State of L&D and AI Adoption 2026

Survey Overview

Artificial intelligence is reshaping work, and Learning & Development is right in the middle of that transformation. Yet much of the conversation is driven by headlines, predictions, and isolated success stories rather than evidence. 

This research, conducted by the Learning Guild in collaboration with learning strategist, author, and researcher Megan Torrance, explores what organizations are actually doing with AI today. We examine AI adoption, workforce capability building, changing roles, implementation practices, and the evolving role of Learning & Development. 

In this survey, "AI" includes generative AI tools, AI-enabled applications, automation and agents, and other artificial intelligence technologies used to support work, learning, decision-making, or business processes.

Whether your organization is just beginning to explore AI or has already integrated it into everyday work, your perspective is valuable. Your responses will help build one of the industry's most comprehensive benchmarks of how AI is changing learning and work. 

Your responses are completely anonymous. If however you provide your email address for optional follow up, please note that it will not be added to any marketing lists or sold to any 3rd parties.

Thank you for contributing to this research. 

Estimated completion time: ~15 minutes.
