SharePoint Workflows And Version Control For Learning Managers
In the corporate world, Microsoft’s SharePoint has caught on like wildfire. Many functional business areas, including learning management, have access to this enterprise content-management solution. Learning managers have discovered how easy it is to store content in SharePoint. However, there are many learning management challenges beyond storing training content. These challenges include:
- Finding useful preexisting course materials in MS Word, PDFs, and media files.
- Bringing preexisting course material up to date.
- Collecting and organizing new and updated material from course presenters.
- Ensuring course developers and reviewers follow a robust content-review cycle.
- Providing finalized course materials to the right people at the right time.
So, how can the eBook SharePoint Workflows And Version Control For Learning Managers help learning managers overcome these challenges?
About The eBook: Addressing Learning Management Challenges Successfully
In the eBook, you will explore how SharePoint’s workflow and versioning capabilities can help learning managers solve all of the above challenges. Here, in brief, is what these features do:
- SharePoint workflows orchestrate the progress of training materials through the stages of development, collaboration, editing, finalization, and approval. They embody the consistent flow of events and actions that result in approved course material. Once defined, SharePoint workflows are ready for reuse, streamlining the enhancement of existing course material and the development of new courses.
- SharePoint versioning tracks successive iterations of training content as content team members create, review, edit, and approve content. Throughout the material development workflow, versioning helps learning managers ensure content team members are on the same page, both literally and figuratively.
- SharePoint subsite templates contain both SharePoint workflows and versioning settings. Templates are reusable patterns of SharePoint sites that contain predefined workflows and versioning settings. For creating a new course, or updating an existing offering, SharePoint site templates make an entire set of predefined development processes available in a single click.
Learning and Development managers face many challenges in ensuring that training content stays current, content teams collaborate effectively, and learners stay involved in their courses before, during, and after training delivery.
