You do checks to see if the course is solid when it comes to instructional methodology. You also do a final check on the module\u2019s overall look and feel. You\u2019re very confident that the learners will find the eLearning course engaging and pleasant.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Everything seems good to go. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, come deployment time, issues keep popping up<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Then it hit you! Just when you\u2019ve thought that everything was in tip-top shape, you find out that <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the module you\u2019ve just uploaded<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is not working. You quickly retrace everything you\u2019ve done up to the point before <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">launching your eLearning corporate training course<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to find out what went wrong, where, and when.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Online learning courses that seem to malfunction or \u2018suddenly\u2019 contain mistakes at the last minute is a very common \u2018phenomenon.\u2019 And <strong>part of your job as an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/blog\/tips-optimize-instructional-design-process-elearning\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">instructional designer<\/a> is to make sure that everything is ready<\/strong> before <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">launching an eLearning training course<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>5 Things to Consider Before Launching Your Online Training Program<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the field of eLearning, you have to be keen-eyed and detailed \u2013 especially before <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">launching your corporate training course<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. We want to help you avoid such an episode; and so, we\u2019d like to share with you five questions you need to ask yourself before launching your online training course.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>1. Are the learning objectives based on key business metrics?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>The creator\u2019s main responsibility is to ensure that all learning objectives are met at the end of the course.<\/strong> And to do this, you would need to check if the learning objectives aim to impact business metrics before you <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">launch your eLearning corporate training course<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At the end of the day, all training courses will be all about producing results. And a course\u2019s success will solely be based on whether or not it was able to make a positive impact on the business.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong> This is why key business metrics are the basis for learning objectives.<\/strong> In turn, learning objectives are based on the learning needs of the employees. These learning needs are then based on trends in performance, employee\/management feedback, and observed\/perceived behavior.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As an instructional designer,<strong> it is your job to ensure the integrity of the process training and development process<\/strong> &#8211; getting data, analyzing it, formulating <a href=\"https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/blog\/tips-set-realistic-training-objectives\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>learning objectives<\/strong><\/a>, creating and evaluating courses. Therefore, sound learning objectives are a product of maintaining this process. So, if there\u2019s something amiss when setting learning objectives for a course, you might want to also take a close look at your company\u2019s entire training process as well.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>2. Is the course tailor-fit for the intended learners?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Two of the biggest considerations in instructional design is the content of the course and the learners\u2019 context. These two have to coincide. For example, your course might contain the most beautiful and professionally-created content in the world, but all that would mean nothing if the course fails to address the learner\u2019s context.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not addressing the context <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">will result in the <strong>learners not being able to apply the skills learned to their everyday tasks.<\/strong> Therefore, you always need to consider your learners\u2019 context when you design <a href=\"https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/blog\/training-content-curation-elearning-101\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>content for a course<\/strong><\/a> (and vice versa). In doing so, you always need to make sure that everything is tailor-fit to your learners\u2019 needs before <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">launching your eLearning course<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remember that while you all may work for the same company, each department works differently from each other. Each work team also has different key metrics, different issues at work, and sometimes also have their own subculture.<strong> The best way to address this is to work with a subject matter expert.<\/strong> This person knows the ins and outs of the team\u2019s operations and is a firsthand source of the most common issues that employees face at work.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">More importantly, another way to tailor-fit courses is to know your audience well. Do your research. Talk personally to the employees, ask them questions, or observe how they are at work<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. You\u2019ll be surprised at how much insight spending a few minutes with your learners can give you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9409\" src=\"https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/TLMS_20171129_1200x314.jpg\" alt=\"5 Things to Consider Before Launching Your Online Training Program - TalentLMS Blog\" width=\"1200\" height=\"314\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>3. Are the assessments scenario-based?