Our Newest Partner School
The National University of Singapore Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine has chosen LCMS+ as its curriculum management solution for medical education.
"LCMS+ was selected based on its comprehensive suite of functionalities and user-friendly features which best meet the school's requirements," says Ms. Ada Chia, Manager of Education Technology.
The School was established in 1905, forming the nucleus of what is today the National University of Singapore. Offering a clinically, professionally and intellectually rigorous course of study, the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine is widely viewed as one of the finest medical education programs in the world.
We are proud of this new partnership and welcome the NUS Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine to the family of LCMS+ schools!

FEATURE FOCUS New Course Report, Student Feedback
 A new report has been created that will let you view a list of all courses created within a date range that you define. Within the system this report is located at: CourseManagement -> Manage Courses -> New Course List The report will show a list of all courses created within a defined date range, sorted by Program, Date Created, and Course Name. You can link to the course screen from the report.
The exam system now has a new option for the end-of-exam optional student feedback screen. Exam administrators can now add a link to the exam key from the feedback screen. This allows students, at the administrator's discretion, to compare their answers to the key in order to be able to see and review the correct and incorrect responses for each question. This option is turned off by default.

Come Play In Our Sandbox!
The best way to see if a learning management system works for your institution is to try it for yourself. We are happy to give you a customized, full-featured account with LCMS+ so you can "play in our sandbox." Create users and groups, manage exams, schedule evaluations, anything you would do in your own system. We will provide a webinar for your team to take you through the basics of LCMS+ and we will track your usage of the system so we can respond quickly to any issues that may arise. The best part? If you like what you see and decide to license LCMS+, we can roll over all your data from this demo account. So your sandbox "play" can actually give you a leg up on implementation of your new system! Please contact us by email or at 919-923-0820 and we'll get you started. We look forward to having you over to play!
