Build e-learning courses around your own policies and procedures
Edit any Ideagen Workplace Training course or create your own, so training reflects your policies, procedures and local legislation. With an existing script, a course can be built and published in about a day.
Why ready-made courses alone cannot reflect how your organization works
No course library can cover your sites, your procedures or the legislation you work under. When training does not reflect them, employees are less likely to apply it, and the gaps show up in audits. The usual alternatives are commissioning bespoke e-learning, which can take months and a significant budget, or using a specialist authoring tool built for e-learning designers. Ideagen Workplace Training Course Builder gives your own team a faster way to create and edit courses.
Two ways to customize e-learning courses with Ideagen Workplace Training Course Builder
Make any Ideagen Workplace Training course your own
Start with a course your employees already need and shape it around your organization. If you operate outside the UK, update the legislation in a course to your own, so employees learn the rules that apply to them without you building a course from scratch.
Create your own e-learning and microlearning courses
Build full e-learning courses or short microlearning courses around your own procedures, site rules and know-how. Use them to roll out a new process, refresh a key message or train people on equipment no ready-made course covers. You can also build on Ideagen Workplace Training content to save time.
Present your procedures and rules in ways employees understand and remember
Each course is built from ready-made screen types, so you can present your procedures, rules and know-how in the format that suits them best. Walk employees through a procedure with text and images, show your own people doing the job on video, let them explore your site with clickable images, break policies into key points with text reveals and check they know your rules with question screens. The layouts are ready-made, so your team’s time goes into the content rather than the design.
Build and publish a course in about a day
With a script, images and videos already prepared, a course takes about a day to build, depending on its length. That means training can be updated within days when a procedure changes, legislation is updated or an incident highlights a gap.
Writing the script and creating assets takes longer and depends on your team, but starting from an Ideagen Workplace Training course saves time on both.

Frequently asked questions
Course Builder is the e-learning course builder within Ideagen Workplace Training. It lets your team edit ready-made courses or create your own full e-learning and microlearning courses, so every employee gets training that reflects how your organization really works, without commissioning a specialist developer.
Yes, any of them. Tailor a course to your organization, or update it in line with your local legislation if you operate outside the UK. You keep the quality and structure of a ready-made course and add the detail only you know, which is far quicker than starting from a blank page.
Full e-learning courses and shorter microlearning courses, built from five ready-made screen types: standard presentation, video, clickable images, text reveal (information review) and question screens. That range lets you present your own procedures, rules and know-how in the way that suits each one best, then check employees have understood them.
About a day, if you already have a script and assets such as images and videos, depending on the length of the course. Writing the script and creating assets depends on your team. Either way, you can get training on a new procedure or regulation in front of employees in days, rather than waiting months for bespoke e-learning.
Not directly, as Ideagen Workplace Training Course Builder does not embed Word documents or PDFs. Instead, turn the key points of a policy into interactive screens, such as text reveals and question screens. This works better for employees than reading a document on screen, and lets you check they have understood it.
