ATD Microcourse Library

Receive on demand, personalized learning for an entire year when you subscribe to ATD Elements, our new library of on demand courses powered by the ATD adaptive learning engine. The principle of adaptive learning is simple—assess what learners already know and personalize instructional content to teach them what they don’t know. Unlike most e-learning courses, which introduce concepts and then assess your understanding, these courses first assesses your knowledge and then fill in the gaps. Within this adaptive platform, when you miss questions, you will be presented with suggested resources—media, activities, and exercises—that cover the concept in detail. It’s up to you to spend time learning the concepts you missed and apply your knowledge to future questions. As you go through each course, the adaptive learning engine will continue to tailor and deliver instructional content based on the knowledge you demonstrate and the gaps you need to fill.

The most important metric for this adaptive course is your understanding of the material at the end. Each on demand course in the learning library sets the same learning objectives for all learners, but not all learners follow the same path to success.

Topics for these adaptive, on demand courses are listed in the Courses A-Z tab and include the training cycle, game design for learning, successful global training, coaching, and more. New courses will be added continuously.

Each course can take approximately 30 to 60 minutes to complete.
