WestNet LMS

What WestNet LMS is

WestNet LMS is a learning management system for employers, sold by WestNet Learning, whose listed address is in Grand Lake, Colorado. It is built for the L&D, HR and compliance teams that have to put a workforce through training and prove it happened. The home page says the platform "bridges the gap between traditional compliance and modern, AI-driven talent development", and that it is "Made in the U.S.A. with US-based support." WestNet says it has been trusted by 600+ organizations since 2008. The same page promises to give a workforce "the personalized growth they want and the regulatory tracking your business needs" from a single hub, and says the platform cuts through the clutter of fragmented training tools.

The pitch is consolidation. Instead of separate tools for authoring, assigning, tracking and reporting, WestNet presents one platform that, in its words, offers "Everything you need to build, deliver, track and prove training". The company describes a range from a single department to an enterprise-wide workforce, and its home page puts the scale at anything from 1,000 employees to 90,000+.

AI course creation

The headline feature is AI course creation. According to the home page, a training team can build SCORM and xAPI courses in minutes from existing documents and presentations, and the features page names PowerPoint-to-eLearning conversion specifically. For a company that already has its policies, procedures and onboarding decks in Office files, that means the first version of a course starts from material the team has on hand rather than a blank page.

The same AI tooling translates courses into 75 languages, which matters for employers with multilingual frontline staff or offices in several countries. Because the output is SCORM or xAPI, the courses come out in standard packages rather than a format tied to one tool.

Standards and content

WestNet supports SCORM, xAPI, AICC and cmi5, so courses bought from a content vendor or built in another tool can be loaded alongside the ones made in the platform. The features page also lists an LRS (learning record store) alongside the HRIS integrations.

For teams that would rather not build everything, WestNet can include a library of off-the-shelf eCourses. The library page describes 1000+ ready-to-use eCourses covering safety and OSHA, compliance, business skills and software training, delivered as microlearning videos, role-play scenarios and interactive content that can be assigned on day one. That makes it a training library as well as an LMS: a small HR team can roll out safety and compliance courses without commissioning any content.

Compliance and certification tracking

Compliance is the other half of the product. The compliance page says administrators can assign required training, automate recertification reminders and produce audit-ready records for OSHA, HIPAA, safety and regulatory programs, and the page description mentions OSHA, HIPAA and safety course libraries. The home page adds certification tracking with automated reminders and audit-ready reporting, so an expiring certification triggers a reminder rather than a scramble before an inspection. Because the off-the-shelf library already covers safety, OSHA and compliance topics, a team can pair ready-made courses with its own AI-built policy courses and track both in the same records.

Engagement, analytics and administration

To keep completion rates up, WestNet uses gamification: badges, points and learning leaderboards. On the reporting side, the features page lists advanced analytics and ready reports for training ROI and compliance audits, and role-based dashboards give different views to different users. Mobile learning lets employees take training on their phones, and custom branding lets the platform carry the company's own look.

Integrations

The integrations page says WestNet LMS connects to an organization's HRIS, content libraries and virtual classroom tools. Zoom and Microsoft Teams are supported for virtual classroom sessions, with the caveat that an active subscription with those providers is required. The page description names content partners including BizLibrary, HSI, LinkedIn Learning and Vado, which means a company already licensing one of those libraries can bring it into the same system it uses for its own courses.

Use cases

WestNet publishes pages for specific use cases: franchise training, employee onboarding, compliance training and corporate training, plus a guide to LMS use cases by industry. The corporate training page frames the product as a platform that combines compliance tracking with modern skills development. The company also maintains an LMS and eLearning glossary and an FAQ covering pricing, the free trial, supported standards, implementation time and administrator training.

Pricing and trial

WestNet publishes its prices, which its pricing page calls "Transparent, published pricing for teams of every size." It lists:

• Free plan: up to 10 users and 10 courses.
• Premier: from $427 a month for up to 500 users, where the monthly rate is the annual rate divided by 12.
• Enterprise: quoted on request, for large or multi-region deployments.

Every plan starts with a free 30-day trial with full features and no credit card required, and "Get Started" training for administrators is included. Demos can also be booked. The free plan and the trial are different things: the free plan is a tier capped at 10 users and 10 courses, while the 30-day trial runs with full features, so a team can try the whole product before choosing Premier or Enterprise.

Who it suits

WestNet LMS suits mid-sized and larger employers that need both regulated training and broader skills development in one place: a company tracking OSHA or HIPAA training and recertifications, a franchise network onboarding staff across locations, or an HR team that wants to turn existing slide decks into courses and translate them for a multilingual workforce. Buyers who want a US-built product with US-based support will find that stated plainly, and the off-the-shelf library and content partner integrations mean a team can start without building every course itself.

Very small teams can try the free plan, though its cap of 10 users and 10 courses makes it a starting point rather than a long-term home for a growing company. Organizations that want a self-serve course marketplace for selling to the public will find the product aimed at internal workforce training instead.
