Where it fits in the SDI system

SDI practitioner lens

From definition to decision

An LRS creates value when experience data from multiple systems must be combined into a coherent performance story. Its design should begin with governed questions, stable identities, and the outcomes leaders need to interpret.

01 / Decision it should inform

Use an LRS when cross-platform xAPI data will support a defined analysis, intervention, or compliance requirement that an LMS report cannot satisfy.

02 / What to watch for

Collecting statements without a durable taxonomy, ownership model, and decision cadence produces technically valid data that nobody trusts or uses.
