Your company needs training—and not just any training, but training that is specific to your company or products. There aren’t any pre-existing courses, and it’s difficult to know where to begin formatting your information. Should you build it on your own, or ask for help? Here are some factors to consider when deciding if working with a professional team, like BlueVolt’s Creative Services, might be right for you.
How interactive do you want your training to be?
There are a variety of resources available to make a training course simply—even by making a PowerPoint presentation. However, according to a 2021 study by Carnegie Mellon University, interactive lessons result in improved performance from learners. A course that contains timelines, narration, matching games, and selling scenarios is much more memorable than a list of bullet points. But interactive courses can be difficult to build, using a professional team like BlueVolt’s Creative Services can build courses most suited to your objectives.
What resources are available to you?
Perhaps your company already has training materials—PDFs, PPTs, or e-books—and just needs them uploaded to a central location like a BlueVolt University. But maybe you have a variety of disparate sources, like product manuals and webpages, that need to be consolidated into an easy-to-consume format. No matter what assets you have, Creative Services can work with you to organize your content so it is easy to follow and hits all the important points. Even if you do already have cohesive training materials, Creative Services can help you turn them into an interactive and engaging course.
Do you need your training to be trackable?
If you decide to use content that is not in a SCORM file, that content cannot be tracked. You can tell whether a learner opened the material, but not how much of it they have consumed or how much they have left—or if they even read it at all. All the training built by the Creative Services team is trackable, and you can even ensure that learners open each section of an activity before proceeding.
Conclusion
No matter how much or little help you need, there are a variety of advantages to working with a professional team like Creative Services—from guidance on best practices to trackable, interactive training that will engage your learners.
