How custom learning is priced
Every engagement is quoted, and the quote is set in project points you can move between tasks as the project changes.
How project points work
Project points are prepaid units of work. We estimate the points a project needs from its requirements, and during the project you can move points from one task to another without changing the budget.
If an animation turns into an interactive activity, or the slide count grows as the content firms up, the new plan comes out of the same budget, with no change orders. Points are valid for five years from purchase.
What sets the price
- How complete and organized your source content already is.
- How deeply learners need to understand it, from awareness through to job-ready competence.
- How much instructional design it takes to turn raw expertise into training.
- How far the interactivity and custom media need to go, from a clean, professional build to scenarios, simulations, video and animation.
Before you ask for a quote
A quote is more accurate when we know a few things up front. Have what you can of these ready, and we work out the rest with you.
- What the training needs to change, and who the learners are.
- What content you have now, and how finished it is.
- Who your subject matter experts are, and how much of their time is available.
- Which LMS you use, and the format it needs.
- Any accessibility or language requirements.
- The date you need it by.
Included in every project
- Multiple review rounds and a collaborative process.
- The source files.
- A 30-day warranty on minor bugs, with a yearly re-test and re-publish.
- An optional extended warranty keeps a course and its source files maintained year to year.

About Custom eLearning Express -
A word on cost
We are not the cheapest option and we say so. What clients get for the difference is one in-house team that plans the program, builds it, and stands behind it after launch.
FAQ
We have a small budget. Is it worth talking?
Probably, and we will tell you if not. One finished course is a real project, and a small first build is how most of our long relationships started.
Is there a fixed-price option?
Yes, for a single course of up to an hour. Our Custom eLearning Express service builds it at a fixed price in ten business days.
Are revisions extra?
Two rounds are in the price: one major and one minor at storyboard, then again at build.
How long are project points valid?
Five years from purchase.
Do you respond to RFPs?
Yes. Send us your request for proposals and we'll respond with a quote.
