People need to learn faster, not less.
Alma’s learning engineers build complete interactive courses, and whole programs, for universities and companies.
With AI, the same person can take on bigger problems.
01
Education has mostly sorted people
Through most of its history, education selected a few people for the most intellectually demanding roles while everyone else did physical work. The sorting is still with us, and most people are never fully developed.
02
AI works the way the tractor did
Some say that with AI we no longer need educated people. We think the opposite. AI gives anyone the power to do intellectually demanding work with real results, the way the tractor let one farmer work a much larger field.
03
The limit is what people know and can do
Problems have never been in short supply: there are diseases we have not defeated in hundreds of years. What runs short is the knowledge and skill to work on them, so people need to learn faster and more flexibly.
We want to make people smarter, so that they can make smarter choices about their own lives and about society as a whole.
We build courses where more of every hour is spent doing.
Our learning engineers work from the material a university or a company already has.
75%of every hour is active work
That is the share in a typical three-credit course, where a student practices a conversation out loud or revises a draft and hands it in again.
The people who know the subject decide what is taught
Your faculty or your experts set the direction and approve the course before anyone takes it. We do the production.
Every person on your side is a client.
Alma’s learning engineers work as consultants to universities and to companies that build courses for their own people.
You hire us for what we know
So we have no need to show it off. Our job is to be understood and to support each person we work with.
We act before you have to ask
If we see something that could keep your course from succeeding, we say so and deal with it.
Every objection is something to learn from
So is every problem a student reports. Nobody knows which skills will matter next, so the only way we stay useful is to keep learning.
