E-learning strategy: repurposing content

Abstract

As a CLO, you have probably incorporated e-learning into your department’s delivery of training or identified it as an approach to help achieve your objectives. In either case, repurposing content is inevitable if you plan to develop custom e-learning content. Defining your strategy to repurpose content is critical to the successful deployment of your e-learning initiatives. To define your strategy and processes, you need to understand the potential benefits and issues offered by repurposing content. Develop a strategy that will help you manage the issues wisely, and you’ll reap the benefits by improving the speed and quality of your team’s content development. Fail to develop a strategy, and you’ll manage them poorly, squander valuable production time and undermine the effectiveness of your e-learning.
