🧠 The SME-to-Learning Quick Start Guide

Turn Expert Knowledge Into Engaging Training — Faster, With Less Rework

🚨 Why This Guide Exists

Creating learning content with subject matter experts (SMEs) is essential — but painfully slow.

Most UK L&D teams say 60–70% of their time goes into clarifying SME input, not designing impactful training.

This short guide offers a 3-step method you can use today to streamline SME collaboration — using plain language, simple AI prompts, and the built-in tools of your HR platform (like Employment Hero’s LMS).

✅ What You’ll Get (And Use Immediately)

You’ll walk away with:

1. A Ready-to-Use SME Interview Template

Start your next conversation with clarity. Our 7-question structure is built to:

• Uncover hidden assumptions

• Capture key decision points

• Surface context that learners need (not just information)

2. 3 Plug-and-Play AI Prompts

Use these with ChatGPT (or any AI assistant) to:

• Turn long SME notes into step-by-step learning outcomes

• Identify missing context or jargon

• Draft practice scenarios based on real decisions

3. A “Compliance Link” Checklist

Designed for UK teams — this helps you:

🛠 Real Use Case: 1 Hour Saved, Every Time

“Using this interview guide with our in-house Health & Safety lead cut our content revisions in half. We used the AI prompt to draft training in Employment Hero’s LMS — the SME just approved it. That used to take 3 meetings.”

⚡️ Why It Matters Now

💥 6.4 hours/week are lost to manual admin per HR staff member in UK mid-sized orgs

💥 43% of L&D teams say they’re behind on mandatory content creation

💥 SMEs are increasingly time-poor — clarity is a competitive advantage

When you fix the SME handoff, everything else moves faster.
