If 2020 taught us anything (and, well, it has had a few lessons)… is to invest in future-ready, tech-savvy Learning and development teams.

Judging from the ATD conference agenda, more people thinking about Learning Data. That's a great thing. As we see from the topics there, we're on the cusp of doing some really exciting things with it. 

eLearning courses have multiple standards to choose from for sending results.

Deloitte Global's 2019 survey of Human Capital Trends was pretty stark - 86% of respondents believe that in the face of rapid change in the workplace, they must reinvent their ability to learn.

I have to take my hat off to everyone who just completed the latest xAPI Cohort - all 650 of them! They spent 3 months "together" online for an hour a week from all over the world and learned every aspect of xAPI.

Last week I gave some practical examples of xAPI in use. It was really well received so I thought I'd offer some more this week. This one is by GVM's xAPI collaborators and is timely - it's launching this week to a national Audience across the USA. (Go team!)

This week I was asked why anyone would use xAPI.

I am often asked whether our organisation has xAPI capability as part of a requirement for us to be engaged and when I confirm that it does, I'm then asked "so what is xAPI?"

I was recently reviewing a tender for an LMS. In it, was a question that does not have an answer. Pity the poor vendors attempting to respond!

I have been thinking about the term “70:20:10”.
