Energize your eLearning content with us

Neovation’s Custom Learning team understands that technical accuracy is a top priority for energy companies, so we always take a hands-on approach when supporting energy clients.

Through a combination of interviews with in-house experts, discovery meetings, and analysis of existing documentation and knowledge, our team ensures that we can speak confidently and clearly about the technical knowledge required for a project. Where appropriate and approved, our team leverages AI tools like NotebookLM and Gemini to create project efficiencies and enhance your project.

If your project’s scope changes during development or if you decide to pivot its focus, the Custom Learning team will support whatever changes you feel are needed. We use a flexible, points-based pricing system that allows clients to shift priorities as their projects evolve.

For example, if clients plan for a video-based slide in their training but the content is better suited for an infographic, they can augment other parts of their training using the points they saved from video production.

Our top priority is to deliver your training courses on a timeline that works for your company. We’ll work with you to determine a timeline based on the following factors:

• The readiness of your source material and knowledge
• The complexity and design level of your desired eLearning course
• The scope of your project

The Custom Learning team will prioritize your timeline using a waterfall development approach so we can simultaneously complete multiple pieces of content for different stages of your project.

You, the client, own all courses created by our eLearning development and instructional design team. 

During your project, we will keep the training materials you supply in a secure, cloud-hosted directory that is only accessible to our team. Our team is internally governed by policies for safe file storage, sharing, backups, and deletion of client-supplied materials, and for greater peace of mind, we can sign an NDA.

Finally, with your permission to use AI for your project, we follow a specific AI policy to ensure your sensitive information isn’t used for learning purposes.

The cost of eLearning development depends largely on the project scope and what features are included in the final product. Features like the level of interactivity, content readiness, custom graphics, etc., all contribute to the overall project cost.

For example, developing a 15-minute eLearning course can cost between $3,000 and $25,000. 

• On the low end of the scale is a non-narrated Articulate Rise course where the eLearning content is nearly ready to be migrated into a course.
• On the other end of the spectrum, imagination is the limit with a highly interactive, possibly gamified course that includes narration, accessibility, and instructional design support. 

The cost of your eLearning course reflects several factors, such as content readiness, interactivity level, add-ons like narration or virtual avatars, and other features of your final product.

There are many factors to consider when determining the ROI of eLearning development, but some of the most important are:

• An eLearning course is far more accessible and repurposeable than other forms of training, such as instructor-led training (ILT), which will improve your training’s impact and save you money on ILT-related costs.
• We help you meet internal KPI metrics, which can include reducing incidents, protection from lawsuits, reducing project overruns, adhering to policy and timelines, and reducing downtime from broken equipment.
• Offering training to your employees of any tenure, from new hires to senior staff, shows that you care and can make a difference in attracting talent and reducing turnover.
• Increasing revenue or sales with eLearning can be twofold: your team becomes more knowledgeable of your product offering and adept at navigating challenges that prevent sales, or improvements to your customer-education program lead to less support and happier, long-term clients.
• With our team handling the heavy lifting of your eLearning program, your in-house team is free to focus more on other high-priority items that make sense to keep internal.

You can include additional factors in your ROI calculations, such as the potential business cost of not providing the training and how that would impact your company. 

Beyond direct business priorities, training is a crucial factor for positive employee engagement, which directly impacts your business’ retention rates—it is exponentially more expensive to hire a new employee than to retain a current employee, and robust training is fundamental in keeping turnover rates low.

Neovation’s Custom Learning team can create interactive eLearning content that augments your training to be more effective, engaging, and memorable. Our team will recommend interactive content that best suits your learning objectives and learner needs. 

Beyond choosing the type of interactivity, you can select the level of customization each interactivity will have, depending on the content you’ve planned for your course.  To see an example of some of the interactive content we can create for your training, check out our eLearning interactivity glossary.
