Prose was recently featured in Ed Tech Brief, where Justin Belmont, CEO & Founder, weighed in on the vital role that accessibility and personalization play in the future of online education. From tailored learning paths to mobile-first design, these strategies are redefining how learners connect with content, no matter where they are or how they learn best.
Here’s what Justin had to say:
Personalized learning keeps educators engaged
Topic: Customize professional development based on unique needs.
Quote: “One standout EdTech tool is Coursera for Educators. It's not just a library of courses—it tailors learning paths based on individual goals, skill gaps, and even teaching styles. What makes this approach so important is that professional development isn't one-size-fits-all—teachers are as unique as their students. By personalizing the experience, tools like this keep educators engaged and empowered, helping them grow in ways that actually matter to their classrooms. Plus, the ability to learn at your own pace? Total game-changer for busy teachers juggling a million things.”

Mobile-first design boosts engagement and retention
Topic: Make learning accessible through micro-content and mobile optimization.
Quote: “We've helped e-learning companies boost accessibility by making their content mobile-first and microlearning-friendly. One strategy that worked? Breaking long modules into bite-sized, swipeable lessons optimized for on-the-go learning. We worked with a client to revamp their content for a platform like TalentLMS, ensuring videos, quizzes, and interactive elements were seamless on mobile. The result? Higher engagement, better course completion rates, and a huge uptick in learner retention. The lesson? If your training isn't designed for mobile, you're losing learners before they even start.”

Deliver better outcomes with tailored and accessible learning
Learners today expect more than static content. They want flexibility, relevance, and intuitive design. Personalizing the experience and meeting users where they are (literally, on their phones) creates a deeper connection to the material and drives better results across the board.
Key takeaways:
- Personalization leads to more effective, relevant learning, especially in professional development.
- Microlearning and mobile optimization improve completion and retention rates.
- Accessible design broadens reach and levels the playing field for all learners.
Bonus feature: How Prose supports accessible, customized e-learning content
In today’s fast-moving digital education landscape, accessibility and personalization are essential components to success. At Prose, we help e-learning platforms and educators create inclusive, user-centered content that adapts to the learner, not the other way around. Here's how we support scalable, impactful learning experiences:
- Adaptive copywriting for learning platforms: Not every learner or educator absorbs information the same way. That’s why we design platform copy that meets users where they are. Whether writing course instructions for beginner-level students, resource hubs for teachers, or navigation text for non-native speakers, our content is always clear, inclusive, and outcome-driven. The goal: to reduce confusion, build confidence, and keep learning moving forward.
- Mobile-first, bite-sized learning content: Modern learners are mobile, and their attention is limited. We specialize in breaking down complex concepts into digestible formats, like micro-modules, tap-through quizzes, and short-form lessons. Our writing style is clean, engaging, and purpose-built for mobile devices, making it easier for learners to engage in short bursts, anytime and anywhere.
- Personalized email sequences and onboarding: The learning experience starts before the first lesson and continues long after. We design email sequences and onboarding flows that nurture learners through the full journey. From warm welcomes and progress nudges to reminders and re-engagement prompts, every message is timed and tailored to maximize clarity, relevance, and motivation.
Customized, accessible content opens doors for learners of all backgrounds and abilities. By blending thoughtful UX writing with smart communication flows, Prose helps edtech brands and educators scale their impact without losing the personal touch. The result? More engaged learners, stronger retention, and a learning experience that feels as human as it is high-tech.
