Case Study: Universidad Santo Tomás launches Colombia’s first online doctoral program with Open LMS

Universidad Santo Tomás supports 6,000 users per semester with Open LMS

Universidad Santo Tomás, a major Colombian university, faced challenges with its previous learning management system, which suffered from frequent network failures and slow service, leading to persistent student complaints. To provide a quality virtual campus, the university partnered with Open LMS for its robust and scalable cloud-based learning service.

With the Open LMS solution, the university significantly improved its teaching processes, minimizing technical issues and enabling a more intuitive experience. This allowed the institution to focus on enhancing course design with interactive digital content. The results were positive feedback from users and the approval from Colombia’s Ministry of Education to launch the country’s first online doctoral program. Open LMS supported approximately 6,000 users per semester, providing the reliability needed for the university to expand its virtual academic offerings.
