This blog post is by Articulate Community Manager David Anderson.
Have you ever noticed how many different ways there are to build e-learning courses? There’s a lot, right? It’s really cool to work in an industry where we have so many creative options for delivering training.
Options empower us to find new and better ways to design our training. But those same options can also seem overwhelming—especially to folks just getting started.
That’s where having a nest of trusted resources like E-learning Heroes is important.
