What are SmartPaths.
A SmartPath is a structured learning journey created for each individual in your team. It consists of a series of learning modules that are arranged in a specific sequence. Learners are required to follow this path and complete one module at a time to fully understand a particular topic or concept.
SmartPath is especially useful when learners need to be guided through concepts in a defined order to build a specific skill or capability effectively. It ensures consistent learning, progressive skill development, and better knowledge retention.
Below is an illustration that shows how a SmartPath works:
Consider this scenario: you want to improve sales effectiveness across your sales team, with a focus on building two critical skills — Effective Opening and Objection Handling. This is where SmartPath helps.
How SmartPath Works?
SmartPath follows a bottom-up approach.
Before creating a SmartPath, you first create the modules that will be part of it. In this case, you would create two modules:
- Effective Opening
- Objection Handling
Next, you add segments to each module.
For example:
- Module 1: Effective Opening may include following segments:
- 1 SmartFeed
- 1 Quiz
- 1 Survey
- Module 2: Objection Handling may include following segments:
- 2 SmartFeeds
- 2 Quizzes
- 2 Coachings
You can add as many segments as required under each module, depending on the depth of learning you want to achieve.
Once the modules are ready, they are encapsulated into a SmartPath, such as “Sales Effectiveness Excellence.” This SmartPath can then be assigned to your users, guiding them step by step through the learning journey.
An added advantage is reusability — all modules and SmartPaths you create can be reused multiple times across teams, roles, or learning programs.
