Easy and accessible content creation – even in stormy seas
Aprendio is a Danish start-up enabling high impact learning
in the maritime and renewable energy sectors.
Training to drive the green transition
Aprendio is a dynamic and scaling business and has ultra-expertise in its domain. Mikkel Hansen, CEO & Co-founder with more than 25 years of experience in the industry, explains: "The maritime and renewable energy sectors are rapidly changing – they are vital in enabling the huge ‘green’ transition as they help drive the world’s shift towards a green economy.
The need for additional and highly trained staff has never been greater with millions of new jobs being created globally."
To support the strong demand for better and faster training content, Aprendio needed to find a suitable authoring tool. Key considerations were the fast creation of e-learning content that was easy to distribute to learners anywhere in the world, and ease of accessibility.
Creating accessible, impactful content that can reach professionals anywhere
Aprendio reviewed many of the leading authoring tools, including imc Express. They found that the market was divided broadly into advanced tools and easy-to-use tools. As their focus is making an impact quickly for their clients’ organisations, Aprendio did not want a complex tool that would take them and their customers a long time to master and use.
“We especially liked the intuitiveness of imc Express and the quality of its output versus other tools.”
In Mikkel’s experience, one of the key factors to ensure a learner’s success is the language. Therefore, the automatic translation feature of imc Express is a great help for them. Because only if a learner really understands what they learn, they can internalise it, which is highly important especially when it comes to security training on ships.
The other critical element was for diverse, easily accessible content, which imc Express’ video and audio features provide, allowing learners to watch and listen while they practice or learn technical tasks. Mikkel summarises:
“We need to break-down barriers to learning and help people do their jobs well. imc Express allows us to do this.”
Bye bye old-fashioned learning materials, hello modern, accessible content!
Within a very short period, Aprendio have been able to deliver hundreds of additional high impact trainings to learners, and make learning shorter, smarter and more relevant. Mikkel said:
“I’ve actually been sitting onboard a ship, with a satellite connection, using imc Express to convert training they had made onboard into a course.”
“imc Express allows you to get training content in your learner’s hands fast. Not in a matter of months or weeks, but hours.”
The KPIs at a glance:
- Small team produced more than 60 training contents in less than 1 month from onboarding
- 50 % of Aprendio training content is now produced in imc Express
- Took creation of digital learning from months and weeks, down to hours
