Reminder: Employer Micro-credential Summit

The Employer Micro-credential Summit is coming up on Wednesday, October 21 and Friday, October 23, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. at UCO at Santa Fe Plaza. LX Studio is proud to partner with the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education on this event.

If you're an employer, HR leader, workforce partner, economic development professional, or higher education leader, this is a chance to explore how skills-based learning and micro-credentials can strengthen Oklahoma's talent pipeline.

The event is free to attend, but seating is limited for both dates. Register now to save your spot: https://na2.hubs.ly/H07wwdr0

Why does some training stick and some fades within a week?

On October 29th, Dr. Trevor Cox is presenting “Map It to Mean It: Unlocking the Neuroscience in Your Training” with the Training Magazine Network, covering how to apply cognitive load and memory research to the way you design programs.

What does learning design actually look like?

Sometimes, it looks a lot like this.

At LX Studio, we use Learning Environment Modeling™ (LEM) to visually map the pieces of a learning experience—from what learners need to know and do to how they practice, receive feedback, and demonstrate what they’ve learned.

Seeing the whole learning environment helps us uncover gaps, make connections, and design solutions around the actual problem—not just jump straight to building a course.

Tomorrow, Dr. Trevor Cox is presenting “Beyond the Sticky Note: Turning Design Thinking Into Real Training Solutions” with Training Magazine Network.

If you've sat through a design thinking workshop and walked away with a lot of ideas but no clear next step, this session is for you.

Register now:

Beyond the Sticky Note: Turning Design Thinking Into Real Training Solutions Design thinking is a powerful tool for training but but the real challenge is knowing how to actually use it to design better learning. This workshop moves beyond theory and into hands-on application, showing participants exactly how to put frameworks to work on a real training problem. In workshop....

Where is your team with AI right now?

Maybe you're just starting to explore what's possible. Maybe people are already experimenting with AI tools, but there isn't a clear strategy yet. Or maybe you're ready to take what you've learned and build a more intentional approach.

Wherever you're starting, understanding where you are today can make it much easier to figure out what comes next.

Our AI Training Snapshot asks a few quick questions about your team's current use of AI. Once you submit it, someone from LX Studio will review your responses and follow up with recommendations for a practical next step.

Design thinking sounds great in theory. Putting it into practice is where most teams get stuck.

Join Dr. Trevor Cox for "Beyond the Sticky Note: Turning Design Thinking Into Real Training Solutions," a free workshop-style webinar with the Training Magazine Network.

He'll walk through real maps and blueprints that expose assumptions, clarify needs, and lead to stronger, learner-centered training solutions. No confusion, no performative sticky notes, just practical tools your team can use right away.

Most teams are using AI. Few have a plan for using it well.

Our AI Learning Services help close that gap, building AI literacy, shared ways of working, and a training strategy that actually fits your organization, all grounded in learning science.

Upcoming Event: Employer Micro-credential Summit

LX Studio is partnering with the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education to host the Employer Micro-credential Summit at UCO at Santa Fe Plaza. The event brings together employers, HR leaders, workforce partners, economic development professionals, and higher education leaders to explore how skills-based learning and micro-credentials can strengthen Oklahoma's talent pipeline.

Choose whichever date works best for you: Wednesday, October 21 or Friday, October 23, both from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. in downtown Oklahoma City. The event is free to attend.

During the summit, participants will:
▪️Learn how micro-credentials support skills-based hiring
▪️Discover practical ways to upskill and retain employees
▪️Connect with employers and education partners building talent pathways
▪️Help shape the future of workforce credentials aligned to industry needs
▪️Join roundtable discussions, networking, and collaborative workshops

Seating is limited for both dates, so register today: https://na2.hubs.ly/H07wtsw0

Most feedback tells learners what they got wrong. Not much of it tells them how to improve.

Our recent piece, "Beyond the Red Pen: Designing AI Feedback Loops That Actually Teach," looks at how AI can help close that gap.

Read it here:

Beyond the Red Pen: Designing AI Feedback Loops That Actually Teach Fast AI feedback doesn’t automatically produce learning. Learn how to design AI feedback loops in training that drive real revision and measurable improvement.

There's a difference between using AI and understanding how it actually works behind the scenes.

In a recent blog post, John Gillmore, Ph.D. explores how to help learners build that understanding, so they evaluate AI outputs instead of just accepting them.
