Join Learning Rebels Coffee Chats for smart, off-the-wall conversations about L&D topics that matter most today.
People leave training feeling good. Then they go back to their desks and nothing changes. It happens in classrooms, in virtual sessions, in eLearning modules that took months to build. Learners complete the program, pass the assessment, and return to doing things exactly the way they did before. The good news is that learning transfer ... Read more
The robots didn't take your job. But they did rearrange it. The conversation about AI in L&D has moved past "is this real?" and into something more practical and more personal. The tools are here, people are using them, and the day-to-day work of designing, developing, and delivering learning looks different than it did two ... Read more
Forgive me, I have a confession! I have pretended the LMS was down to buy myself another day on a deadline. I have copy-pasted a learning objective from a course I built three years ago and called it "updated content." I have told someone a report wasn't available because running it requires 35 clicks and ... Read more
Every experienced L&D professional has a trick up their sleeve. This is the session where we spill all the tea. Design work takes time, and to be honest, it's probably the place where we spend the most time. Tweaking something until we get it "just right." The stars start to align the moment you find ...

Empty seats are just the visible problem. The real question is what's happening underneath them. Whether it's a virtual session where half the room has their camera off and one eye on their email, a self-paced course that nobody finishes, or a classroom where people are physically present but clearly somewhere else, disengagement is one ...

For generations, people learned the job the same way: start at the bottom, handle the grunt work, and pick up the rest along the way. Now AI is taking over much of that grunt work. So where does the learning happen? Entry-level tasks were never just busywork. Drafting the first version, cleaning up the data, ... Read more
Ask any leader whether mentoring matters and you’ll get an enthusiastic yes. Ask to see the mentoring program, and things get awkward. Mentoring shows up on nearly every list of ways to grow people. Yet many programs never get past the kickoff, fizzle after a few coffee meetings, or exist only on paper. Meanwhile, with ... Read more
“We need people who can think critically.” It’s on every leader’s wish list. But can a course actually deliver that, or are we promising something training can’t do? Critical thinking, ... Read more
Back in January, the predictions were bold: AI tutors for everyone, the end of the LMS, VR headsets in every training room. Ten months later, it’s time to check the ... Read more
Before the year wraps up, two things are worth doing: thanking the people who helped us get here, and saying our wildest ideas out loud. This isn’t a year-end review, ... Read more
