The challenge for organizations is tracking and reporting on all of this learning in a consistent, reliable way. A great way to do this is by using the new learning technology specification, the Experience API (xAPI), which allows learning content and systems to speak to each other to record and track all types of learning experiences. In this Infoline, you will learn

• how and why the xAPI has emerged as the next-generation learning standard
