When does LTI 1.3 matter in an enterprise learning stack?

LTI 1.3 supports launching external learning tools and exchanging context. Confirm the services your workflow needs, then test identity, permissions, data sharing and support responsibilities.

Why it matters

A standard can reduce custom integration effort while still leaving important organisational questions unresolved. Buyers should distinguish protocol support from a complete operating integration.

Recommended action

INVESTIGATE — include standards support and conformance evidence in the integration design, then test the complete business workflow rather than only a successful launch.

Procurement intelligence · Evidence C

Learning integration standards in procurement

Ask for the exact LTI version, services and current certification the vendor supports. Test your intended workflow and confirm any configuration or custom work it needs.

Why it matters

Generic standards claims can hide meaningful differences in supported versions, services, security configuration and implementation effort.

Recommended action

ACT — replace generic 'supports standards' procurement questions with evidence-based workflow and conformance requirements.
