Frequently asked questions

Absolutely. Effective standardization means creating repeatable workflows and universal templates while configuring them for regional requirements. Think of it as standardizing the operating system, not the applications. Regional teams follow the same scheduling, communication, and reporting processes but customize content, languages, and compliance requirements to their markets.

A Training Management System that is built to integrate with all your different regional systems standardizes course planning with flexible Course Templates and centralizes reporting because all of your data is in one platform. Administrate is the only Training Management System that is built with the intention of integrating in to all other business systems.

Most enterprises achieve initial standardization within 90 days using a phased approach. Start by documenting current workflows, identifying common processes across regions, and establishing universal templates. The key is balancing global consistency with regional flexibility—standardize the framework while allowing local teams to adapt delivery methods to their specific needs.

A TMS does what an LMS can not: standardize the use of disparate systems in use around the world in order to ensure all regions are abiding by best practices, providing consistent reporting, adhering to compliance standards, and pooling instructors to optimize utilization.

Establish a single source of truth by connecting all systems (LMS, HRIS, ERP) through real-time data synchronization. Standardized data fields, automated workflows, and unified reporting eliminate manual data entry errors. This creates one data model across the enterprise, enabling accurate forecasting and ROI measurement that wasn't possible with siloed systems.

Administrate is most useful for enterprise training teams that train 5,000+ learners a year. Teams that need to standardize training, such as the result of mergers and acquisitions, growing portfolios of business, or expanding global reach also find Administrate invaluable. Teams that sell training can make use of our unique training sales workflows.
