If you have decided to expand your traditional instructional design skills or facilitation skills into the area of e-learning, getting started can be a challenge. Which software should you purchase? Do you need much of a background in graphic or multimedia design? How much time should you expect to spend learning these tools?

These questions are real and pose a distinct challenge for both individual training professionals and departments considering rolling training programs out via the web. This workshop addresses all of those topics and more. You will leave with the names of over 200 pieces of software you can use to create graphics, multimedia, animation, and code for your e-learning project. You will demo several pieces of software, including Captivate, Storyline, Rapid Intake, Flash, and Photoshop.
