How AI Transforms Customer Education at Scale

Most customer education teams are measuring the wrong things. The ones who are not are already thinking differently about AI.

Shawn Dinnocenti did not arrive at this perspective through theory. She arrived through data. As a customer education leader at Docebo, she has spent years connecting training outcomes to business results, tying knowledge articles to support ticket volume, and turning enrollment numbers into a reason to celebrate with marketing. Her work is grounded in one belief: if you cannot link learning to what actually matters to the business, you will always be on the outside looking in.

In this episode, I speak with Shawn about what it looks like when customer education earns a seat at the table. She shares how AI is enabling her team to move customers from adopters to advocates at scale, why outcome-tied enablement works better than training mandates, and what separates the teams who will thrive with AI from those who will end up with the modern equivalent of death by PowerPoint. For Shawn, the distinction is not about the tools you use. It is about whether you are clear on the problem you are trying to solve.

Some curious takeaways:

• Link every enablement initiative to the outcomes your customers already care about
• Let AI surface patterns in your data and act on what is actually working for them
• Ask what problem you are solving before deciding if training is even the answer
