The explosion of technology-related modality of teaching had increased exponentially in commercial and in open-source arena. The importance and implication of having such technology-related modality had been magnified ten-folds by the emergence and longevity of COVID-19 pandemic. All over the world, education institutions and academic excellence providers inevitably shifted to these 'new normal' way of teaching. This paper proposed the innovation of a centralized National Learning Management System for Omani students. Initial evidence was based on the differentiated performance of students in Mathematics Placement Test result as mediated by engagement scores obtained the National LMS transactional database. The highly positive correlation between the engagement made by the students in the course contents and the placement test score proves that the exposure in the National LMS is a noteworthy advocacy. This paper provides evidence and proofs that the concept of having a centralized National LMS is doable in smaller number of courses such as in General Foundation Program and expected to bring about a worthwhile learning experience to new intakes in pre-Higher Education courses in the entire Sultanate.
