Training Design and Development

That’s integrated and streamlined
Fit-for-purpose training communication.
We question and probe to understand your specific industry and business training needs so we can develop highly relevant, user-focused content.

TRAINING CONTENT AT THE RIGHT LEVEL, LANGUAGE AND CONTEXT

Having a training manual is one thing. Ensuring it’s integrated with your existing systems and procedures, easy to understand and used in the right way by your people is something else entirely. ITAD has a proven ability to write and design effective training content that connects with specific user groups across a broad range of industries.
Integration with Procedures
Our approach integrates your training content and design with your existing processes and procedures, so that it’s simplified, easy to access and compliant.
  • Streamlined training communication
  • Single sourcing concepts so your people can access what they need from only one source
  • No double-ups means training is easier to understand and easier to follow
  • Compliance-based for your specific industry
Training Systems
ITAD can develop comprehensive training content that becomes a functional part of your business, improving compliance and record management.
  • Effective scheduling for all your training needs, from first-aid to learning management, emergency and more
  • All scheduling from initial employee induction training to refreshers and annual updates
  • Accurate record management to meet your training compliance obligations
Training Design and Documentation
By consulting with you, we carefully assess your training needs to design training content that’s integrated with your procedures and consistent across all formats.
  • Single sourcing minimises the risk of human error

“We needed to develop technical manuals to support our products, especially to meet our military customer needs.
ITAD could provide advice and support to meet all our needs, including specialised defence format and content, and to our varying timeframes.”

Defence Project Manager
Defence industry manufacturer

“We had a large and complicated manual, written over 20 years ago, that was core to our business. We struggled with updates and trying to make it fit with the changes to our business. With support from ITAD, we divided the content into logical and modular documents to better suit our needs. Now we have good working level content which is easy to use and keep current.”

Asset Manager

“Our task was to review some incident management documents and develop training for a local branch of a global mining and resources company. ITAD had created the manual using Plain English as a guide. The manual was easy to read and understand. It was one of the best I have reviewed in almost 20 years in this job.”

FAQs

Can I buy an off-the-shelf content package?

We don’t provide off-the-shelf content because every business is different. If your content doesn’t fit your business, it simply won’t be used. We collaborate closely with you to identify your specific needs so that your technical content is viable, relevant and adhered to by your people.

If it’s customised, does this mean your service costs more?

Our tailored approach actually saves businesses money and time, and reduces potentially costly risks. Because we consult closely with you, we develop only what you need, and we work with your existing resources as much as possible.

Why can’t we handle technical communication internally?

Your people are the subject matter experts. We specialise in asking the right questions to draw out salient information before converting it to high-quality content that meets your specific needs. We have the knowledge, skills and experience to develop technical communication in the most accurate, streamlined and efficient way. Your experts then review and approve the final content.

How can you write for my industry if you don’t work in my industry?

Our technical communication processes and methodologies are transferrable across industries. Using the technical and industry knowledge gleaned from your identified subject matter experts, we work closely with you throughout the entire process using a planned process to develop, review and approve all content.

Can you help us if we just need a single document?

Yes, we can develop technical content from a single document right through to a complete system. We specialise in ensuring that each document is integrated with your existing systems and processes.

Do you just supply written content?

We supplement our written content with high-quality visual support wherever appropriate. Our graphically enhanced images and illustrations are integrated within the documentation to optimise user understanding.

Everything starts and ends with consultation

Every client’s content needs are different, and that’s why we look at the whole picture instead of a single piece of information or a single procedure. Through our close consultation process we can help identify any gaps that may impede the viability and use of the information. We can also help with:

  • Business analysis
  • Needs analysis
  • Project management
  • Change management
