We are at an exciting time in our industry. Just a few years ago, you needed to hire programmers to build your elearning courses. Today, that is not the case. Rapid elearning tools give you the power to create your own courses without the need for programming skills. This saves you time and money.

The challenge is to develop solid end-to-end skills where you know enough about instructional design and multimedia to build courses that are both inexpensive and effective.

This blog exists to help you meet that challenge. It will provide practical, real-world tips and tricks to help you get your job done.

I have been doing this rapid elearning stuff for a while now and have been at both ends of the elearning community. I have worked at places where I was a one-man shop with no money and had to virtually duct tape my projects together like MacGyver. On the other end, I have been part of large organizations that switched to rapid authoring tools to become more efficient and save money. Whatever the case, it’s important to develop the skills that help you build the best elearning courses you can.

I will be sharing my experiences and best practices. I also look forward to hearing from you and learning what you have to offer. The ultimate goal is that we help each other become better at what we do.
