There has been much debate recently within the UK elearning community about the challenges and opportunities presented by rapid elearning. Elearning professionals are examining the value they bring to the development process.

Information Transfer has created a number of award-winning elearning projects, some using rapid authoring tools and others more traditional bespoke processes. Rapid elearning development offers advantages for certain elearning projects that more traditional development methods cannot match. In this session, Nicola Foster explains how Information Transfer has moved one stage further with the approach that they call ‘agile elearning,’ to reflect not only the speed of production but other benefits such as co-ordination, increased flexibility and responsiveness, and professional expertise applied where it can deliver most value.
