Technical Policy Orientation
May 04, 2015
I have been tasked with creating a Change Management Orientation for technical new hires. The purpose of this session is orient them to the policies and procedures of technical changes to assets. Has anyone else done something similar? I'm struggling to make this interesting. I have used characters with the roll over feature to highlight individual roles and the tab feature to explain the various functions of the Advisory Board. But there is so much verbiage!!!
I'm using Storyline 2, so have lots of possibilities available to me. Any thoughts on jazzing up technical policies and procedures would be appreciated!

Can you include any scenarios or task based activities?
Ask yourself, "what would happen if they didn't know this information," then come up with scenarios surrounding your answers. E.g. "Bob did this instead of this, and this happened, what do you advise him to do now?"
Tom has a good recent article on how to "talk" in e-learning courses: https://community.articulate.com/articles/personalization-principle-speaking-to-your-learners-instead-of-at-them

Rachel - Thank you, this has given me some food for thought. The links are extremely helpful.
Agree 100% with Rachel. Just because it is deadly serious does not mean it has to be deadly dull. Use parody, use sarcasm, use HUMOUR, it's not banned you know!
Also - WHY SHOULD THEY CARE? Unless you crack that one, and build it into the course, you will lose them.
Thanks Bruce - The WHY Should They Care is key!!!
