Learning Strategy overview

Create more impactful training with ELM

Whether it’s finding the right off-the-shelf program, starting a custom program from scratch, or some combination of the two, we create learning experiences that are tailor made for your organization. You only have a few seconds to cut through distractions and grab your learner’s attention. The right combination of Neurolearning™ and UX makes all the difference in developing a training strategy that maximizes your learners’ time and keeps your organization’s objectives front and center.

Our approach

At ELM, we combine what we know about focus, attention, and memory with customized learning solutions that reflect your company’s structure, culture, and unique goals. We create learning that is highly accessible and perfectly balanced to deliver the right combination of content, context, and impact for highly dynamic training, from the very first moment to the final wrap-up. Your organization has specific needs, and your employees deserve relevant, engaging eLearning. ELM creates custom solutions using a neurolearning approach grounded in cognitive psychology and neuroscience, and complemented with out-of-this-world instructional design. This approach results in instructionally sound digital learning experiences with proven higher engagement, deeper learning, and faster recall.

Custom Mobile App Development

Would your organization benefit from a custom app? In the past, that might have meant a big budget and months of outsourcing development and coding, but as a full-service eLearning company, ELM can help you develop custom mobile apps as part of your training strategy. Let us brainstorm, build, code, and launch tools your learners will use in their roles every day.
