Complement Your Resources
With OP&S in your team you have the ability to complement your own in-house resources with our skills when you need to. We have instructional designers, scriptwriters, artists, programmers, training experts
and consultants with in depth training development experience able to contribute to a training solution at any stage in the process.
We are able to complement and bolster your training team at the place and time they need it most; resolving concerns, removing impediments and developing ways to make online training a beneficial, cost effective reality.
Partnering with OP&S
Clients are experts in their subject matter but most are not training experts. They need to become self sufficient in producing effective training material and rarely have a very long period in which to do that.
Partnering with OP&S means that all the processes involved in creating a training solution are managed on your behalf and we deliver a 'Total Training Solution'. OP&S delivers practical training solutions suitable for your business based on our industry-leading products and training expertise. We strongly believe in delivering to our customers what we have promised - quality deliverables, always on budget and on time (sometimes under pressure of tight deadlines). We are able to achieve this because of our approach.
OP&S Methodology
An OP&S training solution is one that has been rigorously planned, painlessly implemented and that your own team is fully equipped to deploy and manage into the future. To design the solution that is right for your company we follow a six phase process employing a methodology we call 'templatising'.
OP&S' methodology for delivering this Total Training Solution is, we believe, significantly more efficient, and therefore more cost effective than the usual approach taken by the training industry. This is because the whole solution is based on the assembly of constituent parts, or 'reusable learning objects'. Each of these objects is a discrete module that is built and tested in isolation and approved at modular level. This removes the inevitable time-wasting that results from the alternative, iterative methodologies. Any mid-project change to the final solution or addition to the project scope can be incorporated with minimal impact on work in progress.

We believe customers should be self-sufficient and have complete ownership of the solutions we deliver. Taking a partnership approach means that post project customers call on us to support or undertake tasks, using us as an extension to their team. |

- Evaluation - Modules are subjected to field testing on a significant number of learners, and feedback is collated. Collected data is interrogated to evaluate the adoption of the new learning methods.
- Updates and Maintenance - Changes in content and procedure inevitably means that existing modules need to be modified. OP&S provides you with the source code and assuming you purchased authoring tools at the production phase you are in a position to maintain courses in-house. The option of a maintenance agreement is available to cover OP&S updating your CBT on an ongoing basis.
