The first comprehensive ISO standard on L&D metrics was published in June 2023 and many have now adopted it. This standard provides guidance for the selection and reporting of 52 key L&D metrics for large organizations and 19 for small/medium-sized organizations. The standard also includes definitions and formulas for the recommended metrics as well as illustrations of the use of many of the metrics in simple tables.   

We are living in unprecedented times. Between COVID and AI, ‘work’ as we know it has changed forever. Are remote/hybrid workers productive? Yes, but they feel disconnected from their team. The orgs that succeed will allow people to work remotely and manage them effectively.  

Branching scenarios are the gold standard for practicing soft skills, but they are notoriously difficult to build. Between mapping complex logic "spiderwebs" and writing authentic dialogue for every possible outcome, many designers give up and go back to linear content.  

You already know that information alone rarely changes behaviour. Learners need opportunities to practise, make decisions, and receive meaningful feedback. Practice, Not Content explores how AI coaching can bring personalized practice into eLearning at scale. Drawing on research, industry data, and real-world deployments, it examines what works, what learners value, and how to design AI coaching responsibly. Download the White Paper by Artha Learning to explore why the future of learning may be built on practice, not more content.

In today’s competitive marketplace, sales performance is no longer driven by activity alone — it’s driven by awareness. This dynamic and practical webinar explores how cultivating self-awareness within sales teams directly improves selling behaviors, customer relationships, and measurable results. Participants will learn why top performers consistently evaluate how they communicate, listen, position value, and respond to feedback — and how that awareness becomes a competitive advantage.

You have stood in front of a room, read the energy and owned it. You know what it feels like when a session clicks. But then when you got on Zoom, something felt off.  

A policy or slide deck can tell employees what the right answer is. A branching scenario shows whether they can use it when the situation gets complicated or multiple outcomes are possible. In other words, branching scenarios are one of the best ways to make workplace training feel more like actual practice. But they’re also easy to overbuild with too many paths, fake choices, or unclear feedback.   This guide keeps the focus on what makes scenario-based learning truly effective, including realistic decisions, clear consequences, and a creation process that stays manageable.  

Tired of watching participants toss your handouts aside? The problem isn't handouts—it's how they're designed. In this session, you'll transform your materials into engaging learning tools participants actually use. Discover seven participant-centered design principles, explore six interactive handout page types (like completion pages, windowpanes, and action planning), and learn the Need to Know, Nice to Know, Where to Go framework for organizing content.

Training remains, in all its forms, is an important component for development and growth.  Yet it too often falls short in achieving what everyone (the organization the trainer and the learner) needs from the experience. The problem isn’t exactly the training itself.  

This program will reveal why well-intentioned, polite mentorship often fails to drive real behavioral change by grounding the conversation in basic neuroscience, and it will show how trust-based, truth-driven feedback creates the kind of tension that leads to learning, stronger decision-making, and lasting growth.

Join four leading voices in modern Talent Development in a moderated discussion about the practical steps you can take to transform your function from a training provider into a strategic business partner. Use AI, alignment, governance, learning operations and new strategies to be truly valued. 

Your prospects are researching solutions at all hours of the day. They're asking AI tools for recommendations, comparing providers, and narrowing their options before speaking with sales. Learn how Answer Engine Optimization helps your company become the answer AI surfaces to potential buyers.

Most leadership programs today were built for a different world. When everything was predictable, you could teach leaders a framework and expect it to stick. Now? The moment they leave the program and hit their first ambiguous decision, they revert. Back to what feels natural. Back to their strength. And often, that's exactly the wrong move.  

Will AI be taking your job? Or will you be taking AI by the reins? AI isn't replacing creativity — it's expanding it. With the right toolset, you can do things you never thought possible, create content you never thought you could afford, and bring ideas to life that used to live only in your head.

What if your training content was built to be coached from day one? This webinar introduces how to design training programs using a coaching framework such as QALMS to ensure lessons are not only learned—but lived. Attendees will learn how to embed reflection questions, learning projects, and coaching prompts directly into instructional design to create a culture of application and growth.  

Valid and reliable are just the beginning. Clients expect our training solutions, tests, and credentials to be defensible, credible in the eyes of their stakeholders, and economically and operationally feasible.

Great learning experiences don't overwhelm learners with information, they guide them to discover it. In this webinar, explore how progressive disclosure can transform content-heavy courses into engaging, learner-driven experiences. Learn how to structure content in layers, allowing learners to reveal information at their own pace, stay focused on what matters most, and actively engage with the learning process. Through practical examples and demonstrations in Adobe Captivate, you'll discover how to create intuitive interactions that encourage exploration, improve comprehension, and support better knowledge retention.

Creating plausible choices and distractors is one of the most challenging aspects of writing scenarios. Options need to be realistic, and wrong answers should reflect mistakes someone might actually make, not obvious throwaways that learners can easily eliminate. When distractors are too weak, learners guess or game the system instead of genuinely practicing the decision—and that practice is exactly what builds the judgment they need to perform well on the job.

Stop counting completions. Start proving impact. Learning and development (L&D) leaders are often asked the same question over and over again: How is learning moving the business? The answer won’t come from siloed learning management system (LMS) exports or a sea of dashboards no one opens. It comes from building a learning intelligence system, one that consolidates data, leverages artificial intelligence (AI), connects learning to business KPIs and moves you from descriptive reporting to predictive, decision-ready insights.

Most virtual training sessions treat the chat window as a sidebar — a place for "got it" and the occasional link. The Textrovert Effect is the discovery that it can be something else entirely: the most powerful participation channel in the room.  

Can emotional intelligence actually be developed — and can you measure it? Many L&D leaders face skepticism from stakeholders who see EQ as a fixed trait or dismiss it as too "soft" to matter. In this session, Joshua Freedman, CEO of Six Seconds, answers the question with three real-world case studies showing how organizations designed EQ development programs that produced measurable, bottom-line results.
