Designing Learning Paths by Role: Practical Examples – Curriculum Guide

Everyone uses the same Manabu2, but what people need to learn, how deeply, and in what order varies a lot with their position and the role they're expected to play. This guide walks through what kind of learning path to design for each role, with concrete examples.


Why role-based paths matter

Giving every user the same learning path causes problems like these:

Too shallow for some people

Too hard for others

Designing paths by role lets you deliver just the learning people need, to the people who need it.


Role ①: Paths for learners (general staff)

The goal of a learner path is to give people the minimum knowledge and behaviors they need to do their job.

Example structure
Learner path
 ├ Manabu2 basics
 ├ Core knowledge for the job
 ├ Cautions and things not to do
 └ Comprehension check quiz
Characteristics
  • Keep jargon to a minimum
  • Can be finished in a short time
  • Clearly separate required from optional

Role ②: Paths for HR

For HR paths, the operations and administration perspective is what matters.

Example structure
HR path
 ├ How Manabu2 fits together
 ├ Managing users and departments
 ├ Reading progress and reports
 └ Common operational pitfalls
Characteristics
  • Covers the "why," not just the clicks
  • Includes how to handle problems
  • Keeps collaboration with other departments in mind

Role ③: Paths for executives and managers

The goal of an executive path is not to understand every detail.

Example structure
Executive path
 ├ Why we adopted Manabu2, and the big picture
 ├ How to read learning status
 ├ Where we are with AI / DX
 └ What you need to make decisions
Characteristics
  • Gives the big picture quickly
  • Leaves out specialist operations
  • Focuses on numbers and metrics

Role ④: Paths for curriculum managers

Curriculum manager paths are for the people who design the learning itself.

Example structure
Curriculum manager path
 ├ The overall learning structure
 ├ Designing courses and lessons
 ├ Designing quizzes and tests
 ├ Designing and improving paths
 └ Real-world design examples
Characteristics
  • Covers both principles and practice
  • Doesn't impose a single right answer
  • Assumes ongoing improvement and operation

Role ⑤: Paths for RAG managers and AI leads

RAG manager paths are for specialist roles that drive advanced use.

Example structure
RAG manager path
 ├ RAG / AI fundamentals
 ├ Organizing and managing internal data
 ├ Choosing the right agent for the job
 ├ Security and access control
 └ Use cases and how to improve them
Characteristics
  • Assumes some technical background
  • Expects trial and error
  • Emphasizes how it ties into operating rules

What every role-based path has in common

Whatever the role, the thinking behind a good learning flow is the same.
