An organization’s most valuable assets are its employees and their collective knowledge. Your company benefits when you invest in people by attracting, retaining, and developing quality employees.
Tendoors’ instructional design consultants work with your department managers and executive leadership to help develop talent and performance management practices. They are well-versed in the latest trends in talent management, including social media and mobile devices. They are also knowledgeable in other methodologies, including the competitive assessment model and the coaching and development model.
Modalities
Many of our consultants have blended learning experience, while others specialize in eLearning, mobile learning (mLearning), informal learning, instructor-led training (ILT), or a combination thereof. Our consultants can conduct needs analyses to identify the appropriate training solutions, then develop and deliver them.
Classroom Training (ILT)
Tendoors’ instructional design consultants understand the business impact of taking employees from their everyday duties to attend classroom training—whether in a physical or virtual environment.
Our consultants maximize your workforce learning experience by designing courses that make learning effective, memorable, and focused on meeting business objectives. Instructor-led training (ILT) as well as virtual ILT (vILT) may include pre-work for participants, hands-on training in a lab environment, or role plays and case studies.
eLearning
Computer- and web-based training has matured rapidly in the past few years. eLearning may be delivered by an instructor or be self-paced. Tendoors consultants know the capabilities of each eLearning tool and their applicability to your company’s specific training needs. We have hands-on experience with the authoring software used in many corporate training departments, including iSpring, Captivate, and Articulate, as well as many lesser known tools. Our consultants are forward-thinking instructional designers who develop innovative “serious learning games” for corporate training.
Mobile Learning
Employees who are on-the-go for business can take advantage of learning offered on portable technologies such as smartphones and tablets. Mobile learning (mLearning) can be accessed anywhere: in the office, at the airport, or on the plane. Tendoors’ consultants have the technical and instructional design know-how to integrate mLearning into the blend, and create productive, meaningful learning experiences.
Informal Learning/Social Learning
Our instructional designers use social media tools (e.g., blogs, wikis, podcasting, and media libraries) to create a collaborative learning environment, where a community of learners can grow into a Community of Practice.
Blended Learning
After conducting a thorough training needs analysis, our instructional designers can create blended learning solutions that use two or more training delivery mediums or use different types of learning activities to facilitate learning. Blended learning may be an appropriate solution to meet participants’ time constraints or incorporate different learning styles.
Content Development
Tendoors’ content development consultants will work with your subject matter experts to produce instructionally sound course content within the parameters of the course design.

Informal Learning/Social Learning
Our instructional designers use social media tools (e.g., blogs, wikis, podcasting, and media libraries) to create a collaborative learning environment, where a community of learners can grow into a Community of Practice.
New Hire Orientation
