CredSpark Ideas & Innovations

What if you could help employees use a self-assessment to find the course that’s right for them?

Give learners agency over their learning and tailor a course recommendation to their role and goals.


When it comes to adult learning, two important ideas are ownership and agency. When learners feel in control of their learning and have a say in shaping their path, they’re more motivated and engaged.

To support this, the CredSpark learning team created a sample interaction that considers someone’s job level, their experience with Excel, and their personal development goals. After answering a few short questions, learners see a selection of courses tailored to their needs. If they’d like to see more choices, they can simply retake the quiz!

This tool doesn’t just help learners find the right courses for themselves; it also gives the learning team valuable information about users’ confidence and goals. By connecting this data to job levels and seeing which course suggestions learners choose, the team can better understand what works and improve future recommendations.
