April 8, 2016 − Before the huge rise in multi-device e-learning, most online training courses predominantly used Flash for development, which is restricted to desktop and not supported by many mobile devices. Over time this caused a decline in the use of Flash, with more and more learners demanding digital, modern ‘on-the go’ learning experiences.
Converting Flash courses to HTML5 is a useful way to retain the existing assets of e-learning modules, but converting them into something on-demand and fully responsive. It can be a powerful method for organizations that are ready to embrace technology and go multi-device with their e-learning as it supports both desktop and all mobile devices (including tablets and smartphones).
Migrating existing legacy Flash courses to HTML5 can be an effective solution for organizations who do not have the time or budget to create bespoke content from scratch, as companies are able to make the most out of the content and resources they already have. Additionally it’s a far more time efficient approach to futureproofing online training, as a single bespoke module can take between 6-8 weeks to develop, whereas Mind Click’s Flash conversion services can migrate a twenty minute course in as little as two weeks.
“It’s so important to stay up-to-date in the world of learning technologies and at Mind Click we’re always looking for creative ways we can innovate and grow our services to assist our customers,” said Sean Reddington, managing director at Mind Click. “We’ve recently helped one of our great clients transform over 30 courses from Flash to HTML5, so their learners can experience on-demand training on-the-go. And with the ever growing need for delivering learning that’s modern and responsive, we understand that this is an essential service for organizations who want to take those first steps towards mobile learning.”
With learners’ needs ever-shifting towards digital e-learning experiences, Mind Click’s legacy conversion services are key for organizations that don’t have the resources in-house but have the need to future proof their e-learning.