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>We got so used to taking academic and standardized tests at school that we also apply the same concepts to online training courses.<\/strong> While these types of assessments may be effective for student knowledge checks; do remember that in corporate training, the goal is to develop skills to be applied in the workplace. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The concept of scenario-based assessments is somewhat related to addressing the learners\u2019 context. Aside from the course\u2019s content needing to coincide with context, assessments have to reflect real-life scenarios too. What use is asking a certain question if it and its answer does not reflect whatever\u2019s happening in real life?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instead of the usual \u2018academic\u2019 questions, assessment items can be phrased in the context of work scenarios \u2013 and this goes even for the more trivial questions. Moreover, if you\u2019re using multiple-choice items, also ensure that the all the choices are actually feasible and viable options.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>4. Are the means of delivery adapted to the current business needs\/context?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Another point to add is to make sure that the course\u2019s means of delivery can adapt to the current business needs.<\/strong> For example, if work is mostly done using a computer at the office, then a regular eLearning course. However, the business needs suddenly change if you have a workforce that\u2019s mostly working in the field. For these instances, for example, it would be best to use mobile learning or just-in-time training.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another big no-no is not <strong>checking if the course works on the learners\u2019 most commonly used devices.<\/strong> It doesn\u2019t necessarily follow that if a course works on one device, it will also work well on others. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are also times that even the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/platform\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>learning management system<\/strong><\/a> itself will also stop working because of some incompatibilities. Conflicts like these are usually the results of constant updates on the numerous operating systems, apps (like browsers), and platforms by the developers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You know what\u2019s really embarrassing? You <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">launching your eLearning corporate course<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, yet somehow forgot to double check if the software update last night is compatible with the course (or system). Deployment day finally comes \u2013 and that\u2019s the only time you find out. The best way to avoid this is to <strong>check if the module works with different devices<\/strong> \u2013 most especially the ones used by most learners.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>5. Is there consistency in grammar, spelling, and punctuation?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We won\u2019t dwell too much on this. However, this can be the most embarrassing miss to happen when you <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">launch a corporate training course.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Not only will these types of mistakes make you seem unprofessional, but will also give an impression that you are \u2018unlearned\u2019 or \u2018unrefined\u2019 in the language.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although inadvertent, misses on these elements can lose the confidence of both your boss\/client and your learners. <strong>The best way to avoid these errors is to proofread, proofread again, and then proofread some more.<\/strong> After that, have someone else proofread it for you. \u00a0You can never do too much proofreading for an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/blog\/tips-online-course-development-process-optimization\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>online course<\/strong><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Conclusion: \u00a0No Excuses!<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Launching your eLearning corporate training course<\/strong><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong> doesn\u2019t have to be a stressful experience.<\/strong> Actually, it should be a very pleasurable one \u2013 with you knowing that most of the hard work is already <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">done<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. What you just need to do is have the diligence to double check the items discussed on this list. It only just takes a little time and effort anyway; so there\u2019s absolutely no possible excuse to miss this final check.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class='tm-tweet-clear'><\/div>\n<div class='tm-click-to-tweet'>\n<div class='tm-ctt-text'><a href='https:\/\/twitter.com\/share?text=Launching+your+eLearning+corporate+training+course+doesn%E2%80%99t+have+to+be+a+stressful+experience.&#038;via=talentlms&#038;related=talentlms&#038;url=https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/blog\/things-consider-before-launching-online-training-program\/' target='_blank'>Launching your eLearning corporate training course doesn\u2019t have to be a stressful experience.<\/a><\/div>\n<p><a href='https:\/\/twitter.com\/share?text=Launching+your+eLearning+corporate+training+course+doesn%E2%80%99t+have+to+be+a+stressful+experience.&#038;via=talentlms&#038;related=talentlms&#038;url=https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/blog\/things-consider-before-launching-online-training-program\/' target='_blank' class='tm-ctt-btn'>Click To Tweet<\/a><\/p>\n<div class='tm-ctt-tip'><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, when you do find some oversight on one or some of the elements tackled, get yourself ready. You might need to do some revisions or, in some extreme cases, redo the entire module. While this might be an unfortunate situation, at least you can save yourself from the potential embarrassment and just charge everything to experience. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You think you\u2019re finally ready to launch your corporate training course.
