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),…
LXP – Don’t believe the Hype
For those Gen Xers who remember the days of MTV, it sure had a lot of Hype. How many saw the debut song by the Buggles – on the first day of MTV launch (8-1-81)? Where were you on that fantastic day? I was babysitting – and saw it on that first day. I was…
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…
Enterprise Learning Systems – How I love thee?
Do you remember your first love? Your first true love? If you met them in high school and are still together, good for you, but that first true love is no more for the rest of us. Hence, it is first and not still. What was the first meeting like? Seeing them? Catching a glance?…
Confused? Welcome to the Learning System World of 2024
I just read (1-31-24) that during the Pandemic, students (EdTech, K-12, Higher Education) went down something like 4% in learning. That’s not good. I blame it on two areas – that seem to reverberate that e-learning isn’t as effective (I disagree). The first? Professors and teachers only do synchronous-based learning (which I believe isn’t as effective…
LMS, LXP Functionality U Will Need in 2024
LMS. LXP. Learning Platform. Talent Development Platform, all slide under the umbrella term of learning systems. Yet each one of them have similarities in terms of functionality they will need in 2024. Sure, TDPs may go X route, while the others go Y route, but in the general sense of it, there are capabilities that…
The LMS – Let’s Set The Record Straight
Deep thinking question. Can you think or name one SaaS or non-SaaS solution where the market for that solution overwhelmingly believes it is only Legacy and thus an antiquated offering best found in the diggings of Troy; or outdated, non-useful because it is called “X” and thus the entire industry of said “X” is therefore…
Why can’t you say YES, when you want to buy a learning system?
Remember Lotus 1-2-3? For those of us, who experienced the late 80s when Floppy Discs ruled, and then used Lotus in the 90’s, the memory of such a solution, is easily forgotten (although I did take an online course using only Lotus Notes, in 1998). I mention Lotus Notes because I went on LinkedIn Learning…
3rd Trend – Performance
Do you have your time travel gear? Shoes? Old-timey dress wear? British accent, or can you fake one? Ability to enjoy open-air travel without a headache? Then if yes, enter the time travel machine. We are going on a journey. Set the time back to the ’70s or ’80s or ’60s, maybe the 50s, just…
Enterprise Learning Systems – What does that really mean?
Enterprise. The term, is ambiguous in its nature. What does a company who themselves may refer to as an “Enterprise” really mean exactly? Is it based on the number of employees? Or setup of operations? Multiple locations and LOBs (or divisions)? Is it all the above, none of the above, something totally different? Trying to…
