Course Design with Next Generation Content

Learning Design

When it comes to teaching, it’s not just the story you tell, but how you tell it. Our team of instructional designers will help structure your courses with proven, science-based techniques to maximize learning.
You’ll find noticeable, consistent improvements in learner progress as a result of this approach.

NextThought begins every learning design project with a collaborative workshop with all participants to create a blueprint for your project using Learning Environmental Modeling (LEM), a shared visual mapping tool.

FAQs

Below you'll find answers to the questions we get asked the most.

Can you help me with my learning and development plan?

Absolutely! With our team of learning designers, and content development specialists, we can help you create and design your learning plan from soup to nuts. Starting on the front end, with a learning design session, where we dive into the vision for your program while thinking through how to best layout your content, all the way to producing your videos or SCORM packages on your behalf. Our team can be as involved or as uninvolved as you want us to be!

Can you help onboard my content?

How can remote employees learn better?

With a strong online learning environment, regardless of the employees’ geographical location, they can still get the training needed to make them a better employee and more effective in their specific role. In-person training used to be vital to get an employee appropriately up to speed for their role, but now with immersive online learning environments, any skill, information, or policy can be facilitated and taught remotely.

Does your learning platform support the hybrid workplace?

Yes, our course authoring tool allows you to build fully self-directed content as well as instructor-led offerings. Depending on how you structure the course, you can use the NextThought LMS to facilitate a hybrid workplace allowing learners to consume material both in person and online as well as asynchronously and synchronously.

Why is employee learning important?

Employees need to learn in order to improve and add skills or understanding to topics necessary for the lifelong learner. Continuing to hone their craft while expanding outside of their field of expertise will round employees out and make them more versatile, and thus a more valuable asset to their organization.
