Watershed is a renowned brand in the learning and development industry, dedicated to positively impacting the effectiveness of all learning professionals. With nearly 20 years of experience, they have a rich heritage that started with the founding of Rustici Software by Mike Rustici, a global expert in SCORM and learning systems interoperability. During the period of 2002-2012, while technology advanced, corporate learning technology remained stagnant.

Rustici Software recognized the need for a modern learning ecosystem and in 2012, they launched Project Tin Can, an initiative that led to the development of the Tin Can API, now known as the Experience API or xAPI. This revolutionized the way organizations track and analyze learning data, allowing for the inclusion of mobile, social, and real-world learning experiences. In 2014, Watershed was born, offering a visionary learning analytics platform that attracted industry giants like Google, AT&T, and YUM! Brands.

Their platform enables companies to consolidate data from various learning systems, analyze social and informal learning events, award badges, and link training with performance data. Watershed's commitment to learning analytics continues to thrive. They are recognized as the leading provider in Learning Record Store (LRS) and learning analytics products.

Their insights empower learning professionals to improve operational efficiency, reduce unnecessary spending, and enhance the overall learner experience. With Watershed, developing people truly makes the world a better place
