    We do not have any instructional designers on our team. If I pick up your book “Instructional Designn Companion,” will I be able to start developing courses?

      Hi Sarah,
      I am not going to minimize the importance of having a good instructional designer on your team. Having said that, as long as you have an authoring tool such as Articulate Rise, Storyline, Adobe Captivate, Lectora, or your choice of several others (and you know how to use them), Instructional Design COMPANION can be of great assistance. The section on ADDIE contains a mind map with the process steps you need to take en-route to course completion. In addition, each page has questions for you to ask subject matter experts (SMEs) and stakeholders during each step. You can join my network on LinkedIn (if we are not already connected), and we can discuss your situation further.
      Thanks,
      Chuck

        As a follow-up, instructional designers have developed their craft over years. In addition, many are experts in video creation, scenario-building, gamification, creating assessments that work, and so much more. They have gone through the painstaking process of learning what works and what doesn’t work. There are sections in the book on pilot testing and overcoming objections which are good.
