Hire an offshore L&D coordinator for your Australian business
An offshore L&D coordinator runs the operations behind your learning and capability programs — LMS administration, training scheduling, content updates, completion tracking, and reporting. Through Lite-Force, they're employed properly via an EOR structure with payroll, compliance, and HR support included. Most hires are live within 2–4 weeks.

Why offshore
Why L&D coordination works well offshore.
L&D operations are platform-driven.
LMS admin, enrolment, and reporting are workflow-driven tasks. Once your offshore coordinator knows your platforms and content libraries, they run them consistently.
Every LMS is cloud-based.
Litmos, Cornerstone, Docebo, LearnUpon, Workday Learning — all browser-based with full admin functionality remote. Your offshore coordinator works in the same instance as your L&D lead.
Timezone overlap supports live programs.
Philippines hours align with Australian business hours. Live training sessions get coordinated in real time; learner queries get answered same-business-day.
Frees L&D leaders for strategy.
Heads of L&D shouldn't be running enrolment lists. Offshore coordination handles the operational layer, letting your senior L&D people focus on capability strategy and program design.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
What LMS platforms are they trained on?
Common: Litmos, Cornerstone, Docebo, LearnUpon, Workday Learning, Lessonly, TalentLMS, Moodle, Canvas. Specific platform requirements confirmed during scoping.
Can they help build content, not just administer it?
Many can — Articulate Storyline, Rise 360, Vyond, and Camtasia familiarity is common. For pure instructional designers or content creators, we screen specifically for that skill set.
Can they handle Australian compliance training requirements?
Yes — workplace health and safety, anti-discrimination, privacy, and other mandatory training programs are routine. We screen for AU-specific exposure during sourcing.
How do they handle live training session coordination?
Standard practice — scheduling, room/Zoom booking, attendance tracking, post-session reporting. Live facilitation usually remains with your subject matter experts; coordination handles logistics.
What if the hire doesn't work out?
Replacement commitment within the initial engagement period. If quality or fit isn't right, we source again at no additional placement cost. Details confirmed in your service agreement.
