Home / Development / Custom LMS

A learning platform shaped like your programme.

Two ways to get there. Start with Continuum Learn — our own member‑first LMS, ready to go and ours to adapt — or have us build one fully bespoke. Either way: cohorts, assessment, certification, SCORM and xAPI, your brand, your data.

Custom LMS platforms.
Adapt ours, or build yours.

Start from Continuum Learn — our own LMS, adaptable because we wrote it — or commission a fully bespoke build. SCORM, xAPI & cmi5, cohort delivery, certification and a Learning Record Store when you need real analytics.

When the big platforms stop fitting.

Moodle, TalentLMS and the rest are excellent — until your programme needs something they weren't built for.

01

You're paying for, and fighting, four separate SaaS tools to run one training programme.

02

Your enrolment, cohorts or pricing logic is too specific for a template to express.

03

You need the LMS to live inside your own brand and your own platform — not a vendor's subdomain.

04

You want real data on how people learn, not just course‑completion ticks.

What we build in.

The core of every learning platform, then whatever your programme actually needs.

01 / Courses
Course & content authoring
Structured courses, lessons, media and quizzes — authored in‑platform, with a content model that suits how you teach.
02 / Standards
SCORM, xAPI & cmi5
Import existing SCORM packages, and track richer activity with xAPI into a Learning Record Store for proper analytics.
03 / Enrolment
Cohorts & learning paths
Cohort‑based intakes, self‑paced tracks, prerequisites and custom enrolment rules — modelled on your real programme.
04 / Assessment
Assessment & certification
Quizzes, graded submissions, pass rules, certificates and automatic re‑certification reminders.
05 / Reporting
Progress & compliance reporting
Dashboards for learners, instructors and admins — plus the audit trail compliance teams need.
06 / Integration
HRIS, payments & SSO
Single sign‑on, auto‑enrolment from your HR system, and payment for paid courses — wired in directly.

How an LMS build runs.

The same five steps, mapped to a learning‑platform engagement.

01 / PLAN

Map the programme

We learn how your courses, cohorts and assessments actually work, and which existing content needs to come along.

02 / DESIGN

Content & learner model

Course structure, enrolment logic, the learner and instructor experience — prototyped and agreed.

03 / BUILD

Build & import content

We build the platform and bring in your SCORM/xAPI content, courses and learner records.

04 / LAUNCH

Pilot a cohort

We launch quietly with a pilot cohort, gather feedback, then open it up — with monitoring throughout.

05 / MAINTAIN

Iterate each term

New courses, new reports, new integrations — added on a retainer as your programme grows.

Standards‑friendly, durable tech.

We build to the e‑learning standards so your content stays portable, and on tools we can maintain for the long haul. Hosted by us or by you.

LMS questions.

What training teams ask before we begin.

Why build when Moodle or TalentLMS exist?

+

If a platform fits your programme, use it — we'll tell you so honestly. Custom makes sense when your enrolment, cohort or pricing logic is too specific for a template, when you're stitching several tools together, or when the LMS needs to live inside your own product.

Can we reuse our existing SCORM courses?

+

Yes. We import SCORM 1.2 and 2004 packages directly, and can layer xAPI on top to capture richer activity into a Learning Record Store for deeper analytics.

What's the difference between SCORM and xAPI here?

+

SCORM tracks formal courses inside the LMS — completions, scores, time. xAPI tracks learning experiences anywhere, including mobile and offline, into an LRS. We use SCORM for portability and xAPI where you want real insight into how people learn.

Will it handle paid courses and certificates?

+

Yes — payment, enrolment, graded assessment, certificates and automatic re‑certification reminders are all things we build in.

Can it sign people in from our existing systems?

+

Single sign‑on via SAML or your identity provider, and auto‑enrolment from your HR system, are standard requests we handle.
