Alurna - URM's Learning Management System (LMS)
What is Alurna?
Alurna is URM’s learning management system or LMS as it is often referred to. As a leading UK consultancy, training and software provider in the areas of information security, data protection, business continuity and risk management.
URM has leveraged all of its experience and expertise to develop Alurna. This LMS represents the marriage of training expertise gained from delivering hundreds of hours of classroom-based training with best-practice content acquired from delivering ‘state of the art’ consultancy since 2005.
As a web-based platform, Alurna is accessible via any browser from anywhere with content tailored to your precise needs.
How Can Alurna be Used?
Alurna can be used in many ways, including as part of induction awareness programmes for new starters and annual refresher training for existing staff. Whatever its application, it goes without saying that e-learning needs to be engaging and relevant.
Ensuring Abriska is ‘engaging’ is the responsibility of our creative and training teams and ensuring its ‘relevance’ is the responsibility of our consultants. It is the consultants who will work closely with you to understand your organisation, your culture and the messages you need to deliver.
Your messages may involve communicating your approach to different subjects such as information security and data protection, along with your policies, procedures and working practices. You may also be looking to inform individuals of new or changes to legislative or regulatory requirements.
