Manoj Kulkarni
Chief Executive Officer, Realizeit
Realizeit was born in 2007 from a desire to change the status quo of employee learning and training. We wanted fervently to apply our expertise and experience to transform learning in organizations away from the traditional and generic emphasis on tasks, content, and time spent on programs. We wanted to help companies and institutions ensure their people mastered the requisite level of knowledge, applied that knowledge in their roles, and held onto that knowledge over time.
We were a group of teachers, researchers, and technologists who had each come to the realization that verified, applicable, and retained individual mastery of knowledge translates to elevated human performance — something that benefits learners and their organizations.
At Realizeit, we strongly believe in the exponential power of people and platforms to drive that transformation. The epiphany behind our creation of the Realizeit platform was that an intelligent, AI-powered, and adaptive learning environment could deliver learning that would be meaningfully tailored to every individual learner, individual educator, and organization.
In the end, it’s all about realizing the true and complete value of learning for every learner, and ensuring you know they’ve learned what they need to know, easily and quickly — and that they’ll retain that knowledge for the long haul.
That’s the power of adaptive learning. We’re here to help you harness it.
Let’s realize it together!
We are passionate about infusing the art of teaching with the science of learning.
That’s why we built our system on rigorous research and significant instruction experience. As former educators, we recognize that everyone approaches learning differently. Teaching and training must be brought to and shaped for each learner, not the other way around.
We believe learning should be continuous, personalized, and evolving to help learners develop and refine mastery and keep their organizations agile and at peak performance.
We have the courage to always be authentic and the first of its kind, continuously striving to chart new territory.
We always focus on doing the right thing for every stakeholder.
We put ourselves in the shoes of every stakeholder and understand what matters to them. Empathy for the stakeholder guides how we design our technology and deliver services.
We are energized and motivated to deliver disruptive, transformational, and sustainable results and benefits.
