I am looking for some creative ideas for a eLearning that is about a new policy and procedure. This would not be about anything technical (hands-on, etc.). More about the typical corporate must acknowledgement stuff. Anyone created something that is fun and engaging? Thanks!
Hi David, yes it is for the company that I work with and it will be about a specific policy. I am just looking for some ideas of things that people have done when faced with no graphic wordy policy document.
We used to create min scenarios around the reason for the policy as a way to make the policies more meaningful. They weren't big elaborate scenarios. More like: Sally fell on the sidewalk outside and is limping around the office today. What should you do?
Then used that as a lead in to the policy.
A while back someone asked about bed bug training for a mattress company. Not training the bed bugs. :) One idea was to structure the training as if you were a real estate agent for bed bugs.
Flipping the perspective is a good way to reframe the content and make it more engaging.
At a workshop we use a prevent shoplifting PDF to talk about interactive elearning. Most of the demos center on the employee or company. Some times people will play the role of shoplifter instead.
This is a challenge, as most policies or procedures usually involve quite a bit of language that is associated with it. Breaking this down into digestible format is vital; I am interested to see other answers as I run into the same problem often.

Are you creating this for a specific industry or on a particular topic? Might help people come up with themed ideas if so.
