Learner Information Suite 17.01 software

Overview

The Learner Information Suite (LIS) software is a software application which is made available to providers to assist in preparation of ILR data. Version 17.01 processes 2009/10 ILR data and contains functionality for ILR Validation, Funding calculations (Employer Responsive) and reports.

Installation

LIS 17.01 requires Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 to run. If your PC environment does not have this, you will need to download (from the table below) and install it before running the LIS 17.01 installation.  If you have previously installed LIS series 16 then .NET framework will already exist.

Next Release

We plan to release LIS 17.02 in September 2009. The next version will include the Learner Responsive funding calculation and more reports.
