When I worked for a retail food and beverage company, everything was about the customer—especially what the customer would or wouldn’t like. As an example, to ensure that products met customer expectations, this company spent a good amount of time testing every single recipe before anything made it out the door. And, they followed up with customers to gather feedback once the product made it on the shelves.

When it comes to building eLearning, how do you do it? Do you just open up Articulate Storyline , have a look at the content that your SME has provided and then just start building it? Do you import a bunch of PowerPoint slides, add a player skin with the obligatory Next and Previous buttons, attach some word documents as resources, and then hit publish?

How do you spot a culture of accountability? That’s the challenge we talked about recently with our post on How to Identify a Culture of Accountability. Once you can spot an invigorating culture of accountability, the next step is building a culture of accountability yourself. Be sure to remember from Harry S. Truman, accountability starts at the top.

Our profession is undergoing a transformation, moving away from rigid, one-size-fits-all methodologies. Instead, project managers are embracing dynamic and adaptable frameworks that carefully consider project and product variables to determine the most suitable development approaches and project life cycles.

Mind-numbing boredom and hair-tearing frustration happen. They’re facts of life. But the thought of learning something new shouldn’t put people on autopilot. If the learner comes out of an educational offering wishing for that chunk of their life back something probably needs to be improved. This can be just as true of workflows and day-to-day processes as training.

Instructional design requires a lot of time, energy and resources to ensure truly remarkable results. That’s why the growing use of Reusable Learning Objects (RLOs) can be a great addition to the arsenal of tools available to course developers. These tools can be creatively reused to save time when designing eLearning lessons or creating editable course templates.

One of the major benefits to using WordPress compared to other content management systems is that you can easily expand its functionality. In fact, this is a primary reason why a WordPress learning management system (LMS) is so conducive to online learning programs. For example, it is easy to implement a forum when the time comes, enable badging & awards, activate leaderboards, chat functionality, help desks, and so on.

Fear is generally thought of as a negative emotion. Google it and you will find thousands of articles, books and blog posts about how to face your fear and overcome it so you can be more successful, happy or brilliant. Yet fear serves a very useful purpose in our growth as a species. Fear is one of the key behaviors that keeps us alive and has done so since the time of our genetic ancestors.

In the training world, it is not uncommon to hear: “Yeah, but…” and it’s time to put an end to this unhealthy relationship. It’s a relationship that is holding us back from success. It is holding us back from moving forward. It is holding us back from seeing the future. This “Yeah, but…” relationship is further separating learning and development from the people who need us the most, at a time when our help is most needed.

Scenarios (video or otherwise) are a fantastic way to immerse learners in the learning. They add realism and context, and can give learners control so that they have those all-important practice opportunities. However, anyone who's created a lot of scenarios realise that they're not enough to cover some topics. In many cases, you need to drop into instructional mode to deliver some information for the learner to make sense of what's going on.

There are plenty of great authoring tools for developing eLearning, but the one you select could directly impact your course's outcomes. Depending upon your learners’ needs and your organization’s performance goals, you could be overlooking considerations that impact the both effectiveness of your courses and how long it takes to finish them. From general capabilities to specific workflow structures, some aspects are critical when it comes to learning objectives and deadlines.

As the trend of selling online courses continues to grow I have seen a slight shift in the way these premium courses are offered. Most people slap a price onto their course as soon as it is ready to be sold. Sure, there may be variants in how the course is priced (subscription versus one-time payment). The course may also have multiple tiers depending on what is included.

Whenever someone talks about the “future of learning” nowadays, the same topics inevitably come up: augmented reality, virtual reality, machine learning, artificial intelligence, and data. But, while they’re discussed in future tense, several of these “trendy topics” aren’t exactly new. For example, I managed a virtual reality attraction at Walt Disney World 10 years ago.

“What should the price of my course be?” This is probably the single most asked question for anyone selling an online course, and with good reason. Pricing is difficult. You have to find the right balance between communicating the value of the course content and what the market is willing to pay. In many cases, your price-point will be determined by trial and error.

Someone recently asked how you would go about measuring culture change, and I thought it’s an interesting question. I’ll think ‘out loud’ about what might be the possibilities. A learning culture is optimal for organizational innovation and agility, and it’s likely that not all elements are already in place. So it’s plausible that you’d want to change, and if you do, you’d like to know how it’s going.

Your sales team has a mix of skillsets and experience levels. Some are really great at connecting with customers, but others lack self-confidence and may underperform. Likewise, some reps are really confident and think they know what they’re doing, but don’t. With reps at so many different career stages, it’s important to find a solution that works for all of them.

Baseball and your Learning Organization. As an admitted Cleveland Indians fan and gracious World Series loser, I thought long and hard about how I could somehow link America’s Pastime to this unique blog. I could talk about learning techniques utilized in the past seven games and why players were less intimidated by pitches they encountered the second and third time around, or possibly what a combined 176 years of waiting can teach us in preparing for the future.

Aligning Learning Needs with Business Process. It appears that the work of a learning professional is never done. In order to establish an effective learning program, there must be a great consideration for the future needs of the day to day business, and the workforce themselves. One cannot simply establish a program and walk away stating that it is as perfect as it will always be and there is nothing more we can do as an organization.
