ManagerSite is an area of the LMS intended specifically for an organization's managers. It eliminates the
need to generate and distribute reports to direct and up-line managers.
Monitoring Employee Activity
ManagerSite provides easy access to the information managers need to stay on top of their employees’ development, including employee training history, assignments, and compliance status.
I manage the Legal Staff at my firm, and I really
needed to see how much and what kind of training
my employees were participating in. ManagerSite
allows me to do just that without bothering with
cumbersome reports. I can check employees upcoming
training events anytime anyplace even on my
phone.
Legal Manager
Assigning Training
ManagerSite allows managers to assign training to their employees and track their progress.
We developed some curriculum for my practice
area, and I really wanted everyone from my team
to watch the videos. I was able to assign the
videos to my team and view their progress very
easily.

Performance Reviews
ManagerSite provides essential information for preparing for performance reviews.
I meet with each of my employees annually to
review their learning history and plot a
course for professional development. ManagerSite
makes it easy for me to retrieve their
learning achievements, including the courses
and plans they
completed.

ClientSite is a client-facing learning portal used by law firms to provide
online learning content to their clients.
Exhibits is a learning content library, made for law firms by Profiscience.
This extension includes 200+ micro-learning videos designed specifically for
attorneys and staff. Each video introduces the best practice by presenting a
situation your firm is likely to encounter. Best of all, each video is only
1 to 2 minutes long.
Topics
- Security Awareness
- Microsoft Word
- Microsoft Excel
- Microsoft PowerPoint
- Microsoft Outlook
Security Awareness
Protecting your Firm's data is a top priority. Employees are often the biggest risk to data security. Exhibits includes security awareness videos to help employees understand the importance of and best strategies for protecting data.
Our attorneys appreciated that the security awareness videos were set in the context of a law firm with situations they could relate
too.
Director of Security
Improving Efficiency
An attorney's time is valuable, and getting them to the training room is almost impossible. That's why the videos in Exhibits are short and to the point.
I’ve always wondered why spell check doesn’t always find all of the misspelled words in my documents. Now I understand why and I know how to fix
it.

Tech Tips
Exhibits includes dozens of short and informal videos, ideally suited for inclusion in Firm-internal newsletters.
Every few weeks we send an IT newsletter to all employees, sharing information about what's new and what's coming soon.
We wanted an easy way to include a tech tip in each newsletter. With Exhibits, we can pick from topics ranging from security awareness to printing in Excel, or scheduling meetings in
Outlook.

Shareable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM) is
an open standard that defines how learning content and
learning management systems communicate with each other.
ScormFly makes it easy to convert media files into a SCORM
compliant format so that playback can be tracked by
UniversitySite for compliance purposes. In addition,
ScormFly includes the following features:
CLE/CPD Compliance
ScormFly is frequently used for compliance videos because it can keep track of whether or not users watch the entire video, and it can pause periodically during playback to ensure users are present and attentive.
Our firm sponsors in-house CLE Programs
for our attorneys and clients. Usually,
one or more of our attorneys give a lecture
on matters directly related to the practice
of law, professional conduct, or ethical
obligations. For several years, we have
recorded these lectures. With ScormFly, we
are able to convert the recordings into a
format that is mobile compatible, track
viewer progress, and award CLE
credits.
CLE Coordinator
Webinars
Recorded webinars can be converted through ScormFly and shared on a variety of platforms.
We conduct internal webinars on various topics.
The webinars are easily recorded, but the video
files were too large to share via email, and it’s
nearly impossible to generate a report of who
watched them. These problems were solved by
loading the recordings into ScormFly, and then
publishing them for sharing and tracking
purposes in
UniversitySite.
Manager of Technology
Mobile learning
ScormFly videos can be viewed not only on a desktop or laptop but also on iPad, iPhone, tablets, Android, etc.
Employees want to be able to view
training videos on their mobile
devices. We load them into ScormFly
and it converts them into mobile
compatible videos. Employees can
start videos at the office, and
if they're interrupted, they can
resume playback later –even from
a mobile
device.
Manager, Learning and Development
Saving time
Because ScormFly supports the ability to adjust the playback rate, users can watch videos in less time. Automatic bookmarking allows users to pick up where they left off. If the video is broken up into chapters, users can jump to a specific part of the video.
Shortly after publishing our first
video with ScormFly, we started
getting feedback that viewers
really appreciated the ability
to speed up the playback rate.
Some users felt that they could
save time and be more productive
while others found the videos to
be more engaging and better able
to hold their
attention.
Director of Professional Development
PowerPoint synchronization
No need to present just the speaker or just the slideshow: ScormFly lets you synchronize the video of the presentation with the PowerPoint slides. The user can view the presentation and the slides side-by-side or focus on one or the other while they’re watching.
We use our video conferencing
system to record live
presentations, but users
complained that they couldn’t
read the PowerPoint slides
that were projected on the
screen behind the speaker, so
we started uploading the video
recordings into ScormFly where
we can synchronize the PowerPoint
slides to playback alongside the
video. It’s a little bit of extra
work, but it’s worth it because the
product we deliver to our users is
so much
better.

