Our designers understand our course format, our learners, and our goals, and can help you bring your knowledge to life. You’re not starting from a blank page. Our learning experience designer will come in with a draft outline covering key topics, technologies, and learning objectives. Together you’ll revise and refine this to reflect your insights and experience. Our video and slide production team will make you look amazing. When you record, your videos will probably have pauses while you look at your notes and bobbles where you say “cut that, let me try again.” That’s what post-production is for! In addition, we have a talented team of slide designers who step in to illustrate key concepts as you talk about them–you don’t produce those slides, we do. Your Compensation $5,000 per course module
