Background to change• Historically systems and support provided by University of Liverpool• Recognition in 2013 following HEI status LSTM would need it’s own
systems• 2013/14 Review of school requirements and evaluation of VLEs• 2014/15 Implementation: configuration and integration• December 2014 first pilot course in BrightSpace• Full rollout September 2015

Institutional Challenges• Catering for a diverse student population
• Managing the user experience of different types of students
• Developing systems for future requirements• Integrating with an immature IT infrastructure• Integrating with a SIS which was in development• Sharing of good practice
