Competency Based Learning Management System

Competency based learning management goes beyond a traditional LMS. Centranum connects learning directly to competencies, development plans, and performance. Whether you already have an LMS or need built-in training management, Centranum ensures every learning activity is aligned to workforce capability needs.

Why Competency-Linked Learning Matters

Most LMS platforms manage courses — but they don’t tell you if training closes a skills gap. Centranum learning and development software makes that link explicit by embedding learning into your competency and capability framework.

  • Map courses and resources directly to competencies.

  • Ensure employee development planning activities address role requirements and organizational priorities.

  • Provide staff and managers with a clear view of progress against competency gaps.

  • LMS Integration – import courses from external LMS platforms — Centranum becomes the competency lens for what’s already available.
  • Rich metadata (competency links, provider, costs, prerequisites) makes searching simple.

FAQs

How is competency-linked learning different from a traditional LMS?

Traditional LMS platforms focus mainly on course delivery and tracking. Competency-linked learning ties every resource and training activity directly to defined competencies, so development plans are targeted and measurable against workforce capability gaps.

Can we still integrate our existing LMS with Centranum?

Yes. Centranum can act as your skills and competency hub while connecting with your existing LMS. The Learning Resource Catalogue allows you to import course listings, track completions, and link them to competencies without duplicating systems.

How does the system recommend learning resources to staff?

Learning resources are tagged to competencies. When a gap is identified through assessments or reviews, the system suggests relevant courses, on-the-job activities, or materials — streamlining development planning.

Can managers track the effectiveness of learning activities?

Yes. Centranum provides reporting that links completed learning directly to competency improvements, showing whether training has closed gaps and supported compliance requirements.

Does the platform support informal or on-the-job learning?

Absolutely. Alongside formal training, staff can log experiential and social learning activities within their development plans. This aligns with the 70:20:10 development model and captures a complete picture of growth.

How does this help with compliance or certification programs?

Because competencies, credentials, and learning resources are integrated, you can show auditors not just that training was completed, but that it addressed required competencies — with audit-ready evidence at both staff and organizational levels.
