Learning Pathways 🎓

Learning Pathways is the companion to your Employee Learning Platform. Group people by what they’re studying — leadership, technical skills, personal growth — and let them meet regularly to compare notes and stay accountable.

How it works

1. You define the groups by learning stream — leadership development, technical skills, personal growth, or any custom path that matches your platform.
2. Participants pick their group(s). People self-select which group they belong to from the options you’ve set up — and if they’re in several, choose which one to match in for the current cycle. Admins can also assign membership directly.
3. CoffeePals runs an independent match cycle per group on match day — pairs only form within the same group.
4. Each match card shows the group context so partners know what they share.
5. Anyone sitting out a cycle gets prioritised the next time their group runs.

Who it’s for

• Companies investing in an Employee Learning Platform who want learners to actually talk
• Learners who retain more by discussing what they’ve studied
• Learning and Development teams wanting community around their content

What you’ll configure

• Match groups and rosters
• Self-selection vs admin assignment — let people pick their own group, or assign them
• Group size — pairs, trios, or larger
• Frequency, day, and time
• Icebreakers and calendar scheduling

Ready to bring this to your team?

Setup takes about five minutes. CoffeePals handles the matching, the messaging, and the follow-up, so you can just watch the conversations happen.
