Questions about the portfolio
Are these real client courses?
No. They are showcase courses we built to show how we design for different sectors. The people, organisations and figures in them are invented. Client work stays confidential unless a client agrees otherwise.
Can I try the activities?
Yes. Every activity on each page works in your browser. Nothing you type or choose is sent to us or saved.
Can you build a course like this with our content?
Yes. That's what we do. We start from your material, your policies and your examples, and agree the interaction level module by module before we build anything.
Will it work on our learning platform?
We hand courses over as SCORM or xAPI packages, which nearly every learning platform accepts. If you don't have a platform, we can host the course on ours.
How much does a course like this cost?
It depends on the interaction level and the length. Prices start low for a converted course and rise with the level of interaction. See the packages page for current prices, or ask for the free course diagnostic.
Can these courses be certified?
They are built to CPD standard, so they can go forward for CPD Certification. Longer programmes can be developed for qualifications accreditation. We are not a regulator or an awarding organisation and don't award qualifications ourselves.
