Released client testimony
“We had a vision for teaching our customer-facing employees about our evolved and expanded service offerings, and how to communicate our value to the customer. What we didn't have was a plan on how to get there. SDI proved to be invaluable when it came to expanding our vision into a unique, impactful eLearning experience.”

eLearning FAQ
Common questions about custom eLearning development
01What eLearning authoring tools do you use?
We work with all major authoring tools including Articulate Storyline and Rise, Adobe Captivate, Lectora, and custom HTML5 development. We select the best tool for your needs, LMS requirements, and maintenance preferences.
02Will the eLearning work with our LMS?
We can publish to standards such as SCORM 1.2, SCORM 2004, and xAPI for common enterprise learning platforms, including environments built around Workday Learning, SAP SuccessFactors Learning, and Cornerstone. Compatibility is verified against your exact platform version, configuration, security requirements, reporting model, and publishing workflow before release rather than assumed from the standard alone.
03Can you make eLearning accessible for learners with disabilities?
Yes. Accessibility requirements are established in the design brief and can include WCAG 2.2 AA and applicable Section 508 criteria, keyboard operation, screen-reader behavior, captions, transcripts, contrast, focus order, and meaningful alternatives. The agreed conformance target is then tested against the actual course and delivery environment.
04How interactive are your eLearning courses?
We create highly engaging courses with scenarios, simulations, branching paths, gamification elements, knowledge checks, and interactive assessments. Every course is designed for active learning, not passive clicking.
05Can you convert our existing PowerPoints to eLearning?
Yes, but we recommend more than simple conversion. We analyze your content and redesign it for the eLearning medium, adding interactivity, scenarios, and assessments that maximize learning effectiveness.
