Learning & Development Technology and Vendor Decisions for 2026
Peer benchmark data on how enterprise L&D teams are prioritizing AI, evaluating tools, and making tech decisions in 2026.
L&D leaders are under pressure to modernize their tech stacks while still proving impact. But most are working with complex, multi-vendor environments that create friction, limit adoption, and slow down decision-making.
That tension is driving change. Nine in ten L&D leaders are planning updates to their tech stack, with a clear focus on new capabilities, especially AI over efficiency gains. At the same time, approval of bottlenecks and underperforming core systems are making those changes harder to execute.
This Decision Intelligence Benchmark gives you a clear view into how your peers are navigating these challenges and where they’re placing their bets.
Inside, you’ll discover:
- Where L&D teams are increasing investment, including the 76% prioritizing learning experience platforms
- Why new capabilities including AI that are the top driver of tech decisions
- How tech stack complexity is impacting adoption and workflow efficiency
- Where leaders are most dissatisfied with current tools, especially LMS platforms
- How approval challenges are shaping vendor selection and change strategies