Practising Law Institute (PLI) is a nonprofit learning organization dedicated to keeping
attorneys and other professionals at the forefront of knowledge and expertise. This
extension provides the ability to leverage PLI's live seminars, live webcasts, and
on-demand web programs inside UniversitySite for attorney development and compliance.

Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML, pronounced sam-el) is an open standard
for exchanging authentication and authorization data between enterprises and service
providers.
Single Sign-On is available for UniversitySite for free using a proprietary
solution, however, for added security and peace of mind, Profiscience recommends
purchasing the SAML-based Single Sign-on Extension which is compatible with many SAML
identity providers including ADFS, Azure AD, Okta, and OneLogin.
The SharePoint Extension is a set of web parts for Microsoft SharePoint that enables many of
UniversitySite's features to be embedded into SharePoint.
SharePoint as an LMS
The SharePoint Extension enables SharePoint to function as a learning and development
platform by pushing many of UniversitySite’s features into your SharePoint environment.
Our intranet is built on SharePoint, so our
users are already familiar with its look
and feel. Our strategy for new apps is to
embed them in SharePoint whenever possible.
UniversitySite's integration with SharePoint
allowed us to create a seamless environment
for our
employees.
SharePoint Administrator
Providing learning resources where users expect to find them
The SharePoint Extension surfaces learning opportunities throughout SharePoint, pushing
learning materials to Intranet pages that users frequently visit, increasing their exposure.
Our Intranet has pages for each office,
pages for each department, and pages for
each practice area. UniversitySite’s
integration with SharePoint makes it possible
for us to side-bar videos, training events,
and other learning resources on the practice
area page for litigation support. We discovered
side-barring learning resources on existing
pages was important for two reasons: We could
increase the use of our training resources
by distributing them across existing pages
where employees would expect to find them.
We could increase participation in voluntary
training by advertising training on pages
frequently
visited.
Manager of Information Technology
SharePoint Search / Enterprise Search
The SharePoint Extension seamlessly integrates SharePoint Search with UniversitySite
resources such as upcoming live training, webcasts, eLearning modules, and videos, and then
enables users to register for classes and view eLearning directly from within SharePoint.
We learned that our employees are increasingly
relying on ‘Search’ for navigating our
Intranet. When we discovered that employees
were searching the Intranet for training
and not finding any, we saw an opportunity.
UniversitySite’s integration with SharePoint
made it possible for employees to find
learning resources using SharePoint
search.
IT Director
Dozens of customizable reports are built-in to UniversitySite; However,
this extension provides your software developers with direct access to
a SQL database for extracting data and running custom reports. Data
is transferred from UniversitySite to reporting servers twice per day.

LegalEdCenter to gain access to their content library.
UniversitySite provides the ability to collect a 5-star rating on a course and each instructor. The evaluation form
