Using the San José State Learning Management System (LMS) by Synaptis, you are now able to take CMS training right from your computer. There will still be a number of classes that require a hands-on, instructor-led class, but some of the basics will be available here. We recommend that you complete these courses on a PC. If you do not have access to a PC, please contact the CMS Training Team, and we can arrange some time for you to complete the desired courses in one of our training rooms.
Important: Online classes require a flash player for viewing. We recommend the free Macromedia Flash Player.
You must have administrator access to your PC in order to download this. Please contact your local tech support if you are unable to download the software. Once this is installed, you can proceed to the LMS.
