GAPGAP Lack time and instructor expertise to complete online program

“The reason we chose to go with WIDS was pretty simple; WIDS was able to develop a quality product. The courses were developed in WIDS. Then online course content was created and placed into our learning management system.  The Instructional Design consultants were knowledgeable in course content development and were great to work with.”
