Custom Course Production
Micro-Training Needs
How It Works
Discover
We begin the instructional design process with a conversation to better understand the goals for your project. What are your training objectives? What assets would you like to have developed: training videos, PDF documents, courses? We will also discuss training requirements, such as talent, location and final delivery.
Design
Next, our team coaches you in developing your curriculum and course outline. Then we put together a timeline and proposal which covers revisions, pricing, and deliverables. We will also request any branding collateral to ensure accuracy in the final product.
Produce
Then, our video production team films, edits, and brands your custom videos and supporting marketing collateral according to Pineapple Academy standards, while our instructional design team creates your custom training courses and prepares them for delivery via SCORM 1.2 files.
Experience Makes the Difference
Our unique advantage in developing training is our experience in making it both relevant and easy to understand for the deskless employees. A few key differentiators in our process are:
- 5-Minute or less training design
- Fundamentals first approach
- Taught by subject matter experts
- Filming is done live on location
