E-Learning Design and Web Site Services

 
 
 

We build all types of online blended learning solutions using the power of the web and personal computing.

E-Learning Authoring
The use of online learning is growing and will continue to grow. Online learning can serve as a very effective learning tool, and can often create large financial savings.
     
We build effective and compliant E-learning courses that launch through the client's learning management system (LMS) or independent of an LMS. E-Learning, when designed well, can create the desired performance outcomes for the learner, while saving money in instructor and travel costs. Even more importantly, E-Learning offers the ability for learners in many geographical locations to access the training when needed, as needed. Contact us for examples of our E-Learning work and whether it's the right choice for your business.

Web Sites
What is a web site supposed to accomplish?
     The answer to that question depends completely on the business application. In all cases, effective design and maintenance is paramount in order to achieve the desired outcome at the lowest possible cost.
     Learning portals are our specialty. For our larger corporate customers we ask, why build a web that's only based on communication, when it could also be designed to meet a large portion of your training needs? It is entirely possible to dramatically reduce the face-to-face training needed within a corporation, by effectively utilizing the power of your intranet. It is not sufficient to simply put information onto web pages. The web, when properly designed according to the actual work needs of the employees, can be super-charged into an Electronic Performance Support System! We've proven it can be done, and would be happy to share our results with you.
     Simple web sites can be used by small businesses as an inexpensive 'storefront' to the world. Unfortunately, many small web sites are either 'under-designed' or 'overly-complex'. If they're overly-complex they become more expensive to maintain, without providing any additional benefit to the business. If they're under-designed, they provide little or no benefit to the business because they don't effectively market your business. A web design that is too elementary may even detract from the business. We design a web presence that is balanced to the business need.
     Complex web sites can be used internally or externally for larger businesses and specifically in the learning environment. Most important to complex web sites is the foundation: a clear business plan and structure to ensure the large site is maintainable and sustainable. Large sites can easily spiral out of control with multiple authors and formats, huge growth, and what we refer to as the 'everyone wants to be a web designer' syndrome. The sooner the better in bringing existing portals under the control of a clear business plan. We analyze and design effective large portals based on sustainable business models.
