CompTIA plays a pivotal role in the global technical ecosystem. As the largest vendor-neutral training and credentialing organization for technology professionals, CompTIA creates career-advancing opportunities across a wide range of disciplines—cybersecurity, infrastructure, data, and more.
With the support of Scriptorium and other partners, CompTIA consolidated fragmented workflows into a unified ecosystem for structured learning content. The transformation has improved production efficiency and allows CompTIA to deliver global content without pausing ongoing content production. Additionally, it allows instructional designers to invest in compelling learning experiences instead of spending their time manually formatting content.

Your customers expect intelligent, AI-powered experiences. Is your content strategy ready for an AI-driven world? After a popular panel at ConVEx San Jose, the team at CIDM brought the conversation online in this webinar.
AI is going to require us to think about our content across the organization, across the silos, because at the end of the day, the AI overlord, the chatbot is out there slurping up all this information and regurgitating it. The chatbot doesn’t care that, for example, I work in group A, Marianne’s in group B, and Dipo’s in group C, and we don’t talk to each other. The chatbot, the world, the consumer, sees us all in the same company. If we’re all part of the same organization, why shouldn’t it be consistent?

We have several great events lined up for the summer of 2025. Here’s where you can see Scriptorium in action.
Trying to eliminate costly content errors, increase brand consistency, and create content at scale? Consider content reuse.
In this episode, Alan Pringle, Bill Swallow, and Christine Cuellar explore how structured learning content supports the learning experience. They also discuss the similarities and differences between structured content for learning content and technical (techcomm) content.
Even if you are significantly reusing your learning content, you’re not just putting the same text everywhere. You can add personalization layers to the content and tailor certain parts of the content that are specific to your audience’s needs. If you were in a copy-and-paste scenario, you’d have to manually update it every single time you want to make a change. That scenario also makes it a lot more difficult to update content as you modify it for specific audiences over time, because you may not find everywhere a piece of information has been used and modified when you need to update it.
