Building exceptional digital learning requires exceptional project management and process governance.
That's why we assign each client a designated project manager, who acts as your single point of contact.
Our learning consultants harness the skills of a team of creative writers, subject matter experts, consultants, designers and programmers.
We work with your own reviewers, SMEs and stakeholders to provide smooth and efficient content development.
Whatever your needs, we can suggest practical solutions with clear indications of costings.
At Skillcast, we develop digital learning for some of the leading companies in the UK and EU. What excites us most is how learning can help our clients to achieve business goals, and create a culture of inclusivity, ethics and compliance.
Intelligent Learning uses four key levers to improve learner engagement and maximise behavioural impact:
All of our content and interactions are driven by an agreed set of outcomes to meet your business goals.
Some people in your business are supremely confident about everything, including things that they don't know or misunderstand. Meanwhile, others lack conviction even about things that they know very well. Knowing these behaviours can be critical for compliance and other parts of your business, but how?
This is where our gamified assessments can help. They are a fun way to boost employee engagement, improve awareness and retention, and launch compliance initiatives. However, they're also brilliant at assessing each employee's knowledge/behaviour and their conviction in that knowledge/behaviour.
The data from such games and other learning activities in a course can be used to create competency maps at the individual, team and organisation level. It can also generate recommendations for follow-on training and drive process improvements.
The cost of made-to-measure content depends upon some specific factors:
Circa £6,000
Learning need:
To convert legacy content, eg a Flash-based course or a training PowerPoint, into a responsive, accessible HTML5 digital learning module
Client input:
Training content in PowerPoint or PDF, or built using Flash, Articulate, Lectora or another legacy format
Circa £15,000
Learning need:
An engaging course to create awareness and improve staff compliance in relation to a legal/regulatory requirement or internal standard
Client input:
Course content with further inputs from internal SMEs
E-learning solution:
Our classic-build bespoke module is perfect for delivering an engaging compliance training experience for your staff. This is the same build quality that we offer in our flagship OTS courses, such as AML/CTF, Anti-Bribery and Data Protection. We will create a storyboard based on the materials that you've provided to us and any further guidance that we receive. After obtaining your review and approval, we will turn this storyboard into an interactive learning experience using our standard SHARD (SHared Accessible Responsive Design) 5 templates. Your course will be rich in scenario-based interactions that add relevancy and improve acceptance, retention and compliance. We will also include a 10-question post-course assessment (with randomised questions) to evidence the training internally and to external auditors and regulators.
Starting from £30,000
Learning need:
To deliver an enhanced learning experience to your staff to embed a change initiative or regulatory requirement, and generate a buzz in your organisation
Client input:
Policies, internal presentations, regulatory documents, risk findings and news stories, with inputs from internal and external SMEs
E-learning solution:
We will build a custom learning experience that incorporates intelligent learning elements and is built to exacting standards. Examples of this include immersive learn-by-doing scenarios, where the learner deals with complex and difficult situations aided by a virtual mentor. In building this content, we follow an enhanced review process to meet the exacting requirements laid out by your SMEs and C-level stakeholders.
Circa £24,000
Learning need:
To achieve more with your course than just a one-way knowledge transfer, eg adapt the content, gamify or produce people analytics
Client input:
Course content with further inputs from internal SMEs (same as Standard Bespoke above)
E-learning solution:
The Intelligent Learning solution builds on our classic-build bespoke module with one or more intelligent learning elements: gamification, personalisation (based on the learner's needs), adaptive content (based on the learner's competence) and data capture to produce people analytics.
We start with an understanding of your business goals and the related outcomes that you want to achieve from the training. We articulate these as action points, which in turn drive the learning activities. The intelligent learning enhancements are also determined by your desired outcomes. Some of the most popular enhancements are:
If you ask senior managers in your business what you can do to make your digital learning programme better, none of them will say "more video or fancy graphics please". Some might say "more interactivity", but most will say "just make the courses short and relevant!"
That's exactly what intelligent learning does, and it does it with personalisation and adaptive content. By asking employees just a couple of simple questions about their work and responsibilities, we can personalise a course and deliver/test only the content that's relevant to them.
We can go further by using the employee's performance in the learning activities to adapt the content: shorter for those who are competent; and longer for those who are not. We can also include a straight test-out option by adding a pre-assessment at the start. This will determine whether an employee receives the full course or a pared-down refresher version.
