ATD Demo Day: Find Your Next LMS

Government agencies are facing unprecedented financial pressures. Budget reductions, hiring freezes, and even the elimination of entire organizations have forced agencies to scrutinize every dollar. Yet agencies must still ensure their workforce remains trained and equipped to meet the evolving demands of public service.Many agencies continue to rely on legacy learning management system (LMS) contracts signed when budgets were more flexible. These often include steep licensing fees, costly add-ons, and unpredictable pricing models. As oversight tightens and agencies are asked to do more with less, many are asking: Is our current LMS worth the cost?Key budgetary concerns include:High annual costs that divert funds from mission-critical initiativesUnpredictable pricing structuresLimited scalability for evolving training needs and changing populationsOn-premise maintenance that can require significant IT resourcesMany commercial LMS platforms seem robust at first glance, but their pricing structures introduce long-term financial burdens. Constraining per-user pricing models makes forecasting difficult as training needs grow. Base pricing may appear reasonable, but essential features like compliance tracking, external training requests, and advanced reporting often come at a premium.Hidden costs include:Per-user pricing that scales unpredictablyAdditional fees for compliance and reportingAdditional costs to meet federal security regulationsIT resources required to maintain outdated systemsMany agencies still operate legacy, on-premise LMS platforms requiring extensive internal IT resources. These systems, often 10–15 years old, now demand costly consulting or larger internal teams to remain operational. This approach strains budgets, limits scalability, and introduces inefficiencies—challenges that could be solved with a cloud-based solution.A Smarter Approach: TotaraGov’s Cost-Conscious, FedRAMP Authorized LMSAgencies are now seeking cost-effective alternatives that prioritize security, reliability, and efficiency. TotaraGov is a purpose-built solution for government needs, eliminating many of the added costs associated with traditional LMS vendors.Key advantages of TotaraGov include:FedRAMP® Authorized and 508 Compliance at no extra costPredictable pricing for accurate budgetingShared services that reduce redundant spending and can help shorten the procurement processCloud infrastructure that eliminates costly IT overheadTotaraGov meets stringent federal security and compliance requirements.

Agencies can focus on workforce development without the burden of navigating costly add-ons.TotaraGov’s pricing model avoids unpredictable per-user costs, enabling agencies to scale training programs without budget uncertainty. This predictability helps ensure training remains accessible without financial roadblocks.Another key factor that sets TotaraGov apart is its support for interagency collaboration. Agencies with similar training needs can share resources via established shared service provider channels—reducing duplication and maximizing the value of training investments.The Future of Government Learning: Cost-Effective, Secure, and ScalableOutdated, expensive LMS contracts are no longer sustainable. Leaders must choose platforms that balance cost with quality. Choosing a platform that aligns with budget constraints while maintaining security and scalability is critical for long-term success.TotaraGov offers a secure, scalable, and budget-aligned alternative, enabling agencies to modernize learning, eliminate unnecessary costs, and support interagency collaboration—all without compromise.
