EXPOD104: From Hours to Minutes: Build and Update Training with AI

November 4, 2026 11:55 am - 12:25 pm

What if turning a manual into a training course took minutes instead of weeks? In this session, see how Blackboard® LMS can turn your existing source material (whether it's SOPs, regulations, policy manuals or certification content) into course module designs, content, practice activities, assessments and interactive elements. Blackboard LMS’s integrated AI helps you build more engaging courses in a fraction of the time, with reviewers able to check, refine and approve output before it reaches learners. Whether you’re a training professional or a subject matter expert who builds training programs, you’ll see how AI speeds up onboarding, compliance and continuing education programs, and how it makes updates faster when policies change. No coding required.

Presenter:  Jason Don Forsythe – Lead Solutions Engineer at Blackboard

During this session, you will learn:

  • See AI design tools in action: watch how Blackboard LMS builds a training course from a real document.
  • Learn where AI fits into your build and revision workflow, including how to update content quickly when regulations change, and where human review is essential.
  • Experience the return on investment with tasks that usually take hours reduced to minutes.
