Chief Learning Officer magazine surveyed its Business Intelligence Board (BIB) to assess and benchmark learning analytics practices. This report is based upon the findings obtained by the magazine from 802 completed responses to the survey conducted in January 2010. Learning analytics can assist CLOs in measuring and monitoring both effectiveness and impact, as well the overall goals of their learning organizations.
 
In this report, key findings include:
 
Optimism Persists
More than three-quarters of BIB members responded that their organizations were faring about as well as expected or better than expected in the current economy.
 
Measurement Satisfaction Rises
Approximately 37 percent of BIB members were either satisfied or very satisfied with their organization’s L&D measurement, a slight increase from 2009.
 
Manual Processes Prevalent
More than 1 in 5 reported that learning metrics processes are automated from an LMS.
 
Decrease in Post-Learning Assessment
While organizations administer many types of post-learning assessments, satisfaction surveys remain the most common method for acquiring feedback on learning initiatives.
