What's new in iSpring LMS
You always get state of the art LMS. iSpring is updated weekly.
Every year we release dozens of new feature for outstanding training experience.
September 2026
Add multiple observations in a single OJT session
You can now record multiple observations within a single on-the-job training (OJT) session. This is useful when employee performance is assessed over several visits or days—you don’t need to create a new session or re-enter the same information each time.
All observations are stored together, and iSpring LMS automatically provides summary statistics. Managers and trainers can view the average score, results by individual criteria, details for each visit, and compare results across sessions.
Track employee progress over time and get a more complete picture of their skills and performance.
August 2026

We've expanded the list of languages available for creating and translating courses with AI, adding 27 new languages—from Belarusian and Uzbek in Cyrillic to African languages such as Igbo, Shona, Xhosa, and Yoruba.
