Instructure and Brandon Hall Group have teamed up to work on a research project about the changing nature of work and the increasing significance of lifelong learning. Working with Brandon Hall Group, Instructure has been recognized as an Eminence Partner, which is the indication of a strategic move to enhance the industry’s knowledge of how continuous learning is transforming workforce development.
This collaboration happens at a moment when sudden changes in skill demand almost immediately make organizations reconsider their use of classical education and employee development. The shelf-life of many skills is so short that the pressure on businesses to regularly reskill and upskill their employees is significantly increasing. Therefore, the two will look at how this new type of learner is going through a flexible learning experience that is more career-oriented and that goes far beyond formal education.
Having worked with learners in K-12, higher education, and professional settings, Instructure has a rare cross-lifecycle perspective to the initiative. Such a vantage point can help understand how people’s learning behaviors change as they move from the highly structured school setting to the relatively self-directed, skills-based development that takes place in careers.

One of the primary elements of this partnership is to produce a Bellwether Research Report that will cover new trends in workforce learning and capability building. The purpose of the report is to offer clear, practical knowledge to HR leaders, L&D professionals, and business executives who wish to make their training activities have concrete business results and a resilient workforce in the long run.

Instructure has also been recognized as a Smartchoice® Preferred Provider, reinforcing its position as a trusted partner in delivering impactful learning solutions. “Learning extends beyond graduation and continues throughout a person’s life,” said Melissa Loble, Chief Learning Officer at Instructure. “As today’s learners expect continuous development throughout their careers, organizations must rethink how they support skills-driven learning at every stage. Through this partnership, we are contributing research and insight to help define what effective lifelong learning looks like in practice.”
The collaboration highlights a larger trend in the industry. It focuses on linking education, skills development, and jobs into a seamless journey.
