Valamis is a word that comes from the Eastern Finnish dialect, which means “ready and complete”.
A learning path is a flexible collection of learning goals that you need to complete to learn a new skill, advance your career development internally or for an onboarding process.
When you complete a learning path, you will be awarded a badge and a certificate for completing the learning path.
Learning paths can be used to build learning plans and broader curriculums.
Examples of learning goals inside a learning path: self-paced learning modules (or lessons), videos, webinars, classroom training, assignments, and so on.
The Experience API (xAPI) is a learning specification, used to collect and stream variety of user actions from a wide range of digital touchpoints.
In other words, using xAPI gives you the ability to track learning; how it impacts employees’ performance and how the learning process can be connected to real business outcomes.
