eLearning Development Services

What Are eLearning Development Services?

eLearning development services cover the full process of designing, building, and deploying digital training content for your organization — from initial learning strategy and storyboarding through to final SCORM-packaged modules ready to deploy in your LMS.

A professional eLearning development partner like IKHYA brings instructional designers, visual designers, voiceover production, and technical development under one roof, so you don't have to manage a fragmented chain of freelancers or build this capability in-house.

The result: training that actually gets completed, retained, and applied on the job.

The Problems We Solve

Most organizations come to us with one of these situations:

• No internal instructional design capacity. Your subject matter experts know the content, but nobody on the team knows how to turn it into engaging digital learning. We bridge that gap entirely.
• Outdated training that no one completes. Slides exported to PDF, hour-long videos with no interaction, compliance modules from 2017 that learners click through in two minutes. We rebuild it in formats that actually work.
• A new LMS with nothing to put in it. You've invested in an LMS platform — Cornerstone, Docebo, SAP SuccessFactors, Workday, or your own system — and now need SCORM-compliant, high-quality content to populate it.
• Scaling faster than training can keep up. Rapid headcount growth means onboarding needs to be efficient, consistent, and not dependent on a manager's availability to deliver it manually.

What IKHYA Delivers

Every engagement is scoped to your goals, but most of our eLearning development work includes:

• Instructional Design & Learning Strategy We start with your learning objectives — not your slide deck. Our instructional designers apply proven frameworks (ADDIE, SAM, backwards design) to determine what learners actually need to know, do, and feel differently after training. This drives every downstream decision.
• Custom Course Development We build fully custom modules using industry-leading authoring tools including Articulate Storyline, Articulate Rise, Lectora, and Adobe Captivate. Every course is designed for your brand, your audience, and your specific content — not adapted from a library.
• Interactive & Scenario-Based Learning Multiple-choice questions don't build skills. We use branching scenarios, simulations, decision trees, and case-study-based content to put learners in realistic situations where they practice making the right judgment calls.
• Microlearning Modules Short, focused, performance-support content deployed at the moment of need. Ideal for reinforcement, just-in-time learning, and mobile-first workforces.
• Video & Animation Production From talking-head explainer videos to fully animated sequences, we produce learning video content that increases engagement and retention compared to text-heavy modules.
• SCORM / xAPI / AICC Packaging All deliverables are packaged in your required technical standard and tested for compatibility with your LMS before delivery. We handle the technical handoff, not just the creative work.
• Localization & Translation If your workforce spans geographies, we support full course localization — not just text translation but cultural adaptation and multilingual voiceover.

Industries We Serve

Our Development Process

We run a structured engagement model built for clarity and speed — from your first conversation to final delivery.

Step 1 — Discovery & Scoping (Week 1) We learn your audience, objectives, LMS environment, brand guidelines, and existing materials. We define the scope, timeline, and success metrics for the project.

Step 2 — Instructional Design & Storyboarding (Weeks 2–4) Our instructional designers create a full course storyboard: learning objectives, content structure, interaction design, scripts, and assessment strategy. You review and approve before we build a single frame.

Step 3 — Visual Design (Weeks 3–5) We develop a visual design mockup that matches your brand identity. You approve the look and feel before full production begins — no surprises at delivery.

Step 4 — Development & Production (Weeks 4–8) Full course build in your chosen authoring tool. Voiceover recording, animation, interaction development, and all multimedia elements are produced and assembled.

Step 5 — Review Cycles (2 rounds included) You receive a review link to your full course in a staging environment. Feedback is consolidated and incorporated through two structured revision rounds.

Step 6 — QA & LMS Testing We run full functionality testing across devices and browsers, then perform a live LMS upload test to confirm SCORM tracking works correctly before you take delivery.

Step 7 — Delivery & Handoff You receive the final SCORM/xAPI package, source files, and any supporting documentation. You own everything.

eLearning Development Pricing: What to Expect

Pricing for custom eLearning development depends on four primary variables: course length, interaction complexity, media production requirements, and revision scope.

These are directional ranges. Your actual investment depends on scope. The most reliable way to get an accurate number is a 30-minute scoping call.

Why Organizations Choose IKHYA

There are no shortage of eLearning vendors. Here is what consistently differentiates how we work:

• We start with outcomes, not outputs. A lot of agencies will build whatever you specify. We push back when the approach won't produce the results you need. Our goal is training that works, not just training that ships.
• We're authoring-tool agnostic. We don't force you into a single tool because it's the only one we know. We recommend the right tool for your content type, learner context, and LMS requirements.
• You own everything. Source files, assets, scripts — delivered in full at project close. No vendor lock-in.
• We operate like partners, not order-takers. You get a dedicated project manager, consistent communication, and access to the same team throughout your project — not a rotating cast of contractors.
• Transparent revision process. Our fixed-scope engagements include structured review rounds so you know exactly what's included — and so projects don't drift.

What Clients Say

"IKHYA took our legacy compliance training — a nightmare of dated slides — and rebuilt it into something our employees actually engage with. Completion rates went from 54% to 91% in the first quarter after launch. The process was painless, and they kept us on schedule despite our stakeholder review cycles." — VP of Learning & Development, Regional Healthcare Network (1,200 employees)

"We needed seven modules built and deployed before our Q4 product launch. Most vendors told us it wasn't possible. IKHYA scoped it out, told us what trade-offs we'd need to accept, and delivered on time with no shortcuts on quality. We'll use them for every product training cycle going forward." — Director of Enablement, B2B SaaS Company, Austin TX

"What sold us was the storyboarding process. Before they touched the authoring tool, we had a document that mapped every screen, every decision point, every piece of narration. We knew exactly what we were getting. No other vendor we evaluated operated that way." — L&D Manager, Financial Services Firm, Chicago IL

Case Studies

1. Compliance Overhaul for a Multi-State Healthcare Group

The challenge: A regional healthcare organization with 1,200 employees across six states had not updated their HIPAA, workplace safety, and patient communication training in four years. Completion rates were below 60%, and a joint commission review flagged the program.

What we built: Six fully redesigned modules using scenario-based branching, real-world patient interaction simulations, and a consolidated assessment framework. All SCORM 2004 packaged for their SuccessFactors LMS.

Outcome: Completion rate reached 91% within the first cycle. Joint commission review passed. Annual retraining time per employee reduced from 4 hours to 2.5 hours.

2. New Hire Onboarding Curriculum for a High-Growth SaaS Company

The challenge: A 300-person SaaS company scaling to 500+ was relying on manager-led onboarding that took 3+ weeks and varied in quality across departments. New hires consistently rated the experience below 6/10.

What we built: An eight-module digital onboarding curriculum covering company culture, product fundamentals, internal tools, and role-specific knowledge tracks. Built in Articulate Rise for clean, mobile-first delivery. Deployed in their Workday LMS.

Outcome: Time-to-productivity reduced by 22%. New hire onboarding satisfaction score moved from 5.8 to 8.4. Manager time spent on onboarding dropped by 60%.

3. Product Knowledge Training for a National Retail Brand

The challenge: A specialty retail chain with 200+ locations needed to train 3,000 floor associates on a new product line before the holiday season — in six weeks.

What we built: Five rapid eLearning modules built in Articulate Rise — product feature walkthroughs, customer objection handling scenarios, and a knowledge check assessment. Localized into Spanish for 40% of the workforce.

Outcome: Deployed on time across all 200+ locations. Associates who completed training showed 34% higher attach-rate on the featured product category in the first four weeks of the season.
