In today's fast-growing Indian market, industries like FMCG, retail, telecom, manufacturing, and distribution are expanding their field teams across multiple cities and locations.
Managing training manually is no longer efficient especially when hundreds of employees work across stores, regions, and projects. This is where an LMS for Sales Teams becomes essential.
A Learning Management System (LMS) helps companies train their sales workforce more effectively with structured modules, real-time visibility, and automated attendance tracking.
For Indian businesses that handle large sales teams in metros, tier-2, and tier-3 cities, an LMS reduces training effort, saves time, improves compliance, and ensures every employee gets the same quality training.
One of the most important parts of our Sales Team LMS is the Session Management feature, which allows businesses to conduct different types of training classes based on their operational needs.
Understanding the Sessions Module in Sales Team LMS
Once a training module is created (for example, "Gaming Notebook"), the admin can start creating Sessions.
Sessions are basically training classes, and in our LMS we provide four types of sessions:
1. Classroom Session
In a classroom session, employees gather at a designated venue for physical training.
For example, if 100 employees are working in the Kolkata location, the training will happen from 10 AM to 3 PM at a fixed place. All 100 employees need to reach that venue where the trainer will conduct the session.
In the employee app, when the employee reaches the venue, they can mark attendance by capturing a photo.
This ensures:
- Verified physical presence
- No manual attendance sheets
- Real-time tracking for admin
2. Virtual Session
A virtual session works similarly to a classroom session, but online.
The admin can conduct the session over Google Meet, Teams, or Zoom. The meeting link can be copied and pasted into the LMS while creating the session.
Employees assigned to that session will see:
- Session date
- Session timing
- Meeting link
Employees can mark their attendance before joining the session. After that, they click the meeting link, and it redirects them to the virtual training.
This makes virtual training easy for remote sales teams who cannot visit physical venues.
3. In-Store Session
In this session type, the trainer's login comes into action.
This is mainly for physical, store-level training, where trainers visit each store to provide on-ground training with live locations of the project or client.
Key features include:
- Trainers mark attendance for the trainees
- Trainer captures photos of the employees during the in-store session
- Attendance is geo-tagged from the trainer's location
This type of session is ideal for retail chains, appliance stores, electronics brands, telecom outlets, and modern trade.
4. E-Learning Session
E-Learning sessions allow employees to learn at their own pace from their app login.
These sessions include multiple types of E-Learning Decks, such as:
- Pictures
- YouTube video links (embedded)
- Other formats as per client or business requirements
Employees get multiple learning cards similar to training apps or "traingram" style learning", making it easy to access training content anytime.
