Choose your own Adventure Path
What a week. That’s the way I feel, with a return of an injury on my right hand, the challenges of writing as a result and some alternatives to presenting the information for this blog. Initially it was going to be 100% video-based, but after hearing from folks who loved the LL product review thru…
Top 85 Learning Systems for 2020
85. That sounds about right. Initially the list was 100, but culling has begun and for some, that meant, well, why be an “in the box” kind of the person, when being a bit “outside” of the box is so much more fun. 85. It does seem like such a large number, but when you…
The LMS and LXP Draft 2024
Learning Systems. Would you select an LMS? What about an LXP? Oh, maybe a combo of the two? Perhaps a learning platform that calls themselves whatever, has some functionality or more of an LMS, but won’t refer to them as that. Do you go with an Enterprise version? Customer Training/Education (aka legacy term as extended…
Learning Technology and Learning Systems: Trust and Profitability
Learning Technology: LMS, LXP, LMS/LXP, Skills Platform, Learning Platform, Authoring Tools, Third-Party Content Providers, EdTech (K-12, Higher Education). E-Learning tools. EDP, and the list continues. Trust. Customer support, technical support, meeting obligations presented before or as part of the signing, promises unfilled, survival one minute, sale the next, consolidation (albeit the numbers are very small),…
Buying a Learning System – Dread
Dread. It’s not a typical word that comes up when you decide to purchase whatever type of learning system, whether it is an LMS, LXP, Learning Platform, Talent Development Platform, Employee Dev Platform (a tiny market, but it exists), or whatever a vendor spins their learning system as. Yet it is there. Dread. In the…
Vision 2025: Learning Systems Transformation with AI
With the increase usage of AI in learning systems, whether they are an LMS, LXP, Learning Platform, a combo of LMS/LXP, Talent Development system, Mentoring platform, Coaching platform, or Sales Enablement Platform, where the whole focus is on sales training, or some other learning system that doesn’t want to call themselves any of the above…
Did you know? Learning Systems Vol 3
LMS aka Learning Management System. LXP – Learning Experience Platform. Learning Platform. Cohort-based learning platform. Employee Experience Platform (bad name for it). Employee Development Platform. There is a lot there for types of systems as I have noted before. I can’t forget the joke of micro-learning platforms, ignoring that micro-learning has been around since 2000,…
Learning System Failures – Recognize and Fix
Chris Taylor. Chris plays for the Los Angeles Dodgers, my favorite baseball team (MLB). You might have someone similar who plays for your favorite soccer team (there are sites, that mention the worst), or cricket, or hockey or football, or tidily winks. Chris was once a good player. That was about two years ago. Nowadays…
Learning System Relationships – Renew or Break Free
If you have never experienced what I am about to cover, and you currently have a LMS, LXP, Learning Platform or any other type of learning system, heck even a talent management system with learning as a component, this little ditty will at some point come into play. For those of us, who have gone…
Uncovering True Innovation in LMS, LXP, and Learning Platforms
Innovate? An LMS? LXP? Learning Platform? Employee Dev Platform? Are you saying that any of these platform types are innovative? Wait, LMS? Oh, that is so traditional; there isn’t any innovation there. LXP? That’s where innovation comes in (hint- it doesn’t). A Learning Platform driven by brain-centric modalities? That must be innovative. AI-first platforms. Ok,…
