An e-learning course created and deployed in 2 minutes 52 seconds [video]

This video is a bit of a departure: Given all the talk about rapid e-learning development and as promised in our previous post, we thought it might be fun to do a speed test of some of Notion Learning’s functionality. The result? The creation and deployment of a powerpoint based e-learning course in 2 minutes 52 seconds. It’s quite quick, so don’t worry if things are happening a bit too fast!

The move to in-house course creation is on

Some interesting outcomes reported by Omniplex after a survey conducted at the Learning Techonlogies 2010 conference earlier this year include the following:

“One priority was people looking to migrate from an existing learning management system (LMS) to a system that is easier to use,” revealed Matthew Lloyd, managing director of Omniplex.
“This reflects the trend towards organisations taking control of their LMS in-house – along with the trend to develop their own e-learning materials in-house, which has boosted demand for such things as rapid authoring tools which can be used by in-house subject matter experts rather than by professional e-learning designers and developers.

This is exactly our focus. We empower companies to build the content themselves – and it’s all included in our monthly rate. You get the LMS and all the tools you need to create content right in the web browser. And being easy to use is one of our main mantras.
