- It is a ratio reflecting the number of minutes (or hours) required to develop 1 minute (or hour) of elearning at a given interactivity level. For example, on average, one minute of a Level 2 program will require 197 minutes (or just over 3.25 hours) of development time.

The two primary sources I use for benchmarks are Bryan Chapman’s research and Karl Kapp and Robyn Defelice’s 2017 ATD research. Of the two sources, I usually go for Chapman’s data, since it’s broken down with more detail. I find it helpful to refer clients to these sources, especially if they think training development should take barely any time. ...
For example, let’s say a client asks me to convert an existing full day training program to self-paced e-learning. This will be mostly linear with 25% interactivity but no branching scenarios. A “full day” or training in this case means 6 hours of actual content. The content itself is in pretty good shape; there’s slides, a participant guide, and a...
I always weigh different factors to tweak these benchmarks. Chapman’s numbers are for everyone on the team, not just my role, so many of these estimate should be lower.
Use these resources to create and compare your own time estimates (or to show stakeholders why you can’t create 5 hours of elearning in 3 weeks!). 1. My time tracking template. Now that I have multiple years of data, most of my estimates are based on my own stats rather than these benchmarks. However, I still use the industry benchmarks for compari...
Aug 16, 2021 · Here’s a comparison of the development time estimates from each calculator for a 45-minute eLearning course with level 2 interactivity and average complexity: eLearning Art: 149 hours; IconLogic: 178 hours; Writing Assistance: 90 to 165 hours
How Many Working Hours Equals One Hour Of Instruction? Most experts base estimates for how long it will take to devise an eLearning program on the number of employee hours it would take to create one hour of instruction.
May 21, 2014 · Storyboarding the course – It roughly takes about one working day or 8 hours to completely storyboard 15 minutes of e-Learning. Building the course – between 30 minutes and 1.5 hours per page depending on the complexity of the course and the tool used to build it.
According to Chapman’s research, to develop one hour of a level 2 eLearning course (that is, a course having multiple interactive components like videos, engaging exercises, quizzes, etc.) you will need: Around 17 hours for front-end analysis. Near about 25 hours for instructional design. And almost 21 hours for storyboarding. 6.
Apr 20, 2020 · Video recording and editing – between 5-8 hours for 1 hour of training. Assessments design and development – this again depends on the number of questions and the tool you use to build your...
