What are Suites and Specialists?
Learning System Suites
These are platforms supporting and integrating a broad range of traditional and next gen learning approaches. They aim to cover all the main bases – traditional learning management, heightened learner experience, old and new learning channels. They are the evolution of LMSs that have added next gen and learner experience capabilities, but also the evolution of the NGLEs/LXPs that have back-filled learning management capability to become a ‘one stop shop’ for modern learning. They are the complete opposite of Learning System Specialists.
Learning System Specialists
They unashamedly focus on specific areas of capability with a disruptive high impact agenda. Whether that is being the best at mobile learning, doing AI-managed adaptive delivery, or building integrated learner experiences from multiple sources, Specialists have a focused proposition and want to lead the market in their chosen focus area. Specialists will rarely be the only Learning System in an organisation. They cannot cover all the areas of learning that a company needs to manage or support. Instead their goal is to disrupt the Suites and to deliver heightened impact in a specific area of modern learning.
Digital Learning Realities Research
Fosway’s ongoing Digital Learning Realities research, now in its sixth year, explores the digital learning landscape. This year’s research, carried out in partnership with the Learning Technologies Conference, looks at corporate learning in a post-pandemic world.
More than 500 senior learning professionals from enterprise organisations across Europe were surveyed between January and October 2021. They provide their insights on how learning is changing as organisations move beyond the COVID-19 pandemic. The research reveals:
• The impact of the pandemic on L&D strategies
• The effectiveness of learning technologies
• The innovation driving digital learning
• Skills as a strategic driver of learning
