Start with the decisions you want your learning data to support. This starter edition gives you a practical framework you can use today.
Start with a decision you want to improve.
Identify a question your team needs to answer, such as where learners get stuck or which resources need revision. Define the action you would take for each possible finding before choosing a dashboard.
Check the meaning behind each metric.
A completion count is not the same as understanding or improved performance. Document how each measure is collected, which learners it covers, and where the gaps are. Pair activity data with relevant feedback.
Connect only the data you need.
Map the systems that hold useful learning records. Confirm identifiers, supported integrations, and access controls. Collect the smallest amount of personal information needed for the purpose and follow your organisation’s privacy requirements.
Build a repeatable review habit.
Share a small set of useful measures with the people who can act on them. Set a review schedule and record the changes you make. Use the next review to find out whether those changes helped.
