Grabbed your Vendor’s Jersey or garb they give you and are raring to go? Now, vendors are either saying, “Customer training and education,” or “Customer Training,” or “Customer Education,” or, in the case of one vendor, “Customer Learning.” Are you sitting down? Standing up?

A funny thing happened on the way to using GPT-4 last week, which I suspect that the vendors who have implemented GPT-4 and are using it as a statement/Q and A to the learners were not paying attention to. Turbo, which many vendors use that have OpenAI. Microsoft is not the only vendor that offers copilots.

First, it looks as though Linden Labs, the developers behind Second Life, may be downsizing their corporate efforts ( Second Life Enterprise Edition ). Two sources indicate that Linden may actually be shutting down their Enterprise operations. While this has not been totally verified by dozens of data sources. Interesting development.

While some view themselves as “social learning&# savvy, incorporating various components, others seem to see themselves as just sitting on the sidelines.

Well, one is aware, because I announced it via LinkedIn, but everyone else? Questions – Each learning system vendor was asked a series of questions. I recognize that not everyone – i.e. vendor has the funds to invest heavily into the UI/UX, and thus I put that into context when reviewing a system.

It was clear that not even LXP vendors (as a whole) knew – which explained why they targeted L&D, ignoring the other monster in the room, training. On top of all that, the LXP vendors (as a whole) pushed a false pretense that the LXP was vastly different than say an LMS. One of my favorite early vendors was GeoLearning.

There are vendors who show it as a playlist or offer multiple playlists. One Term that Should be Kicked to the Curb.

Innovation was stagnant and most vendor effort was invested in stealing customers from one another. LMS and performance management companies started merging and then the big HR/talent players acquired them. The LMS industry in 2015 now has hundreds and hundreds of viable vendor solutions.

Another big-time player in the learning technology/system space is Vista Equity, a PE, who at one-time in the 2009-time frame owned SumTotal. In 2021, they invested in Schoox.

2. Tool vendors should focus on being more proactive than reactive. Vendors in the industry tend to react to changes in technology, both software and hardware, so that they can stay relevant, rather than take chances on technologies that may not yet have proven themselves. Choose vendors who are daringly innovative.
