‘Take Away Learning’ Menu from Trainer1

Independent e-learning specialists Trainer1 have brought the concept of ‘take away’ pricing to learning with their à la carte and set menus for teaching the use of the popular e-learning authoring tool, Lectora.

"With the Trainer1 Lectora menu, you can learn Lectora at your pace, as you require," explained Trainer1’s Neil Lasher. "You can choose a 'set menu' or individual modules from the menu – and all sessions can be taken online or on location.

"Each module runs for some 90 minutes and, to qualify for a ‘one day, one-to-one’ training session, you need to select just four modules from the range available. However, learners need only take one session if they wish."

There are three ‘set menus’ to choose from: for beginners, ‘intermediate’ and ‘advanced’, while the à la carte modules are grouped under the headings of ‘interface’, ‘media’, ‘assessment’, ‘text’, ‘forms’ and ‘program control’.

The price for one session is £150; for two sessions, £250 and for four sessions, £450. These can be taken at once or over a period.
