Who we work with

Quinnovation works with organizations looking to move up the eLearning value chain, from eLearning to ePerformance and beyond, to deliver measurable improvement in execution. When organizations realize it’s not about ‘content and a quiz’ on the web, but about delivering the ‘right stuff’: the right information to the right person at the right time and the right place in the right way on the right device, we provide strategic guidance to move forward. These would be companies who’ve started with eLearning, performance support/workflow, CMS, KM, and recognize that there’s more on the table; potentially much, much more.  They’re ready to think outside the box about how to leverage technology to contribute to the bottom line.

Companies that are ready to work with Quinnovation are:

Stuck in ‘training’ mode – where the solution is always a ‘course’, content on a screen and quiz, learner’s staying away in droves, and they want to make their elearning more compelling, effective, and efficient

In content rewriting hell – they get dumped with PPTs, PDFs, docs, and are rewriting it to turn it into meaningful content (and other training, documentation, and support groups are doing the same as a gross duplication of effort)

Lost with a host of new technology innovations – have heard of new technology initiatives – CMS, LCMS, KM, podcasts, wikis, blogs, mobile, etc. – and are wondering what it means for improving learning

Unsure how to meet the rapidly changing needs of the organization – where the learners are changing, the products are changing, the customers are changing, the competitions changing, and the learning’s changing

You’re ready to Quinnovate if:

You’ve tried eLearning – you’ve put content on a screen, with a quiz, and you’re ready to go further

You know you’re not taking advantage of corporate IT initiatives – knowledge management, content management systems, portals, wireless, social networks are happening and you’re wondering what to do

You want to play a strategic role – you’re tired of just doing training, and want to contribute more dynamically to organizational success

You’re ready to think out of the box – recognizing that innovation in learning design needs to be coupled with innovation in technology opportunities

If this is you, however, you’re not ready to Quinnovate:

You’re happy with off-the-shelf solutions – you’re satisfied to buy libraries or outsource your content development

You’re still about ‘training’ – instructional designers and production personnel or rapid tools alone are sufficient to meet your needs

"All these other things I have to do (like send this newsletter) and yet I spent several hours today playing this simulation. That, I think, says more than any description could." - Steven Downes
