Ways to Work Together
Our focus is on finding the right solution to address your unique needs, challenges, and goals. Sometimes, this is done at the kick-off meeting if you already have a good understanding of your needs, and other times it’s more thorough.
After that, we either land on one modality for learning delivery or we go with a blended learning approach, with some combination of the following:
- Needs, Gap, Learner Analysis
- eLearning
- Virtual Instructor-Led Training (vILT) and Instructor-Led Training (ILT)
- Conversion from ILT to eLearning or vILT
- Learning Strategy and Consulting
- Knowledge Checks and Assessments
- Branching Scenarios and Realistic Practice
- Simulations
- Animated and Explainer Videos
- Microlearning
- Job Aids and Support Materials
- Gamification
- Technical Writing
- Voiceover Narration

How It Works
Don’t waste your time elsewhere
"Jill and the Applied Instructional Design Academy team are here to guide you and lead you down the right path so you don’t have to waste a bunch of time figuring it out on your own. I have been working a 100% remote job for about a year because of AIDA and honestly I feel like I’m retired at 34. "
Music teacher turned ID
"I am so thankful to Jill and her team for everything that they do. The support that I have received from her and her team has allowed me to grow in ways I never imagined. In a few weeks, I start my new job in Instructional Design/eLearning Development and it would not have been possible without Applied Instructional Design Academy."
5 job offers with no ID experience
"I've been asked a couple of times how I was able to transition so quickly into Instructional Design and what was the secret to my success. My answer to that is the Applied Instructional Design Academy (aka AIDA)!!!!! I received job offer number 5 by June. YES, I said 5! If you are considering transitioning into Instructional Design and are looking for where to start to get your foot in the door. AIDA is the answer. Point, blank, period."

Frequently Asked Questions
The short answer is “it depends.” Factors to consider include complexity of content, authoring tool used, availability, readiness, and state of source content, availability of Subject Matter Experts, and complexity of course design. It can be anywhere from 60 to 300 hours of work time, spread out over a period of time that fits within the schedules of all involved.
Contact us and we can give you a better idea of the time involved.
Technically, you don’t have to have anything ready, but it depends on your budget and timeline. If you just have a performance problem or idea that you need developed and analyzed to come up with the right solution, we can do that. That may mean that the source content needs to be gathered or is in someone’s head, which is fine. Or, you might know exactly what you want and have the source content available in PPTs, documents, websites, previous courses, etc. That works also and is better for smaller budgets and shorter timelines.
This is another question that is hard to answer. It’s like asking how long a piece of string is. We create custom quotes based on your individual needs, because we are designing a custom learning solution that is right for your organizational goals. It depends on complexity of content, authoring tool used, availability, readiness, and state of source content, and complexity of course design.

We work with all types of businesses. We recognize that the needs are different and the tools used are often different as well, as many small businesses don’t have Learning Management Systems. That’s ok, we can work around that.
It depends on the modality that the training ends up being developed in, but if it’s eLearning, you will get the source files that we develop and any published files for upload to your LMS (or instructions for deployment if you don’t have an LMS.)
If Virtual Instructor-Led or any other modality, you will get all Facilitator Guides, Participant Guides, PowerPoints, job aids, videos, and any other supplementary materials.
Throughout the project, we will be providing you with a Design Document and Storyboard (for eLearning) so that you can give us feedback along the way.
