• Suggest improvements to existing pathways based on learner input and organizational priorities.
• Assist with reporting and analysis tied to learner engagement and content usage.

Success Measures

• Learning journeys closely match business priorities and skill-building goals.
• Stakeholders are satisfied with the curated learning solutions.
• Learning pathways remain current, organized, and easy to navigate.
