As AI rapidly transforms the learning landscape, one truth is becoming clear: organizations can no longer rely on one-size-fits-most training. In this Ecosystem Experts episode, OpenSesame’s Liza Mucheru Wisner and D2L’s Sandy Rezendes explore how AI can make learning more flexible, personalized, and human.
Drawing on decades of experience across multiple waves of disruption, from pre-internet classrooms to the rise of cloud and now AI, Sandy offers a grounded, practical look at what’s changing, what still matters, and what learning leaders must pay attention to.
Together, she and Liza discuss how tools like AI-powered personalization, skills intelligence, VR-driven experiential learning, and real-time coaching can help employees learn in the flow of work – not just during scheduled training.
This conversation is especially helpful for L&D and HR leaders feeling the pressure to adapt. It’s a reminder that AI isn’t here to replace people, but to help them thrive.
What you’ll learn:
- How to use AI to personalize learning so employees gain relevant, adaptive support in the flow of work.
- Why building continuous capability is more effective than one-time training events.
- Ways to strengthen human connection in learning with tools like VR, coaching, and skills analytics.
