Educational roles are undergoing a significant transformation as AI-powered learning systems increasingly take over content delivery and basic assessments. Automated grading, personalized learning platforms, and AI tutoring systems are reducing the reliance on traditional instructional support positions.
According to projections by the World Economic Forum, up to 20% of educational support roles may be automated by 2030. However, teachers remain indispensable, highlighting the mixed economic signals within the education sector.
At the same time, the need to support multiple locations (including globalization) and distance learning for organizations (e.g., universities, internal and external education/training departments) has been recognized as important for decades. However, the coronavirus pandemic has made it an essential component for the successful development (education, training) of candidates (e.g., students, internal and external staff). In addition, todays fast paced dynamic workplace environment has driven the need to provide flexible any-time any-place education/training, as well as the digitization of all administrative processes.
These certificates prepare organizations (e.g., managers, teachers, administrators) to be effective educators/trainers in today's multi-location global environment that leverages emerging information technologies (especially AI, blockchain, and security).
- With only 35% of IT and non-IT executives believing that their organizations currently have the required digital leadership skills, the opportunities for digital management education are growing exponentially.
- The success rate of today’s digital initiatives resembles the traditionally low success rate of IT projects. We continue to make the same mistakes.
- Naturally, having accurate, accessible, secure data is fundamental to a successful AI initiative, thus providing additional topics addressed in this program.
An LMS (Learning Management System) is all about control. It’s designed to deliver, track, and manage training/education. Think of it like a digital classroom where the instructors set the rules, assign tasks, and track progress. It’s great for ensuring compliance and structured learning.
An LXP (Learning Experience Platform), on the other hand, is learner centered. It focuses on personalized learning experiences, often leveraging AI to recommend content based on the learner’s preferences and behavior. It’s more like a Netflix for learning—letting the user explore, engage, and choose their own learning path.
While an LMS is like a strict teacher, an LXP is more like a mentor who lets students find their own way.
