Products and Services - Content Development











An organization that has training and development in its DNA, constantly requires training content to be developed for numerous reasons. Content development requires a disciplined approach combining domain knowledge with a proven development methodology. OnTrac works with clients to understand their requirements and use the industry standard ADDIE framework for development of content. OnTrac’s team consists of experienced instructional designers and project managers who use proven best practices.

Depending upon the requirements, OnTrac’s provides the client with a range of final deliverables, which include:

a. Powerpoint presentations: Power point presentations are commonly used by trainers to conduct classes. OnTrac creates these presentations as part of the content development effort. The final files typically use the client’s logos, standards and look & feel.

b. Instructors’ guides: These are guides provided to the client’s trainers that will enable them to learn and conduct future training programs. Guides typically contain the theory behind the content being delivered. They also contain the delivery methodology, examples, tips and tricks that help the trainer.

c. Participants’ workbooks: These are “take aways” for participants who will undergo the training program. These workbooks contain learnings from the program, tools and methodologies participants can use in their workplace.

d. Pre and Post Assessments: Pre-assessments are conducted before the training program begins. Scores from the pre-assessments are measured against the post assessments to get the gain ration, which is an indication of the increase in learning by participants during the program.

e. Instructional components: OnTrac develops various instructional components that increase the effectiveness of training program. Such components include:

o Case Studies

o Examples

o Games and Simulations

o Multi Media components including audios and videos

o Individual and group activities

f. Post program follow up mechanism: A weakness in majority of training programs is that participants are not able to implement their learnings at their workplace. Also, their immediate managers are not involved in the training and can therefore not leverage their team member’s new skills. OnTrac has solid expertise in creating post training follow up mechanisms that allow participants to implement their learning, keep the managers and senior management involved in the entire process.

g. Tools and methodologies: OnTrac has expertise in developing tools and methodologies that help participants implement their learning.

h. Train the Trainer (TTT): Post content development, OnTrac works with the client to build expertise in its training team to conduct the training program. The entire TTT is planned as a separate project, with pre-work and trainer evaluations as part of the methodology.

i. Measurement of Training Effectiveness: OnTrac builds tools and mechanisms for clients to measure training effectiveness. OnTrac uses the industry standard Kirkpatrics 4 levels of measuring effectiveness.
