VA outsourcing for creation of children's educational content

[RossLeRenard]

Ok, I am pretty pumped. I'm a long time stalker on here, but only started to post today.

I think I've found my Muse, which is going to be centered around kids education, but I'm wondering how best to go about creating lessons.

I've looked at the numbers and they look good. There's also a BIG gap in the market, with a very respectable amount of traffic for the relevant search terms.

I am a trained kids supervisor and camp councilor, but when it comes to developing/creating lessons for kids, I am not trained or qualified. I know exactly what the content is going to cover and what areas it is going to focus on, but with regards to how to effectively put lessons together, I am sure someone who is qualified/experienced at this would be needed to create the high quality product that will allow me to charge the premium for product would deserve.

I think this is the kind of thing that could be outsourced, but I have no idea about where to start looking.

Does anyone know any agencies that this sort of work would or could apply to?

If you're still considering creating the course yourself, www.udutu.com has some pretty great tools for course authoring for people who have zero technical experience. If you have your content already then you can probably check them out. They give you the option to publish your course to a web server or as a zip file that can be placed on cd/dvd. I have never used their platform but I'm considering it for a project I'm currently working on and there are some pretty good reviews online...oh and its free :-)

Thanks Nashira. After a quick poke around, this seems like a site that will be beneficial for me.

I am not sure how effective it will be at creating a course for kids, but I will report back, as I think that the area of child education is one that many Muses will focus upon.

It will most certainly be beneficial for other outlets I currently have, including creating online courses for prospective clients of the company I currently work for.

Are there any other alternatives to this kind of site? Options are always great to evaluate :cool:

Anyone else's input would be most appreciated.
