Courses Bursting With Colour: How We’re Building Authoring Tools You Can Have Fun With

Our goal is to make the hospitality staff training courses built with Innform work for everyone. That means building an authoring tool that managers can not only rely on, but have fun with! We believe hospitality companies should be able to offer their staff courses with awesome layouts, in many languages, and with a convenient audio track so they can just click play and listen to their course, rather than reading!

Today, we’re putting the finishing touches on our new course builder features. We’ll be rolling these out in the coming weeks:

  • A brand new course style that’s designed to fill your learner’s screen with bolder text and colour.
  • A customisable header for every page in your course, so you can brand sections or make them fit visually with your topic of choice
  • Include big, engaging images behind your colourful headers to draw people into your content
  • Include looping videos behind your headers to make the experience even richer
  • Automatically generate an audio file for every page of text, so your learners can click play and listen to your course in multiple languages
  • Translate your course from the course builder instantly, in multiple languages, with the click of a button
  • Include big, full width images in your course

Learning should be FUN!

Courses should be fun to make and to read.

Great content, when presented well, is the surest way to improve adoption of your LMS amongst your workforce, and will encourage your staff to spend time on the training software.

Hospitality is a rich, vibrant industry and we want to give it the courses it deserves!

Trainers can also enjoy a faster, slicker way to create courses while being able to customise every single page on the course. This goes a long way if your when delivering a highly branded experience.

Pick a colour, Innform will do the rest!

It’s very easy to customise your different course parts in the Innform course builder – simply pick a colour using the colour button at the top of every page.

Your learners will soon be able to listen to your course!

Every time you publish a course in a language that’s supported by Innform, an audio file is automatically generated. Your entire text will be automatically transformed into a fully audible course which your learners can enjoy by clicking play at any point during throughout the course.
