What you’re reading: This is a drop from the Docebo DRIP (Data, Research, and Insights Program). Every two weeks, we release fresh, data-packed insights. Expect hard stats, sharper truths, and takeaways you can use right now to elevate L&D.
If a tree falls in the forest and no one’s around to hear it, does it make a sound? Here’s the L&D version: If your people can’t find your training, does it even matter?
Turns out, 61% of learners struggle to find relevant content. And when they’re stuck digging through endless systems, folders, or portals, frustration takes over fast.
It’s not just them. 56% of L&D teams admit their content is scattered across multiple systems — a fragmentation problem that makes discovery a nightmare. The result? Learners throw up their hands and say what we’ve all thought: “There’s too much content — and none of it feels relevant.”
This isn’t about apathy (only 10% of teams cite that as the real obstacle). People want to learn — but they need you to make it easy. That means curating content that actually connects, trimming the noise, and delivering it where learners already are.
The good news? L&D knows what’s at stake. Nearly 9 out of 10 prioritize keeping content evergreen and evolving, while more than half are focused on richer, more customized experiences. That’s the right direction. Because relevance isn’t just about what you create — it’s about how quickly and easily learners can get to it.
The bottom line
If your learners can’t find what they need, they’ll stop looking. Solve the discovery problem, and you’ll unlock the engagement you’ve been chasing.
