Ever since massive open online courses ( MOOCs ) came about, people have been speculating their impact to traditional degree programs. At first it was hard to see what kind of lasting influence MOOCs would have on such an established industry, but today we are now starting to get a sense of the changes MOOCs are ushering into this field, especially now that popular services like Coursera and edX have had time to mature.

Contrary to what some may think, compliance training is not the “enemy.” No, the problem we’re facing is the fact that so many organizations simply slap a bunch of bullets and boxes on a screen, force learners to sit through countless slides, and call it “training.” This makes for a very unpleasant experience that learners dread. And we don’t blame them.

In fact, a shift in the way the military trains personnel could have troops just as likely tapping away on smartphones as they are doing pushups. So why the shift in training tactics?

Remember the good old days of the high school group assignment ?
