About
What is an LMS?
An LMS or Learning Management System is a combination of technology and services used to deliver course material to students and to facilitate course work.
How are the DATs involved with the LMS?
The DAT group provides analysis, research, and working experience as system administrators and more to assist the System-wide LMS Initiative in determining how it can best help the campuses meet their teaching and learning objectives.
