Adjutans Learning Management System User's Guide
The Luminous Learning Management System has been designed as a tool to provide quality service helping job seekers in Ontario to improve their job search skills and fulfill their employment goals. It offers free access to training resources on line. It was created to permit Employment Ontario partner employment services offices to enhance and extend their job-search skills training by offering video training on line and on demand. The software was developed by the Software Peer Group of ITO2.0, itself an employment services branch of the Youth Services Bureau of Ottawa, and is being made available as free software for the benefit of the Ontario job seekers.
