In-House vs. Professional Development
When To Consider In-House Course Development
- You have on staff (or can afford) your own professional course developer
- You have (or can afford) professional course authoring software like Articulate Storyline or Captivate
- You are only creating simple course layouts and have other staff available to do it
- You have (or will get) an LMS with easy-to-use course authoring built-in
- You will not need courses exported to SCORM and used in any other LMS
When to Consider Professional Course Development
-
- You don't have or can't afford to hire your own professional course developer
- You need help planning and implementing some or all phases of your training project(s)
- You don't have professional course authoring software like Articulate Storyline or Captivate
- You need more dynamic, sophisticated course layouts and have no staff with that expertise
- You need to develop courses that can be exported to SCORM and used in any LMS
- Can't afford to assign course authoring to staff with other important duties
The best solution is a combination of both.
We can help you get your project off and running, then help train you to make revisions and use the course layouts that were developed to create and update your courses. We look forward to hearing from you!
