“All learning designers will be AI-enhanced learning designers in the future"
Learn how to become a "full stack" LXD capable of analysing, designing, developing, implementing and evaluating learning experiences with the help of AI — without sacrificing quality.
In 4 hands-on weeks, you’ll learn how to work with AI to:
Analyse → diagnose learning problems and define success with confidence
Design → create evidence-based learning solutions you can defend
Develop & implement → rapidly prototype and build AI-powered tools and workflows
Evaluate → measure impact continuously and improve learning over time
_____
This isn't just a "how to prompt" course:
→ You'll develop the evergreen skills, principles & frameworks you need to decide if, when and how to work with AI across the end-to-end workflow.
→ You’ll leave with a set of reusable AI systems you can use for real straight away — from prompt templates to GPTs, agents & automated multi-agent workflows.
What you’ll learn
You’ll learn when to use AI, how to guide it properly, and how to scale what works, without sacrificing quality or judgement.
Run root cause analysis with AI to decide: is this actually a training problem?
Analyse qualitative and quantitative data to define the learning problem, goals, and success criteria
Create a robust problem definition document (business problem, learning problem, root cause, learner profile)
Generate clear, measurable learning objectives mapped to learner profiles and business outcomes
Use AI to explore and select instructional strategies, delivery modes, and learning concepts
Produce an evidence-based design outline and rationale you can explain to stakeholders
Draft and refine learning content using AI while maintaining quality control
Rapidly prototype learning activities, scenarios, and experiences for early testing
Decide when a design should become a prompt, GPT, app, or agent - then build
Analyse qualitative feedback using AI-assisted semantic analysis
Explore and interpret quantitative evaluation data with AI support
Build always-on evaluation systems using bots and agents
