

Literature online suggests that a LMS is more versatile and has the benefits of the CMS, but also includes the potential for growth and development.
