With over 317 million people in the US and over 6.7 billion potential customers in the world, personalizing training seems logical.

Targeted mass marketing was developed by direct mail businesses in the 1960s and 1970s to enable customers to be segmented by age, geography, or income. Today, thanks to the internet, social media, and our always-connected society, more information is generated about who we are and what we do than ever before. And all of this incredibly rich data can be used by organizations to offer us products, services, and marketing that is uniquely tailored to meet our needs in increasingly individual ways.

Could it be because learners have been conditioned by very poor learning experiences over the past two decades, combined with the kinks of technological innovation? Or is it because learning has typically been designed as a one-size-fits-all solution, despite the fact that humans are not clones?
