Report: 500 L&D Professionals Share Their Top AI Training Challenges

Second Nature surveyed over 500 L&D professionals around the world, to learn about the biggest challenges that they face when it comes to implementing AI-powered training

The primary challenge revolves around maximizing training effectiveness on a tight budget. Budget constraints were cited as the top obstacle to adopting new AI trends and for L&D in general. Lack of AI expertise came in close second, showing that finance isn’t the only reason for L&D hesitancy around AI-powered training. 

At the same time, L&D professionals worry about driving measurable skills improvement and proving ROI on their training programs. Skills improvement is both the most important KPI for any training program and the one that’s hardest to achieve, cited by over half of survey participants. Two out of every five L&D professionals said that demonstrating ROI is a top concern. 

Key takeaways: 

  • Lack of budget is the biggest challenge to AI adoption for over 50% of L&D professionals
  • Lack of AI expertise is the second biggest challenge to AI adoption
  • Skills improvement is the top KPI for measuring training success, but also the hardest to achieve
  • Tight budgets for learning and development teams and measuring training effectiveness and learner engagement are the top two challenges facing L&D teams
