Many times the compliance courses share information that is already available in other formats in the organization. If that’s the case, do you need a full multimedia product to share that information? For example, the course navigation is locked or there’s way too much information. That’s up to 300 minutes of information.

What I’d do is treat each screen the same as a slide and then use clickable icons to reveal the course’s information. Each icon would have a label and when clicked would display additional information. The trick here is to pick icons that visually represent the essential idea of the information.

Often there’s little concern about how relevant the information is to the learner. Thus the learner is usually not engaged and has to wade through a lot of information. This is something an information dump can’t easily do. In the example below, we created some information about student/teacher ratios.

Real learning isn’t a one-time event (like many elearning courses) where it’s just a matter of getting new information. I know that many customers want to lock navigation so that they “get all of the information.” Give them ways to collect information. Learning is a funny thing. This is faulty thinking. Focus on relevance.
