With that in mind, I thought I’d share one of my top tips for designing effective interactions that help to enhance the e-learning experience.

Group job roles into risk categories or use a pre-test to identify gaps in knowledge, then point each user to what they specifically need to know (information overload = disengaged learners). You can see the slides from my session on user-focused design for gold-standard compliance training in my last blog post or on SlideShare.)
