Training Industry is the most trusted source of information on the business of learning. Our Top Custom Content Development List is based on thorough analysis of the capabilities, experience and expertise of custom content development providers.

Custom content development primarily includes custom instructional course design and development for external use. It encapsulates the creation of learning programs from initial design to finished product. Custom content development can include learning strategies such as gamification – the process of applying gaming designs and concepts to corporate learning scenarios in order to make them more engaging and entertaining for the learner.

These companies have the ability to develop multiple types of learning content for corporate clients, as well as provide subject matter expertise, instructional design, learning strategy or instructor sourcing as part of the content development process.

We continuously monitor the training marketplace looking for the best providers of custom content development that offer a breadth of capabilities and services. This annual list is designed to help buy-side organizations in their search for the right training partners.

Selection of this year’s Top Custom Content Development Companies List was based on the following criteria:

  • Capability of developing multiple types of content.
  • Depth and breadth of subject matter created.
  • Industry visibility, innovation and impact.
  • Strength of clients and geographic reach.
  • Company size and growth potential.
