Online Event: AI in 2025: Connected Tools and Emerging L&D Workflows

Last year, we explored ChatGPT. This year, AI has learnt to talk to your other tools. Join Karl Hartley & Alesha Honnor for a practical update on how AI is reshaping L&D workflows in 2025.

We'll explore what happens when AI connects directly with the software you already use, look at new workflow patterns emerging in the industry, and discuss what's actually working for L&D teams right now.

See real examples in action: Claude AI creating storyboards using Canva, ChatGPT autonomous agents that research and draft your projects overnight, NotebookLM transforming any document into explainer videos and podcasts, and ElevenLabs bringing your training scenarios to life with realistic character voices. Use Gemini's Nano Banana to maintain consistent characters across your visual content. They're tools you can use today. We'll focus on practical implementation, not sci-fi scenarios.
