We also test and evaluate to ensure that student outcomes have been achieved.
Our assignments are based in areas as diverse as IT, HR, OH&S and Logistics.

Our staff have a spread of expertise beyond technical skills with backgrounds in information technology, HR, safety, education/learning and business analysis.
Our skill is in getting to know you and your systems, the way you do business, quickly.
We then discuss with you the best tools for the job that you ask us to do.
Within the I.T. and instructional design areas those tools might include the use of products and technologies such as Macromedia Flash, Director, Authorware, Dreamweaver, Fireworks, Adobe Framemaker (PDF), GoLive, PeopleBooks (PeopleSoft), Oracle Tutor, Weblite, MS Word, MS PowerPoint, HDK, RoboHelp, HTML, SGML and XML. Or we'll work with the comfortable tools you already have.

Talk to us about customised software and systems training solutions.
Online (interactive computer-based) training should also be an integral component of any corporate system because it:
reflects an organization's corporate culture
focuses on what an organization's users really need to know
increases technological awareness
reduces divisions between learning and working
invests in knowledge networks that enable individuals to share expertise
provides learn-on-demand opportunities
promotes educational interdependencies among peers within organizations
helps employees make the transition from paper-based to computer-based publications
can be easily designed to automatically track performance and results
facilitates training guarantee compliance
Maralan Documentation has the expertise and experience to put together a customised training package to fit any corporate need.
Philosophy:
There had to be a better way to bring technology implementations and people together. So we use our documentation, business analysis and training skills to help do just that, enabling people to work more productively, enjoyably and profitably.
Through writing great documentation and training material we bridge the often huge divide between those brilliant people who create great technologies and those who have to use them.
So we write, we train, we build courseware, learning tools, policy and procedure manuals, we analyse work flow and more.
Workplace Risk
We also use our documentation and training skills to help all of us make workplaces safer and industrial risks lower. The unlimited issues that can be covered by our documentation and training services also help your team "talk the same language" and comply with workplace and statutory requirements.
How? By creating interactive computer and competency based training packages, customised for your business, that explain in plain terms in a variety of languages issues such as safe workplace procedures, work instructions, OH&S concerns, policies and procedures and other task/job critical learning areas for all employees.
Our customised training modules will even test and assess your staff for work skills and compliance issues and report the results personally to each staff member, to you as their supervisor and perhaps to the HR or Training Department. At the same time electronically updating your staff / training records.
Business processes need to be properly documented
Many of the tools of quality management are based around the concept of a 'process'.
The simplest example of a process is a manufacturing production line. Raw materials go in one end, labour and machinery are used on the line, and the finished goods come off the other end.
The key here is that the focus is not on the people operating the line (although they are the most important resource), and it's not on the products that come off the end of the line, but on the process that produced them.
This is an example of 'process improvement', where the focus of the organisation is not so much on production outputs as on the development and improvement of the production process.
The long-term effect of this focus is to improve quality; fixing only the product does not improve quality long-term. Non-manufacturing organisations can also be seen as collections of processes.
The value of your business is more than its tangible assets. The business' investment in plant, equipment, inventory and real estate is easy to see and to value. The hidden capital of a business, represented by the accumulated skills of its staff, cannot be measured as easily as its physical assets. In fact, until it is written down, this business knowledge (often built up over many years) is almost impossible to quantify, analyse, or pass on.
However, once this knowledge has been documented it can be used as the basis for:
Reviewing processes and identifying areas for improvement
Ensuring that best practice is identified and used
Establishing quality or performance standards
Training new or existing staff
Business continuity and/or disaster recovery
Supply chain management, minimising the business risk of supplier failure
The development of standardised documentation is the first step towards recording the essential knowledge assets of your business. It's easy to see how this can lead to more customer satisfaction, increased sales, reduced staff turnover - the positive effects impact on almost every measurable area of the business:
