Education/ Training
Generative AI Integration in Learning and Development
This year saw a growing emphasis on Education/Training's 2024 trend of using AI to deliver personalized learning paths, create content, and immersive VR/AR training environments. (Content has also begun focusing on teaching students human-centric skills — emotional intelligence and critical thinking — as well as AI literacy.)
Companies Leading Trend
- Docebo – Implemented AI-powered features, including: 1) "Docebo Shape" (transforms documents into microlearning modules); 2) "AI Creator" tool for automated content generation; 3) auto-skill assignment; and 4) "AI Coach" for interactive conversations with personalized feedback reports.
- Voxy – Uses AI to deliver 1) personalized language learning with 20,000+ adaptive lessons that adjust to individual progress; 2) customized business English programs drawn from real workplace content like recordings of sales calls and industry-specific materials. This practical approach accelerates learning substantially faster than traditional methods.
