Learning Strategy solution

Managed services for L&D projects

Most in-house designed corporate training programs can be plotted as a bell curve. They often start slowly and cautiously, peak in interest after the initial deployment, and then slowly trend downward as learners lose interest or the program becomes too much to manage. As a managed service provider for eLearning, ELM eliminates the ebbs and flows of engagement, keeping interest high and leveraging data to make better decisions every step of the way.

Why managed services for eLearning?

Managed services go beyond designing your eLearning program. While the design constitutes a large portion of managed services, they’re better described as continuous support for your training initiatives. We understand that most organizations aren’t equipped to develop, design, manage, and track training on a holistic level, so we offer managed services to achieve better results from start to finish. Managed services help you better utilize your available resources for a more efficient approach.

eLearning project management, from start to finish

Every organization’s training strategy is different, so it makes sense that managed services are not a one-size-fits-all solution. Rather, our project managers are experts at designing programs, troubleshooting past issues, and driving efficient eLearning experiences. Our managed services offer as much or as little support you need to design, deploy, and scale your training.

Managed services to keep your project on track

Whether or not you have a dedicated learning & development (L&D) team, your training requires support beyond simple deployment. Effective training requires extensive maintenance, administration, and user experience design that you might not have the resources to execute yourself. Our managed services for L&D maximizes your time and budget, allocating resources to where you need them most. Instead of getting bogged down in the details, we let you lead with your strengths and help you manage the rest. ELM’s project managers can help you create a realistic timeline, stay on budget, and track your ROI so you’re able to make better decisions along the way.
Learning experience design, or LXD, means looking at your training goals from a learner’s POV. It encompasses everything from how learning is delivered to user accessibility and training mechanics to keep learners motivated and engaged. When LXD is utilized effectively, it ramps up ROI and offers a better overall experience.

Let’s face it: All learning is not created equally. Poor design, boring click-through interaction, or difficult-to-access content creates unnecessary roadblocks to learner success. Through our managed services, we can remove anything that stands between your learner and your organization’s training goals. LXD can be applied to every step of the development process, from the very first rough outline, to ongoing support for learners, to completion and beyond. eLearning is made up of many moving parts, and our team understands how to design so every component contributes to your objectives.
We consider the project from every angle. As a managed service provider for eLearning, it’s our job to make sure every learner has a positive, seamless experience no matter their role, background, or level of ability. We rigorously test, retest, and improve each program until it’s perfectly compatible with assistive tech and different platforms. Not only does this make for a better, learner-focused experience, but it gives your organization more opportunity to scale your eLearning to reach more users.
