Say, if youre purchasing a course library from SkillSoft or some other vendor: If a client has their own LMS, do they purchase the courses outright and host them on their own servers? If so, is the vendor able to track usage or do they just sell the content for a flat fee based on LMS seat size? United States License.

Im just about to kickoff a new project with a manufacturing organization to produce some custom courses. Im gonna call them an "immature e-Learning organization." Vendors -- of which I am one -- are often in the position of just answering the mail. These are the challenges of being the external vendor. Games are scary.

Monday, March 12, 2007 Free the Learners -- Free the LMS Jay Cross in Free the learners talks about his afternoon omelette and anarchy and then goes on: People ask how to track informal learning in their LMS; my response is don’t. Im wondering if people actually use all that data that does get tracked now for formal learning.

eLearning vendors (those that design custom courseware) are often handed the course to be built. So the vendor scopes it out and does the design work, the storyboarding, the development work. But the bottom line is, the vendor needs to butter their bread and produce what the client has asked for. United States License.

I am still surprised on how vendors who are offering assessment only tools are staying in the game. Some vendors push heavily on PPT, implying that a great WBT is really a PPT converted to Flash. One vendor focuses only on Blackberry (not just Playbook but their smartphone like product). Vendor adoption is slow.

Im going to quote heavily from the article here, inserting my own thoughts along the way. Why should companies go with e-Learning vendors when rapid e-Learning tools are available? Have the e-Learning vendor create the first few custom programs. Granted, Im not commenting on the design nor the quality of the material.

Harold Jarche says, The future of learning is DIY : This is the power of informal learning, if organisations decide to enable it. Brent Schenkler has been on a soapbox recently, talking about the death of ISD in the wake of informal learning. In small companies, DIY/informal learning is pretty much all you got. And its free.

Theres nothing in ADDIE about learning objects or the presentation of information. An instructional design model is one that informs the design of the learning experience itself.

As an e-Learning vendor, I think its our responsibility to make sure that our clients have thought this through. Im sure it matters to them. Of course these vendors will want to provide updated content in order to ensure their clients dont have out of date material. United States License. This is a good point.

The tools are democratizing the learning process (in the same way blogs did for information) and giving the capability to the front line people and removing the friction that the formal learning departments create.
