A New Era of Learning: Shaping the Skills-Forward LMS

community election

The demand for skills-forward and competency-based education is growing rapidly, but is your technology ready to meet it? For many institutions, the answer is no. A reliance on traditional, often manual solutions is a major roadblock to delivering a truly scalable and personalized learning experience.

In our upcoming webinar, “A New Era of Learning: Shaping the Skills-Forward LMS,” we’ll dive into the findings of our research on the evolving technology needs of higher education. We’ll share insights from institutions that are making skills-forward learning work and reveal what they need from their EdTech partners to build for the future.

This session will provide clarity on:

  • The core technology features needed to support progress tracking, content alignment, and flexible grading.
  • How a purpose-built platform can empower new roles and lighten the administrative load.
  • Why an open-source approach offers a unique path to building a more collaborative and responsive solution.
