SUMMARY:ATD Las Vegas September Chapter Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Deliver and Track Learning Experiences\, No LMS Required\nLearning platforms (LMS\, LXP\, etc.) often create barriers for organizations: they’re inflexible\, expensive\, clunky to use and manage\, and frequently fail to produce meaningful data. \nIn this session\, discover how Build Capable XCL allows you to deliver and track a wide range of content – SCORM and xAPI content\, PDFs\, videos\, images\, websites\, and more – all without requiring a platform or user accounts. \n✅ XCL is a patent-pending tool that creates a shareable link to your content. When someone clicks the link\, you collect real-time data about their actions. \nWe’ll explore real-world case studies of how organizations are using XCL to deliver and track learning experiences at scale. Plus: \nTry an XCL learning link yourself and see how your data is reported. \nExplore the free AI-powered analytics tool\, Build Capable XCL Data Explorer\, and create on-demand visualizations from your data. \n🎯 Session Objectives:\n✔ Discover the benefits of “headless” (platform-less) learning experiences.\n✔ Explore examples of delivering and tracking learning with Build Capable XCL.\n✔ Use Build Capable XCL Data Explorer for AI-powered analytics on demand. \nSarah Mercier\, MBA\, CPACC\nSarah Mercier specializes in innovative learning technology and strategic implementation of learning solutions. As CEO of Build Capable\, she leads efforts in inclusive design\, equity\, and accessibility. Sarah is an international facilitator for ATD and a frequent speaker at global conferences\, known for her ability to translate complex concepts into practical applications. \nShe’s also a published author and editor\, contributing to Design for All Learners: Create Accessible and Inclusive Learning Experiences\, ATD’s Trends in Learning Technology\, and more. \n🎓 Earn 1 ATD APTD/CPTD CEU for attending!

SUMMARY:xAPI for Everyone: Analysing Your Digital learning Assets with Build Capable XCL
DESCRIPTION:Rob Christie is facilitating a hands-on session for the Digital Learning Institute that makes xAPI feel simple. We’ll demo Build Capable XCL\, then you’ll bring a digital learning asset of your own\, turn it into a shareable link\, and watch the data come in live. \nWhat to Expect: \n\nSee how XCL turns any content\, an elearning module\, a video\, a PDF\, a web page\, into a trackable link with no LMS and no code.\nIn a live sandbox\, link your own asset\, explore each other’s\, and see interactions captured as xAPI in real time.\nExperiment with the dashboard and analytics\, and leave with a few “I could use this for…” ideas to apply straight to your sprint/professional context.

SUMMARY:Training Magazine Webinar
DESCRIPTION:AI and Accessibility: Passing the Scan\, Failing the User\nAI can generate content\, format a slide\, and confidently tell you a document passes WCAG 2.2 AA… right before it gets the accessibility wrong. This session was inspired by eight hours of vibe coding a single accessible one-pager: what AI got right\, where it quietly broke reading order and heading structure\, and why a perfect automated accessibility score isn’t the same as what works for real people. \nIn this session\, we will discuss how to bring intentional\, human-centered accessibility practices into AI-assisted workflows\, using AI to support learning and development without letting it decide what “accessible enough” means. You’ll leave with a practical way to evaluate AI-generated content\, know when to trust automated checkers (and when not to)\, and keep people at the center of your design decisions. \nLearning Objectives / Takeaways \n\nIdentify risks of using AI and vibe coding to support accessibility and inclusion\, including bias\, error\, and false confidence in “passing” results.\nEvaluate and correct AI-generated content for reading order\, heading structure\, and semantic accuracy.\nGenerate and verify alt text and image descriptions using popular AI-supported tools and models.\nDiscover how AI-powered tools can help you create closed captions and transcripts.\nBuild a workflow that combines automated accessibility checkers with real assistive technology testing.

SUMMARY:DevLearn 2026
DESCRIPTION:310: Un-Clutter Your Data for AI\nNovember 4\, 2026 2:30 pm – 3:30 pm \nCollecting data is the easy part. Collecting intelligent data that is easily read and utilized by AI powered systemsis where it gets tough. \nThis session provides guidance\, starting with collecting data that provides value and structure for current AI systems. No matter how you collect the data—xAPI\, cmi5\, Google Analytics\, others—it can come in fast and furious and quickly get messy. Most of the specifications are easy to implement\, i.e.\, there is not much coding involved\, if any at all. Where your time should be spent is planning what you want to collect and how that data will inform your AI systems to improve the output—in other words\, creating your data strategy. We will walk through decisions you need to make and how to build a strategy to collect data that your AI systems can use effectively to automate and drive adaptive learning systems. You will actively work through the design of a data strategy during the session \nIn this session\, you will learn to: \n\nExplain the importance of a data strategy and its role in enabling effective AI systems\nDesign a data strategy that supports the development\, deployment\, and scaling of solutions\nApply a structured process to implement and manage a successful data strategy for AI initiatives\nDocument and communicate a data strategy to ensure alignment\, governance\, and long-term usability\n\nParticipants would benefit from having an understanding of data principles with some baseline on learning data schemas. \nBD03: Buzz Discussion: Data & Measurement\nNovember 4\, 2026 3:45 pm – 4:15 pm \nJoin your peers and speaker’s selected for specific tracks for an informal gathering to share ideas\, ask questions and extend the learning with like-minded colleagues.
