We have been fortunate to have the unique experience of producing the World’s
largest non-tutored, online distance learning MBA program, and managing its
content over 14 years of commercial growth and success. This program comprised
45 Master level (20 credit) modules; 20+ million words; 7000+ illustrations and
videos; and 900+ individual course components; all capable of delivering 4000+
hours of interactive online study and assessment in four different languages. It
was delivered on paper and online to a global audience of tens of thousands of
students in 160+ countries. We’ve widened and deepened that experience by
producing 30+ more online programs for 20+ education providing organisations
over two decades. This has enabled us to refine and optimise what we do, and to
productise and scale it for others to adopt and exploit for themselves. Epic
efforts such as program building, require teams of digital publishing education
specialists to continuously cherish and maintain the materials, and design and
operate the various production and management processes that arise around them.
MIT call such people Learning Engineers – creative professionals who help build
bridges between fields of education and information technologies. They create
new infrastructures to help teachers teach, and students learn. They are
generalists in learning theory and technology competence, but can also be
specialists in a given science or humanities discipline.
