I think I'd go one step further than you, Bradley, and say that if kaisera's concerned about someone watching the video halfway and then leaving, that, in addition to the possibility that it may it be too long (as you suggested), it may also not be necessary. There's a long-standing debate about whether it's important, or even desirable, to force learners to finish an e-course. In my opinion, unless you're dealing with some kind of compliance situation that requires being able to legally certify that they put in a certain amount of time reviewing the content, a better approach is to create a well-designed test to validate whether the learner has mastered the necessary skills and/or knowledge. If they can pass the test, then who cares if they finished the course? Heck - if they can pass the test before going through the course, why make them go through it at all?I think most of us have a tendency sometimes to put too much focus on the training itself rather than the purpose of the training -- to meet the specified objectives. I also believe that if all of the objectives are critical to their job performance, then the only passing score would be 100%. I believe it's Robert Mager who gives a good example of a this when he says that if there are, say, five steps to brewing a cup of coffee (cleaning the coffee maker, putting the filter in the brew basket, putting the coffee in the filter, putting the water in the machine, and pressing the On button), 80% (i.e., getting one wrong) can't be a passing score, since failing to do any of the steps except the first one would not result in successfully brewing a cup of coffee!Okay, I'd say "don't get me started," but apparently it's already too late for that
