What Experience Has Taught Us
- We know how to work with technical content. We are committed to taking full advantage of time with subject-matter experts. We have processes to ensure we gather the content we need at the right level of detail for the learner audience.
- We bring complex concepts to life. Our creative team uses AR/VR, animation, 3D illustration, and the full spectrum of media to render difficult subject matter in formats that enable learning. We can simulate software, provide skills practice, and measure performance.
- We tailor our process to suit the unique needs of tech companies. Often, technical training is being concurrently developed with new tools or processes in the organization. We have the experience to anticipate when to work ahead and when to hold off to avoid unnecessary rework.
