The NIIT Advantage

How we create effective learning experiences

Determining what to teach can be a challenge for even the most qualified learning experts. Often, curriculum designers struggle to make a choice between what learners ought to know versus what they really struggle with.

Dr. Gregg Collins, Chief Learning Scientist at NIIT talks about our content development process.

Critical Mistake Analysis – our award winning and proprietary methodology

We employ our proprietary Critical Mistake Analysis (CMA) methodology to ensure business alignment and measurable results. CMA provides a practical framework to identify the mistakes that have maximum business impact and design learning challenges around them to create effective learning experiences.

A Platform-Agnostic Level Playing Field

We have implemented courses on multiple platforms and ensure that interoperability standards are met in all the content we produce. As a purveyor of LMS-ready content, our learning products are developed to “play” within the widest possible range of Learning Management Systems.

NIIT content is compliant with SCORM 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, and 2004. NIIT is AICC Certified. During the delivery and implementation phase of a project, NIIT conducts a complete Quality Assurance to ensure course operability and eliminate unforeseen technical or functional issues. To ensure complete interoperability, we consult with our customers to fully understand requirements and develop a custom Quality Control Plan and testing procedure.

NIIT provides ongoing support to customers and their end users through a helpdesk for technical support questions and to address any functional issues.
