Blackbaud Learning Management System vs. Acorn

Blackbaud Learning Management System is fully integrated with Blackbaud SIS—not a separate tool—providing a holistic view of each student. Empower those students with a centralized assignment center, missing work alerts, and self-directed tasks. Reduce teacher workloads with strategic automation, bulk actions, and stored coursework. Meet a wide range of pedagogies and evaluate students based on your school’s priorities with flexible grading methods.

Acorn is the skills and development platform that closes the gap between what your people need to be able to do, what they can do today, and what is working to close it. Every role gets a standard, drawn from a framework of thousands of capabilities and proficiency levels. Your people capture the work they do against that standard, and the assessment is the checkpoint where a manager confirms what that work demonstrates. Development plans turn the gaps into action, and learning builds the skill.
