The world of e-learning has undergone a significant change in recent times. With new technology emerging at every turn, the Learning and Development domain has seen many innovative ways of learning. Adaptive learning, though nothing new, is being incorporated in the corporate world to make sure each individual with diverse learning skills, goals, preferences, and strengths gets equal access to learning.

Manufacturing training is an essential part of any manufacturing industry. According to a Deloitte (2015) study, 4.6 million manufacturing jobs will be needed in the coming decade, but out of that 2.4 million jobs are expected to go unfilled due to the skills gap present now. USD 454 billion might be the cost of a lack of qualified talent on the manufacturing GDP in 2028. Between now and 2028, a persistent shortage of skills will cause USD 2.5 trillion in reduced output.

Bloom’s Taxonomy was created in the 1950s. With a group of psychologists, Benjamin Bloom created Bloom’s Taxonomy, a hierarchical model of the cognitive skills involved in learning.
