Instructional Design: Training Materials That Drive Real Performance
Professional training materials that are clear, practical, and easy to deliver.
At Olive Training Consultants, we create training materials that help organisations build capability—not just share information. If your current training materials feel inconsistent, too slide-heavy, or difficult for trainers to deliver, we design a complete, facilitator-ready package that turns learning into workplace performance.
Whether you need new training materials built from scratch, or you want to upgrade existing training materials, we’ll help you deliver learning that is engaging, measurable, and aligned to your business goals.

- Digital training materials support (when required)
- eLearning storyboards, scripts, LMS-ready quizzes, short lesson video outlines, learner communications templates
Training Materials Built From Scratch—or Improved From What You Already Have
- New training materials from zero: We start with outcomes and build training materials around real job behaviours.
- Upgrade existing training materials: We simplify, restructure, modernise and standardise your training materials so delivery is consistent and high-quality.
Training Materials for Technical Programmes (With SMEs)
For technical content, we work directly with your subject matter experts to capture knowledge and convert it into training materials that are teachable, structured, and practical—without losing accuracy.
Common Training Materials Problems (And How We Fix Them)
- Problem: Training materials are information-heavy but not behaviour-changing.
Solution: We convert content into application with scenarios, practice, feedback, and workplace tools. - Problem: Training materials decks are overloaded or unclear.
Solution: We rebuild training materials with clean structure, stronger visuals, and facilitator notes for confident delivery. - Problem: Training materials vary depending on who delivers the course.
Solution: We create robust facilitator guides, clear activity instructions, Train-the-Trainer activities, and standardised assessments. - Problem: Training materials don’t link to performance or business results.
Solution: We align training materials to role behaviours, set measurable outcomes, and build assessment tools that demonstrate competence. - Problem: Training materials don’t fit your culture or your context.
Solution: We design training materials that reflect your people, language, and workplace realities—particularly for multicultural teams across ASEAN.
