We can work with you and help maximize the effectiveness of your training and reduce the cost. And, we can develop and deliver instruction from beginning to end-from developing curriculum and training materials to delivering and evaluating the training.

Using the most up-to-date research and best educational practices, we can help you identify content and educational strategies. Depending on your needs, we can help you develop a curriculum by conducting a task analysis and producing measurable objectives (what should be taught), a learning task analysis (how it should be taught; i.e., sequence, best learning medium and mode, practice), and/or develop tests and test items to evaluate the training outcomes.

CIMES will show you how to conduct a review-select process to avoid up to 92 percent of the cost and one-third of the time normally involved in developing training materials. However, for those areas that require development, we will develop materials that are specifically geared to meet the requirements of your training task, training environment, and training population. Using the latest technologies and appropriate learning strategies, we will customize the training materials to meet your specific needs.

• Conduct a needs assessment and a job-task analysis.
• Develop goals and objectives, an instructional analysis, content outlines, and delivery methods.
• Search, review, and select or develop materials and conduct a formative evaluation.
• Conduct in-service training.
• Conduct evaluations of the impact of instruction/training on learners, organizational performance, and strategic goals.

You may think that you don't have the time and funds to go through extensive field trials for your training materials; however, we can provide customized services that make sure that the training meets its objectives. The structure of our staff makes it possible for us to carry out the simultaneous development, evaluation, and production of high-quality training materials.

We can develop a training program that fits your needs, in whatever training mode or medium you require. We can develop training for individualized or trainer-led instruction using a variety of media, including print, electronic presentations, or the Web.

• E-Learning
• Web-based Training (WBT)
• On-line Help Systems
• Knowledge Portals and Communities of Practice
