Classroom material into digital learning people actually finish.
Manuals, slide decks and workshop material contain years of accumulated knowledge. Converting them well is usually the fastest route to a visible result.
Why does converted classroom training usually fail?
Because it gets digitised rather than redesigned. A three-hour workshop recorded as a three-hour video is not e-learning, it is a recording, and completion rates reflect that.
What worked in the room depended on a facilitator reading the audience. That has to be replaced with structure, pacing and interaction, not simply moved online.
What does legacy content conversion involve?
Auditing what exists, identifying what is still accurate, restructuring it around learning objectives rather than the original running order, then rebuilding it in a format suited to self-paced delivery.
Julia Mattey's background spans teaching, teacher training and facilitation, so the conversion accounts for what the facilitator was doing implicitly as well as what was on the slides.
Is converting existing material cheaper than starting again?
Usually, and it is almost always faster to a first visible result. The knowledge already exists and has been validated by use, so the work is structural rather than generative.
What this usually includes.
- ✓Audit of existing material
- ✓Accuracy and currency review
- ✓Restructuring around learning objectives
- ✓Facilitator guide development
- ✓Digital production and interaction design
- ✓Assessment and knowledge checks
Where this has been done.
More than 30 facilitator-ready worksheets across seven courses, built so the person delivering the session has what they need without preparation overhead.

Read the case study →Common questions.
Can our existing training materials be converted to e-learning?
Usually yes, and it is often the fastest route to a visible result because the knowledge has already been validated by use. The work is restructuring rather than starting from nothing.
What happens to material that is out of date?
It gets identified in the audit and either updated with your subject matter experts or removed. Converting inaccurate content is the most expensive mistake available in this kind of project.

Tell me what is not working.
If your training is expensive to maintain, slow to update, or not landing with the people it is for, I can usually tell you fairly quickly whether that is a content problem, a platform problem or a process problem.
