We are developing an in-house training curriculum for our group of Instructional Designers. We would like to leverage Articulate E-Learning Heroes as a repository for self help and sustainable knowledge in the long-term. My Question is, aside from Articulate Live, what options do we have at leveraging your direct expertise? (i.e. Guest Speaker/SME during training (in-house/virtual)).
I would love to get into contact with someone if there are options such as this available.
Hi Joel. I'm sure you'll find that E-Learning Heroes is a great resource for your instructional designers. Not only is there a lot of self-help information (articles, tutorials, and free e-books), but discussion forums, like this one, provide a great way for your folks to connect with other designer/developers to get design guidance, support and peer feedback on their work. The E-Learning Examples and Downloads hubs are great for getting creative inspiration, and free design assets, like templates, characters, icons, etc. In other words, echoing your thoughts, it's a great way to acquire and grow their expertise.
You mentioned Articulate Live, but here are some other resources to consider:
If you're looking for some self-paced tutorials to help get folks up to speed on Articulate 360, we've got a series of short & helpful Getting Started tutorials here.
If you're looking for something more hands-on & guided, you might want to consider reaching out to our training partner, Yukon Learning. They're marvelous!
Another idea for more hands-on guidance would be to send your folks to one of our roadshows. You can track events where Articulate staff are scheduled to appear here.
Finally, if you think you'd benefit most from having an Articulate expert at the ready, you might consider posting a temporary or contract position for an Articulate consultant in our jobs hub. It's free and easy to post your position there and many of our freelance E-Learning Heroes keep tabs on opportunities posted there. I suggest this approach as many orgs like having someone on retainer they can tap to do periodic training or to jump in and help with e-learning projects when the workload gets too heavy.
Hope these ideas get you pointed in the right direction.
