| Tech | Learning and Development Technology Awards | Best Advance in Gaming or Simulation Technology | Relias | A Day in the Life: An IDD Perspective | Gold | 2022 | A Day in the Life: An IDD Perspective is a video-based eLearning simulation filmed from a first-person perspective of Jessica, someone with an intellectual and developmental disability (IDD). The learner experiences the challenges faced by Jessica each day. There are play-through interactions with Jessica's Direct Support Professionals (DSPs) and co-worker. There are also reflection opportunities, where specific elements of the prior scene are called out. The learner can consider how Jessica's experiences may differ from their own, and how they might improve their approaches when working with clients with IDD. This course is based on the success of a prior, fully immersive, virtual reality (VR) solution. While immersion increased learning effectiveness, VR accessibility remains limited. To overcome this, Relias filmed the simulation with a GoPro camera to retain the immersion element. This allowed the company to deploy the training to the online audience without the need for additional VR equipment. |

| Tech | Learning and Development Technology Awards | Best Advance in Content Management Technology (CMT) | F. Hoffmann-La Roche AG and DelphianLogic | Roche_Best Advance in Content Management Technology_LCLM | Gold | 2022 | The Roche Molecular Diagnostics (RMD) team caters to over 170,000 employees. The team manages thousands of hours of learning content. Roche's learning ecosystem ensures a smooth learning delivery and learner experience of this content. However, it does not address the team's mounting challenge of storing and governing their ever-increasing content assets smoothly. Historically, the team had stored their content assets across 600+ storage locations. While these locations addressed content storage needs, they greatly hindered the team's ability to efficiently manage content. They were opaque and disparate, with no visibility of what content needs to be governed and when. They also posed access challenges. This impacted the team's efficiency and ROI. So, the business commissioned DelphianLogic to design a centralised solution that will not just provide greater visibility and control but will also be scalable and extensible to sustain its effectiveness over several years. The result — the LCLM. |
