2023 Learning Trends and the Whys Behind Them

While learning trends the past few years have focused on meeting the moment, trends moving forward are based upon what we’ve learned while operating during disruption so we can continue to meet the most pressing needs. In this session we’ll discuss the top five trends impacting education program development in the coming year, the whys behind them, and the massive shift across sectors to focusing on DEI in learning design.
