Sleuthing Out the Non-Compliance! Team Apparatus was introduced to the subject of arms regulation through a huge document. We also got to learn that the trainees get a similar document. The document was complicated with many jargons and was not an engaging or educational. The challenge was to convert this into an engaging online learning tool.

In the first brainstorming session at Content Enablers office at Great Falls, VA we knew that we have to use a structure that the manufacturing companies are used to. We created the instructional structure and the navigation based on a generic business process. We called each node a Key Process Area (KPA). Each KPA had an overview, a set of scenarios and case studies. All these had to be threaded through with a singular concept.

After deliberating over the concept we finally arrived at the Film Noir detective comic book and Max Blanca was born. We scripted the overviews, created the strips for scenarios, photographed and constructed the case studies at our Bangalore studio. The video snippets of Max were shot with a talent and a voice talent recorded the noir-style voice over at Virginia.

The entire courseware took over three months to assemble and was delivered over the learning platform to the first set of learners right after. The courseware was well received by the learners.
