• Corporate Learning: The Shift To Custom Remote Training Delivery In Unprecedented Times

  Large corporations have had years to weigh in-person training against digitally delivered learning. In the past, things moved slowly and carefully, as is typical in large organizations with complex budgeting processes. Learning teams formed committees that met for many months and sometimes years. Chief human resources officers (CHROs) and other executives, including the CFOs, reviewed findings and considered their options. Speed was often not the strongest driving force.

• Utilizing Curriculum Mapping To Develop A Successful Customized Remote Learning Strategy

  When starting a project, L&D teams often begin with a pile of content of everything ever taught or trained in. But starting with content stalls a remote learning strategy before it ever gets off the ground. Curriculum mapping effectively organizes and prioritizes program goals, learning objectives, existing content, source materials, and potential assessment strategies. It produces a living, breathing document customized to the needs of a situation, which may take the form of a spreadsheet, table, chart, or even a mind map for brainstorming. The end result here isn’t prescribed deliverables but a focused organization of content topics and their objectives.

• Custom Remote Learning Or Off-The-Shelf? A Classic Dilemma For L&D Managers

  How do you know when it’s time to invest in custom eLearning? Maybe the question is better asked in reverse: When does it not make sense to invest in custom digital learning? Companies usually don’t make the investment in custom digital learning for material that’s low-priority, generic, or focused mostly on compliance and checking a box that training has been completed. Smaller companies can accomplish this type of training with classroom presentations, often using slide decks from two decades ago followed by a written test. The test gets filed, the team member is deemed compliant, and the company can say it provided the training as mandated. Larger companies or those with a geographically diverse workforce can easily and inexpensively obtain courses on topics like blood-borne pathogens or lockout/tagout, which can be delivered digitally, with records being stored in an LMS.

• How Can Custom Interactive Training Content Improve Remote Training Effectiveness?

  You know the feeling all too well—trudging through eLearning that’s as riveting as moss growing on bricks.

• 3 Examples Of Successful Curriculum Mapping

  Effective curriculum mapping can be customized for any client’s needs. It doesn’t need to be formulaic and can be the cornerstone of effective Instructional Design.
