Everyone will know what they are responsible for, what they’ve been tasked with and what needs to be worked on next.
Whether you follow ADDIE, SAM, Agile or other learning models, Synapse allows you to customize the platform to how your team works.
You have full visibility into the lifecycle of a request right from submission through to project planning, storyboarding, collaboration, development and deployment.
Project owners, and other stakeholders collaborate easily on dedicated cards where they can contribute content, assign priority, attach requests and more.
Our collaborative platform allows you to leverage built in best practices in instructional design to rapidly blueprint courses and author content while working more efficiently with SMEs and other stakeholders.

“We’ve been able to establish a process where we didn’t have one before. Now we can see who requested the training, what are they looking for, and everyone on the team can see it.”

Training requests are received ad hoc or through disconnected forms or spreadsheets.
Business partners get little feedback into where their request is in the queue, causing frustration and tension.
Projects prioritization happens in meetings to assess who is available and which projects should be worked on next.
Course design and planning happens in documents and spreadsheets, disconnected from intake and development.
SMEs contribute content via email, chat or project management tools, leaving designers to cut and paste information into specialized authoring tools.
Course review happens far into the development phase making rework time consuming and cumbersome.
Design and development are two entirely separate phases, lengthening the time it takes to get to a finished course.
Publishing courses to an LMS requires exporting a static SCORM file, importing into an LMS and updates and changes are made through a repeat of this process.
Training requests are centrally managed through a dedicated portal with customizable, standardized forms so consistent information is captured.
Business partners have a dedicated dashboard so they know the status of every request they’ve made at a glance.
Project prioritization happens on the Synapse planning board showing full visibility into project ownership and status.
Course design and planning happens in a collaborative, centralized platform, using templates to ensure quality and consistency.
SMEs contribute content directly into Synapse as collaborators on the project, and communicate directly within the platform.
Course review happens throughout development by tagging SMEs and stakeholders to ensure the course is aligned to business goals.
Design and development are done using an agile approach where a blueprint and prototype are developed in real time.
Publishing courses to an LMS is done through exporting a dynamic SCORM file that only needs to be imported into an LMS once with all updates happening in Synapse with a single click.
Synapse is purpose-built software for learning and development teams that is focussed on your upfront processes. It’s time to consolidate those disparate tools you are using for training intake, project planning and content design and work more efficiently and digitally with Synapse.
