Why xAPI Profiles Matter: From Data Chaos to Structured Learning Evidence

Following on from our May session, this webinar explores what xAPI Profiles are and why they matter.
Join Matthew Kliewer from Torrance Learning as he leads this session on how xAPI Profiles bring structure to learning data, making it more consistent, interoperable, and useful across systems.
As the ADL Profile Server is phased out, the conversation is shifting from what a profile is to how we actually use them in practice. Matt will share how TorranceLearning is supporting the ongoing use of profiles and what this means for the future of learning data ecosystems.
If you’re working with xAPI, learning data, or building connected learning environments, this session will help you understand why structure matters.
