Thanks Jonathan for sharing the questionnaire. It's very useful.

to consider.

OnDemand, Resite, Articulate, Captivate, Lectora, PowerPoint, Word) with which
you are experienced and the types of deliverables you created with each tool.

the SAP version being deployed by your client?

development life cycle. (Example, were you involved in curriculum development
and in preparing course outlines, or did you only develop courseware
deliverables after another team member [or the client] completed the curriculum
and course outlines?)

> 5. Discuss your experience developing instructor-led deliverables (i.e.
InfoPak/UPerform parent documents, child documents, concept slides, exercises,
training data).
>
> 6. Discuss your experience developing web-based courseware deliverables (i.e.
storyboards, transaction simulations, audio/video elements).
>
> 7. (If the candidate expresses significant web-based experience, I normally
ask the candidate to...) Discuss your involvement in the web-based courseware
engineering. (Example, did you prepare only the storyboards and hand off the
course for someone else to engineer the content - mouseovers, popups,
animations, etc.)
>
> 8. In your experience with past projects, what training development metrics
did the training leadership use for developing new instructor-led courseware?
(i.e. For every hour of instructor led course content, how many hours of
training development did the leadership allow?) (You may expect this same
question for web-based courseware, if that is a significant part of the overall
training expectation.)
>
> 9. Were you responsible for the full course development (from course outline
through the final deliverables including training data), or only selected
deliverables? Be prepared to give details if you do not have experience in the
full course development cycle.
>
> 10. Discuss the most difficult training development (instructional design)
challenge that you personally overcame, and provide details of your success or
opportunity to improve.
>
> 11. On your past projects, were you solely responsible for developing the
learning content and knowledge check questions?
>
> 12. Did you have an editor or technical writer that reviewed your courseware
drafts prior to client review? If yes, characterize whether the corrections
made by the editor/technical writer were extensive, moderate, or minimal. If
moderate or extensive, discuss one lesson-learned that you took away from the
editorial review process on a prior project.
>
> 13. How would you rank your own comfort level and experience with the
client's designated business language (i.e. English, Dutch, German)?
>
> 14. Discuss your experience in reviewing other training
developer/instructional design work from other team members.
>
> 15. I believe every training developer/instructional designer has both
strengths and weaknesses they bring to a training team. Discuss one area of
strength where your team members looked to you for guidance and expertise.
Also, discuss one area where you looked to other members of the team for
assistance.

prepare for your current and future engagements.
