E-learning Localization
Extending your learning assets to limited English proficiency (LEP) speakers. Localizing training content for your international workforce. Making your product more accessible to your global clients. We provide solutions that perform with the highest degree of effectiveness across platforms, to make your learning and training programs accessible to everyone.
Voiceover and Subtitling
E-learning modules are most effective when voices, narration, and subtitles are offered in the learner’s native language. We work from your time-coded scripts to ensure the timing perfectly coincides with the video script and graphics, while adjusting for text expansion and contraction.
Eriksen produces theater-quality recordings and can accommodate single or multiple voices. We work with you to hand-pick voice talent, aligning voices that properly support the subject matter, tone, and style of your project. Our linguists, voice talent, engineers, and production team extend the reach of your learning content.
Multilingual Formatting and Animation Adaptation
Eriksen will ensure that content flows properly throughout your media, animations are culturally relevant, and that standards for capitalization, hyphenation, and punctuation are upheld. Our experts focus on delivering to the requirements of your style guide, while also taking text expansion and cultural nuance into consideration, to deliver content that resonates with the learner.
