At Advanced Learning Strategies, we’re building something more than just a library of resources—we’re creating a home for people who care deeply about how learning really works and where it’s going next.

But this is also personal. I find myself enthralled by what AI is unlocking—how close we are to transforming the way people learn and grow. After being laid off from a long corporate career, I’ve had the rare chance to build something that isn’t about a paycheck. It’s about impact. I feel incredibly lucky to be doing this work at this moment—and if you're here, I hope you’ll join me.

Original Research: Not Learning Styles. Not Personality Types. Something Deeper. A Better Way to Meet Learners Where They Are

Perhaps learning works  like spaghetti sauce?

Years ago, Dr. Howard Moskowitz uncovered what people really want from spaghetti sauce—and transformed the food industry with his discovery of "horizontal segmentation" for Prego’s Chunky Garden Style. The insight? There’s no one best sauce. There are different bests for different people.

We’re thrilled to announce that Dr. Moskowitz is bringing his breakthrough science—Mind Genomics—to Advanced Learning Strategies.

First target: compliance training, where engagement is low and the stakes are high. Together, we're decoding the hidden cognitive drivers behind learner engagement and performance.

Learning Debt: The Hidden Force Costing You Time, Budget, and Agility

Every quick training fix comes at a cost. Over time, those costs stack up — in rework, confusion, outdated content, and missed opportunities. That’s Learning Debt: the silent, accumulating risk that slows your teams, drains resources, and undermines business agility.

This white paper pulls back the curtain on a problem most L&D teams are too busy to name — and too stretched to solve. If you’re serious about building training that lasts, scales, and aligns with strategy, this is your blueprint. Download it now and lead the shift from reactive to resilient.

Meet David Stevens

With 30 years in learning and development, I’ve led teams, designed enterprise-wide strategies, and built programs that scale—but I’ve also had to rethink everything I thought I knew, more than once. My career spans roles as Director of Learning & Development at Prudential, senior instructional designer for Fortune 500 companies, and adjunct professor of writing and communication. I’ve pioneered AI-assisted training, implemented Agile learning ecosystems, and developed scalable solutions that balance human insight with emerging technology. This journey hasn’t just been about adapting to change—it’s been about anticipating it and helping others do the same.
