Why is Forefront changing its online learning system?
We are moving all of our online training courses to a new learning management system (LMS) called Intellum on September 22 2025. Intellum’s platform is designed to be more user-friendly and to make it easier to access our courses.
When will the change happen?
The transition will occur on September 22 2025. On that date:
- All access to the current LMS will close — this includes registration for new users and access for existing learners.
- The new LMS will go live. You can register for new courses in the new system after this date.
What happens to my in-progress courses?
Any courses you have not completed by September 22 will be lost. You will need to start over in the new LMS.
Can I still take courses in the old system before the switch?
Yes. You can continue to register for and complete courses in the old system up until September 22.
Will my account transfer to the new system?
No. We will not be moving user accounts from the old system to the new one.
You will need to create a new account in the new LMS if you want to take courses after September 22.
Will my course completions transfer?
While your account won’t transfer, we will keep records of course completions from the old system.
- You will not be able to view your old courses in the new system.
- If you need proof of completion after September 22, you can email ffront@uw.edu.
How do I download my certificate before the switch?
If you have completed a course and want a copy of your certificate:
- Log in to the old LMS before September 22 2025.
- Download and save your certificate.
After September 22, you will need to contact us for proof of completion.
How do I register in the new system?
After September 22 2025:
- Select the course you want to take.
- Click the link to register in the new LMS. This guide will tell you how to login and create a new account.
