David Perring joins the Learning Technologies Summer Forum 2019 to help learning professionals get to grips with learning systems, looking in detail at the core features of Learning Experience Platforms, Next Generation Learning Environments and Learning Management Systems.

“It's an acronym jungle out there. Do all of them make sense, and just how much experience actually is there in a Learning Experience Platform. David Perring will put platforms under the microscope at the summer forum,” explains LTSF Conference Chair, Donald H Taylor.

Learning systems are an important part of any digital L&D strategy, but it can be challenging to move beyond the hype of the latest industry buzzwords and understand what really matters to you and your organisation.

Here, David Perring, director of research at Fosway, Europe’s #1 HR industry analyst, describes what the acronyms stand for, how they differ, and considers the merits of each. Cutting through the semantics, he will help you understand what you need and what you don’t.

David Perring will look at Learning Experience Platforms (LXPs), Next Generation Learning Environments (NGLEs) and Learning Management Systems (LMSs), and consider:

  • The key differences between a LXP, a NGLE and an LMS

  • How much X is there in the average LXP?

  • The latest trends in the digital learning platform space

  • The must-have components for your systems shopping list

  • How to decide which solution is right for your organisation

The Learning Technologies Summer Forum takes places at ExCeL London on 11 July. The full conference programme is available from the Learning Technologies Summer Forum website, along with how to attend, conference booking information and details about the co-located Learning Technologies Summer Forum exhibition.

The Learning Technologies Summer Forum Conference is free for Learning Technologies conference delegates, past LSG conference delegates and Learning and Skills Group members. The full terms and eligibility are available on the LTSF conference website.
