What is LTI?

Learning Tools Interoperability (LTI) is a technical standard developed by 1EdTech. It enables the straightforward integration of various online (external) learning tools into a single central learning environment without the hassle of multiple logins or standalone platforms. LTI ensures that everything is accessible in one place, making it easier for both employers and employees to work with multiple external providers within their existing learning environment. For educators and organizations with a learning platform, LTI allows for the seamless integration of external content into onboarding, learning journeys, or compliance programs.

What is an LTI Connection?

An LTI connection is a standard that enables external learning tools to be directly integrated into your Learning Management System (LMS). This ensures users can access both internal and external content from one platform, without needing separate login credentials. Want to learn more about the benefits? Read our article on the advantages of LTI connections.

Benefits of an LTI Connection

An LTI connection elevates the learning content in your LMS, benefiting both your organization and your employees.

1. Simple Integration

Thanks to the standardization of LTI connections, you can quickly add external content or tools to your LMS. This means no time or money wasted on complex technical adjustments.

2. Broader and More Diverse Learning Content

An LTI connection allows you to easily add materials from external providers, such as high-quality courses, interactive tools, or industry-specific training to complement your existing offerings. This makes your e-learning environment more appealing to users.

3. Efficient Management

Updates and maintenance of external content are often handled directly by the provider, saving you time and resources. This lets you focus on what truly matters: creating valuable learning experiences.

4. Seamless User Experience

Users remain within one familiar platform, even when accessing external tools or content. No more separate login portals or confusing workflows—everything is integrated into your LMS.
