Dev Diaries: Making training easier for trainers

Update by Morgane Tanguy, UX Designer ​

One of the things we identified from our user research is that creating training is time-consuming, and even more so when that training is online.

So, right now, the Neve team is working on ways to remove that burden from the trainer. 

To do this, we're working on ways to make it easier for trainers to build courses and create content, such as modules and activities, within those courses.  

Our current potential solutions include:  

• Allowing trainers to add new modules and reuse modules when they are creating a course.  
• Providing a structure to create their course, modules and activities within the modules, so they can focus on the content without worrying about anything else.   
• We’re also looking at ways to allow more and more flexibility to allow the trainers to organise and reorganise their modules and tasks. Because, as you can probably imagine, creating a course involves a creative process so we need to have this flexibility.  
• We are also thinking of within each module, allowing trainers to create tasks, like activities or a one-to-one call with a student.  

We are doing some user tests on these solutions using the wireframe, and the feedback so far is that it feels like a very comfortable environment for the trainers. 

We’re also gathering some thoughts around how we can better organise the activities within the modules. And the developers are looking at how we can technically build this.  

That’s it for now. Thanks for reading, and we’ll be back for another update soon. If you’d like to talk to the team send them a message and find out more about Neve, on our home page.
