T119: Using the New PTSI LMS Features to Create an Active Learning Environment
The electrical training ALLIANCE will update the PTSI Online Learning System curriculum. This will occur between 5 a.m. and 6 a.m. Eastern on Friday, July 1. We have several exciting features being implemented and want to inform you in advance due to the potential impact on non-completed student progress. (more…)
The PTSI Online Learning System (OLS) and the Training Management System (TMS) will be undergoing system performance, security, and maintenance upgrades. Please avoid using the OLS and the TMS this weekend.
This next-generation course is designed to make print-reading skills more in line with current 
technologies. This new course replaces the existing Blueprint Reading for Electricians Textbook and its associated course. The electrical training ALLIANCE recommends that the online eBook reference be the primary source for students in place of the printed textbook. This online textbook is available on several platforms, including the web and Android and Apple apps. Each platform has its own requirements and compatibilities, but the web-based version is currently the most stable. 
The eBook enables students to have the best experience viewing large prints and detailed drawings. Although you can view large prints and detailed illustrations on a smaller device, more screen real estate is helpful in many cases. (more…)

We are happy to announce that on January 31, 2022, you will see a new edition of the Training
Partner New Product Symposium course in the PTSI Online Learning System (OLS). As we continue to work with existing and new Training Partners to support our JATCs, it became necessary to update the course. We have cleaned up and updated the Training Partner pages to make it easier and more efficient to access the information you need. (more…)
You may notice a snazzy new button on the side of the LMS. 
That is a help button. It’s an easy way to get to the new form to submit a Help ticket.
Right now, it goes directly to the form to submit a ticket for support for all LMS users. Soon we will also have a knowledge base implemented to easily search for common help issues.
The LMS Support link remains on the bottom right-hand side of the LMS pages, as it has always been. The difference now is that it goes directly to submitting a ticket.
The user is required to enter their email address, training location, subject, and a brief description of the problem. There is other information the user can provide, such as their role, the type of support needed, operating system, the browser they are having issues with, etc.
These tickets are routed directly to our support staff. As we continue to improve the system support, we will keep you notified.
Thanks for reading!
