Abstract—Online employee training requires a good training platform to be more efficient. Therefore, this study aims to: 1) analyze the need for developing a Learning Management System (LMS); 2) develop an LMS; 3) test the feasibility of an LMS; and 4) understand employees perceptions of developed LMS for online automotive employee training. This research is development research with 4D models, consists of 4 main steps: define, design, develop, and disseminate. Data were collected from 70 automotive industry employees using a questionnaire. Product testing involved 5 experts in vocational education, information technology, and learning media. The data were analyzed through qualitative analysis and quantitative descriptive statistics. The results showed that, first, LMS needs to have an attractive appearance, simple, elegant, complete, neat, and structured menus, downloadable materials, updated logos, notifications, delivery status, separation of materials and questions, clear images, animation, and various learning media. Second, LMS results are developed without using the available platforms but as needed by customizing the web. Third, the LMS is feasible by fulfilling aspects of convenience, appearance, content arrangement, interaction, ease of monitoring, and facilitating independent learning. Finally, most employees consider that the LMS developed follows their needs, career development, and utilization in the workplace.
