Build Your Content Library with Off-the-Shelf Courses

To keep staff engaged and interacting with your online learning academy requires content. Without enough relevant course content, learners lose interest and participation levels diminish. A lack of content is one of the main reasons online training programmes fail to succeed in the long term.

Creating quality bespoke content can be expensive and time consuming, however, the option of purchasing off-the-shelf courses provides an easy workaround.

Generic courses allow you to create online learning pathways custom-tailored to specific job roles, skills gaps, and career paths. Ready-made courses also reduce your training team’s workload so they can focus on their main objective of steering your training initiatives and making sure of their effectiveness.

All our courses consist of broadcast-quality video modules with assessments, are SCORM-compliant and can be used with any LMS platform or viewed directly on learners’ PCs or mobile devices.
