Choosing the right LMS is essential for efficiency, compliance, and learner experience. While Moodle and Laureate LMS are both widely used, they operate very differently. Here’s a clear comparison to help you decide. Moodle: Flexible but High-Maintenance Moodle is a free, open-source LMS known for its flexibility. Thousands of plugins and themes allow deep customisation, making it suitable for schools and universities with varied needs. However, the real cost of Moodle isn’t

Different sectors across Australian and international education use very different assessment systems. VET qualifications rely on competency-based assessment, while ELICOS, higher education, corporate training, and many theory-driven programs use marks-based grading. Laureate LMS is designed to support this diversity. During configuration, each provider selects one assessment model—competency-based or marks-based—and the platform is set up accordingly. This ensures every orga
