Consulting Services

Through our consulting services, we aim to advise our clients on how to best create/improve their actual e-learning practices. Based on our consultants’ audit, a report is prepared which provides a firm basis for preliminary decision making.  Our methodology covers the following:

• Ensuring objective analysis and evaluation of knowledge management and e-learning practices, as well as identifying improvement needs;
• Registering corporate e-learning needs (key success criteria);
• Calculating preliminary added value and cost saving tendencies in terms of busines effectiveness in a quantifiable format;
• Formulating suggestions for optimization of learning content, of IT background and of managerial environment.

On the basis of our experience, the success of e-learning systems is not only determined by cost-effective IT infrastructure, but also by the extent to which  the electronic learning techniques are embedded within the given company culture. In an optimal case, well-designed e-learning offers much more than a course editor or complex media servers.

Therefore, the e-learning audit also focuses on corporate HR management strategies and the extent to which the proposed or even the actual e-learning systems support them or the corporate knowledge sharing. Our consulting experts are looking for exact and quantifiable answers for the following questions:

• How does the actual e-learning practice endorse the company’s business effectiveness?
• What is the IT basis of the present e-learning system in terms of cost-effectiveness?
• What is the potential usage of educational and HR controlling information provided by the LMS (Learning Management System)?
• What is the role of the actual e-learning system in the training and/or career planning strategies? Who are the actual users of e-learning – and how do they like it? If there are people not using it, what are the reasons? What are the means of motivating people to use e-learning systems on a corporate level?
• Which organizational factors impede or support the routine application of e-learning?
• Which are those fields in which e-learning provides significant added value? What are those which are not worth being transformed into e-learning?
• What contents are actually accessible and how successful is the content development practice within the system (with respect to modularity, recyclability and up-to-date information)?
• What are the demands of current and potential e-learning users within the corporation?
• The focus of the e-learning audit is determined during the preliminary session held together with the client’s management board, so that further scope could be added to the analysis in order to narrow it to certain sub-fields, in accordance with corporate strategy.
