Thanks to the good ol' educational discount I can really make the most out of a $1000 budget. Finally got the buy in from the boss to spend some money on Adobe software, mainly for developing eLearning and printed training materials. Obviously, I need the Creative Suite 3 but that's where things get sticky.

Unfortunately Captivate 4 is not out yet and it's going to be a while before I have the budget to upgrade. I have heard that Captivate 4 is the answer for the right click in a post on Wendy Wickhams blog.

Budget Friendly - I don't have much room in the budget so it needs to be something that's not going to leave too much of a dent in it. SCORM works well on Moodle - I've had my challenges using SCORM with Captivate and Moodle due to bandwidth issues. Hoping a different tool might be able to handle this better.

Now that I am on a shoestring budget I have been making more of an effort to find low cost solutions to implementing eLearning. If I can point to a dollar amount that I saved by converting this material to eLearning I am more likely to turn some heads and get more leeway in the budget. So that's the plan!

Until recently I was working with a decent budget and the broad guidelines of getting us started on e-learning. As sales go down, so does the training dept's budget which is bad news for my e-learning project. As sales go down, so does the training dept's budget which is bad news for my e-learning project.

Budget/schedule criteria. We met all the stated criteria, and were within the budget of $X that they had set for the project. This organization re-issued the RFP with a budget of $X + 160% (not kidding). Details regarding the training program content required. Anticipated project team organization and implementation schedule.

The company I work for has a tight grip on the training budget this year and if I want to make eLearning a priority in future budgets I need to make the ROI on eLearning obvious. As you may have seen in the previous post, I am attempting to do this by replacing some content that is currently delivered through instructor led training.
