Get ready for an easier-to-use, more robust, and more engaging learning experience. The myLearning 2.0 project—launched by the university and health system in 2023—announced today that it has chosen Cornerstone OnDemand to replace the current learning management system vendor, United Laboratories, which has been in place since 2008.
The more modern platform was identified by Johns Hopkins leadership with input from hundreds of faculty, staff, and administrators who use myLearning daily. It will go live in spring 2025.
Tina Cole, director of Learning and Development, says that the software, which will support both professional development and compliance training, stands out in three broad areas:
Ease of access
- Mobile accessibility. Learners can access courses and training materials from a desktop, laptop, tablet, or smartphone.
- User-friendly interface. The intuitive design of myLearning 2.0 will make it easy for users to navigate the platform, find courses easily, and track their progress without technical barriers.
Wide range of learning resources
- Diverse content types. The platform supports content that caters to different learning styles, including video tutorials, interactive e-courses, webinars, podcasts, and reading materials.
- Access to LinkedIn Learning. Users will be able to access LinkedIn Learning content directly and track their progress without having to go to another learning platform.
Interactive and engaging learning
- Gamification. Elements such as badges and certificates can motivate learners by making the learning process more engaging and rewarding.
- Social learning. The platform offers tools such as discussion forums and group activities that allow users to collaborate, share ideas, and learn from each other.
In addition, Cole says, the new technology offers an intuitive, user-friendly interface that simplifies navigation and can easily integrate with other initiatives, such as JHU's Career Architecture project. It can scale to accommodate a growing number of users and training needs, and it provides tools to manage and track compliance-related training.
It also offers robust analytics and reporting tools to help both learners and managers track employees' progress, and it helps identify areas for improvement. This data-driven approach supports informed decision making and strategic planning for professional development.
The platform, she says, has the flexibility to evolve as technology and learning methodologies advance.
In FY24, JHU had close to 100,000 course completions for compliance training and professional development. Approximately 85,000 employees using the current myLearning platform will be migrated to myLearning 2.0.
