CLO Dashboard™ fills an important gap where learning management systems (LMS) fall short in providing an on-demand solution for aggregate reporting, strategy alignment, project management, correlation, and basic learning measurement. The system incorporates a unique blend of business intelligence, data mining and warehousing, and performance management to complement reporting and governance requirements of learning and human resource organizations.

Top 3 problems that CLO Dashboard™ solves
- Demonstrating real business impact to your stakeholders is hard
- LMS tools are wonderfully data rich, but terribly information poor
- Management of all learning-related projects is fragmented and at best imprecise
We’re 20 years into the learning management system era, and still most LMS, LCMS and similar tools rarely give their users strategic insight to the health of their learning strategies, or show alignment with the goals of the businesses they support. Learning will only truly be valued as a strategic partner by stakeholders when it can prove with hard numbers the value it adds to generating successful business outcomes.
Most LMSes can track very detailed amounts of data on who took what, when, and how. But quickly getting strategic information OUT of these tools is often a big time and resource drain. 2007 research by Expertus and TrainingOutsourcing.com showed that a majority of learning executives were now using expensive workarounds – custom report-writing FTE, homegrown Excel applications, and more - to pull needed information from their LMS.
Workarounds are costly, don’t scale, and still usually produce time-delayed information. LMSes aren’t going away, but it’s no longer acceptable for decision makers not to always know the status of their initiatives.
Most large learning units handle dozens of content and curricula development projects per year, often in addition to updates and upgrades to their technology platforms and other administrative projects. While tools like MS Project are great for mapping out individual projects, it’s much more expensive to aggregate status information across an entire learning project portfolio, and LMS-type tools offer no visibility into this type of information.
Zeroed-In offers two software dashboard solutions, each wrapped with implementation services to guide you through every step of the process.
CLO Dashboard™ features dynamic business scorecards that incorporate strategy, monitoring, and measurement of your goals, objectives, key indicators, and performance tasks.
LMS Dashboard™ offers a direct view into your scorecards and key measures. This solution directly connect users to the specific learning metrics they want to monitor and manage, without requiring linkage to higher level objectives and goals.
Both solutions also aggregate, manage and monitor all your learning function projects – content development, procurements, technology platform upgrades, and more.
- Your learning strategy and initiatives are captured through an easy to use framework that aligns your goals with enabling strategies. These objective-level strategies must be accomplished for your strategy to be successful.
- Our strategy process defines your key learning indicators and measures of progress. These key measures are automatically collected from your LMS, LCMS, HR, or other business system.
- Using targets defined for each key measure, CLO Dashboard aggregates and calculates the health of your initiatives to report progress and potential risks.
- Overall work effort required to execute the strategy and influence your key measures is managed and monitored in a centralized and systematic manner.
