Hi I am Ani Mukerji - I run the Learning Center Platform for LinkedIn's flagship Talent Solutions business .
Today I'll share our journey on how we started using data, not just from the LMS- but a number of our systems, to help our customers master our product so they could find the best talent for their organization. While my examples will be primarily in a technology domain and focused on customer training - I'll try to provide a few suggestions on how you might use some of these methods in your industry and for your organizations

Maria is a recruiter –
Boss bought LinkedIn’s Recruiter platform
Not tech savvy
Believes she is successful without the tool
Very limited time
Doesn’t talk to RM Juan
Unaware learning center exists
Juan is a Relationship Manager who works at LinkedIn - he manages Maria’s account
Is afraid to suggest training, because he has no visibility into what they have taken and has little knowledge of which classes to suggest
Has dozens of accounts and has very limited time and no access to CSOD reporting
He doesn’t have a good reason to talk to Maria except at renewal time
After the Learning Center was in operation for 1 year, we did a point in time study of the impact of training on our business – we pulled a whole bunch of reports and mashed it together with existing measures of customer success Renewal, Usage & NPS (Satisfaction) – the study concluded that…Customers Who Took At Least 1 Training Were 30% More Likely To Be Highly Satisfied.
Knowing where we were in 2013 and the result of this study, what are some measures you might have taken?
Since we knew training could impact customer satisfaction – it was important that we got customers like maria engaged in training.
We needed to use all the data we had at our disposal to target the right training to her and make this data available to Juan – so he could more effectively partner with the customers in his accounts
With the outbound transcript, user, curriculum feeds we could bring all our CSoD data into the DWH.
LHS Panels show Training Adoption by a customer (% of total seatholders taking training), Impact of training measured using a composite metric called Engagement Grade & Modality of training taken (Online Self Paced Tutorial, Tip Sheet/ Job Aid, Webinar or ILT Workshop)
Easy way to check impact of a quarterly training program with a customer on their platform engagement grade
Allows us to drill down into the details – in this case we can see seat holders in India prefer ILT training.
Show of hands if you have a learning analytics dashboard? How does our approach compare with yours?
These alerts leverage the same data set in the Data warehouse - using data on action taken in our platform LinkedIn Recruiter and comparing it to the data (or lack of) in the Learning Center
We haven’t fully automated this yet – but this is an example of where deep links to specific pieces of content are used to direct a customer/seat holder
Gets alerts when his customer is having trouble, along with suggestions of classes to solve their problem
Has easy visibility into the progress his customer is making on training
Can compare customers side by side to suggest similar learning paths when something is working well in his region
Has good reasons to call Maria, and build the relationship by adding value to her career & can shares data with Maria’s Boss to advocate for investing time in training
Takes basic training after provisioning integration triggers marketing nurture campaign w/ deep link, and is 80% more effective with 1 hour invested
Gets push notifications when she wasn’t even aware she was having an issue, with training recommendations to remediate the issue (e.g. did you know you could save your searches?)
LinkedIn employees see what she has taken and can prescribe the right training if she opens a ticket or in quarterly check-ins & RM checks in on learning progress and encourages her to stay engaged
Maria recommends training to her peers
She can’t imaging doing her job without us
Our current dashboard includes a few outcome measures and a few way to select users.
When I speak with our consultants I often hear them talk about subsets of users within an account and specific outcomes they want to achieve with them.
In 2015 – we might work on a project that provides more flexibility in this area.
Build consensus before starting
Don’t reinvent the wheel – tie your metrics to existing metrics & benchmarks being collected
If you are planning to track the effectiveness of your new hire orientation training effectiveness, get attrition and performance metric already being collected by the
Partner with a group that is already doing Business Intelligence or Analytics work
