A learning management system (LMS) software platform organizes and distributes educational information to learners. It offers resources for developing, delivering, tracking, and reporting courses. Schools and universities can use an LMS to offer online courses and be utilized by organizations to train and educate their workforce.
On the other hand, e-learning software describes any program that gives students access to educational material online. Online courses, virtual classrooms, video lectures, interactive simulations, and other features can all be found in e-learning software. While e-learning software is a more general word that can apply to any software application used for online learning, an LMS is specifically made to manage and distribute educational content.
