What is a Learning Design System and Why Does it Matter?
The benefits of a Learning Design System extend far beyond the creation of individual courses. In today’s fast-paced educational environment, organizations must be agile and responsive to the needs of their learners. An LDS not only supports this agility but also empowers organizations to deliver high-quality, inclusive, and engaging learning experiences.

Starting a cool new course design, excited to jump into the process, and we are met with resistance, lack of interest, or - my personal favourite - that glazed over look in their eyes. As instructional designers, we know how important each step of the process is when designing learning experiences, and no matter how much we may wish we could change this sometimes - the quality of the final product is highly dependent on our relationship with the Subject Matter Expert (SME).
