By integrating the right mix of advisory, delivery, communication, and support services, Beyond Campus Innovations (BCI) can help you get the eLearning results your organization needs.
eLearning Change Management (eLCM) is a critical process. It helps organizations transition to a new level of operational quality and efficiency, driving growth and development.
Impact from Top to Bottom
The introduction of change or a new direction for eLearning can impact your organization from top to bottom. With BCI’s change management approach to understanding your business, we help you drive value through sustainable change in learning and training offerings, from process changes and employee impact to technology and business improvements.
Change Begins with People
Your organizational learning strategy is only as strong as your people. That’s why institutions and companies with strong change management strategies continually outperform their peers.
Whether you are upgrading your learning management system (LMS) or revamping your eLearning processes, BCI can help you promote leadership support, improve user buy-in and drive faster ROI through sustainable change management.
Our process extends beyond just training to include:
Vision alignment
Communication
Engagement
Cultural elements
Organizational readiness
Change sustainment
BCI gives you a toolkit that is useful and practical. Our team implements reusable tools and assets to help jumpstart your change process. Because we have years of experience in this area, we can help anticipate pitfalls that may occur along the way. As your change management consultant and eLearning partner, we align solutions with the unique needs of your organization so you can prioritize understanding, buy-in, and ROI.
Providing transparency into organizational planning, including what it will take to execute those plans, enables your employees to sufficiently prepare for the change. Consistent messaging helps employees understand the “why” and “how” behind organizational changes, increasing retention of information and the adoption of new behaviors or processes. Effective communication requires a deliberate framework that will incorporate multiple platforms and ensure information is distributed logically and timely.
Businesses, universities, colleges and associations are being transformed in many ways:
Market pressures
Reductions in funding
Acquisitions
Digitally
Through the introduction of new technologies
Restructuring
Regulatory changes
Our change management strategy services include an array of innovative tools and resources, which we adapt to meet the needs of every client’s unique situation.
Driving Sustainable Change
Transformation is also driven by new leadership, as well as by strategic decisions to change direction to position for growth or react to changing financial conditions. The same challenges typically apply: the need for a new organizational design, culture, and behavior, as well as the right leadership and talent.
At BCI, our change management leadership team members focus on enabling transformations through organizational and people-based solutions to drive sustainable change.
Goals and Behaviors Must Be Aligned
The desire to move quickly with an eLearning strategy often leads to unsustainable change. To achieve successful change, institutions must first align goals and behaviors, then align processes necessary for desired change.
What Our Clients are Saying
“If you’re looking for a company that can come in and understand your organization and implement eLearning projects on time and on budget, then BCI is a great choice.”

5 Components of Successful, Sustainable Change
There are five components of change that will help guide you on your journey. Use these as a checklist to measure your ability to execute:
Assess and Monitor your Organizational Risk
Align Leaders
Communicate frequently and with Purpose
Educate and Train your Workforce
Establish New Processes, Roles and Responsibilities
Assess and Monitor Your Organizational Risk
Begin with a risk and readiness assessment of your organization. When executed well, this assessment will indicate the possibility of an implementation being successful and what associated barriers need to be addressed early in the process. The objectives of this assessment include:
Identify barriers which must be addressed
Identify opportunities to leverage organizational strengths
Measure the ability of your organization and workforce to embrace change
Assess the alignment of leadership and resources
Determine the effectiveness of your organization’s current approach to learning
Identify which systems and processes hold people accountable
Provide team members with a way to provide feedback
The Need to Align Leaders
While institutions may have a large vision related to instruction, there are many ways this can be interpreted by leaders. Without a specific and targeted plan, change in learning can lead to fatigue or anxiety, as well as a sense that nothing is really changing. Creating a clear, specific definition of the future state is critical, at both the institutional and initiative levels.
That vision of the future state should include both broad outcomes as well as defined outputs that clearly define – subjectively and objectively – what success looks like.
Ask yourself the following questions:
Have we clearly defined measures of success for individual initiatives and our institution as a whole?
Are our strategic goals or initiatives competing with one another?
Have we clearly established priorities?
Can we realistically dedicate or assign resources to these initiatives?
Built on a foundation of integrity, honesty, and quality, we bring both depth and experience to solve your most pressing business and technology challenges when it comes to eLearning and training.
Our step-by-step approach allows us to understand your business and identify customized solutions based on your specific needs.
