In addition to editing skills, a great eLearning developer excels at organizing multimedia assets and creating detailed storyboards to ensure cohesive and effective learning experiences.
Familiarity with LMS and LRS technology – As companies often employee an LMS and/or an LRS of some form, A strong understanding of how LMS/LRS systems track learner data, allows the eLearning developer to design experiences that meet both content and reporting needs.
Problem solving and Troubleshooting – Understanding what causes certain problems generally helps avoid them coming up in the first place. However, due to the nature of eLearning development, issues and bugs may arise. A great eLearning developer should be able to identify where the problem is coming from, even if it isn’t immediately apparent.

Communication – Being able to discuss ideas, asking relevant questions and probing SMEs are important to a successful eLearning developer. Clear and efficient communication is key, especially when working with cross-functional teams and managing expectations with stakeholders.
Proficiency in Office – You need to be comfortable with working with tools such as PowerPoint and Word as the main development tool, Articulate Storyline, is very similar at its core to PowerPoint and these skills translate into Articulate Storyline development easily.
Articulate Storyline familiarity – You need to be able to develop an eLearning course in Articulate Storyline from Storyboard to SCORM wrapped deliverable without needing guidance from senior developers. Having a working knowledge of Storyline should enable a developer to meet IMD’s needs even if they are not immediately familiar with Tin Can and xAPI statements.

Agile Development Knowledge - Given the project-based nature of eLearning development, knowledge of Agile methodologies (e.g., Scrum or Kanban) may be a useful addition, especially if working with tight timelines.


Education:


A degree in Multimedia Design – Theoretical design thinking will always enable a designer to design better than their counterparts with just a practical understanding of design.
Certification in Instructional Design – The foundational understanding of Instructional Design enables the designer to approach UX/UI design with a learning focus.
Proficiency in Adobe – In a perfect world, a great eLearning developer is Adobe Certified in the full suite, but at the very least, a great eLearning developer has Proficiency in Adobe Creative Cloud, particularly in tools like Photoshop, Illustrator. more
