SME Bottlenecks
Your subject-matter experts know the content. They don't have the time to turn it into clean, teachable courses. We work with your SMEs to structure their knowledge without consuming their calendar.
Your course catalog, delivered. On time. On budget. On standard.
When you have 20, 50, or 300 courses to build, convert, or standardize and a deadline that will not move, you need a delivery system. We deliver course catalogs in steady batches with verified quality, so you can launch on schedule.
Best fit: 20+ courses hard deadline small team
Sound Familiar?
Course catalogs break in predictable ways
These problems cost you time, trust, and launch dates.
Inconsistent Courses
Different authors, different templates, different standards. Your learners get a different experience every time they open a course. We apply consistent templates and standards across your entire catalog.
Launch-Week Chaos
Broken links, missing files, outdated dates, platform issues. Your team is spending launch week fixing problems instead of supporting learners.
Our Process
The Course Factory: a production system for course catalogs
We inventory what you have, lock standards, deliver in batches, and verify every wave. You see progress every week and can sign off with confidence.
01
Inventory + Complexity Scoring
We catalog what you actually have, what's missing, and what needs the most attention, so scope and pricing are based on your real catalog, not estimates.
- Inventory every course and asset
- Tag complexity (Light / Standard / Heavy)
- Surface integrations, risks, and owners
02
Lock Standards (Templates + Rules)
When every course is built differently, quality drifts. We lock templates and rules so production is consistent across your entire catalog.
- Choose 1-2 templates
- Define navigation + naming rules
- Set written acceptance criteria + review rules
03
Pilot: Prove the Process
We prove the process on a small batch first, typically 3-5 courses, before scaling. You see the quality, the timeline, and the verification artifacts before committing to the full run.
- Pilot 3-5 courses
- Verify quality and timeline on a real batch
- Tune automation rules before scale
04
Deliver in Batches + Verify Each One
Every batch comes with verification. You don't just get "done." You get evidence, documented exceptions, and a clean handoff.
- Deliver in batches of 25-50 courses
- Verify against a QA checklist
- Provide an evidence pack + exception log per batch
Why This Works
Speed, quality, and cost-control without the usual trade-off.
Most large course projects force you to sacrifice one of these. Our process protects all three by using templates, automation, and batch delivery instead of brute-force staffing.
Speed
You see progress every week, not at the end. We deliver in batches with a weekly review cadence.
- Pilot first, then scale
- Batches of 25-50 courses
Quality
Every batch comes with a verification checklist, exception log, and evidence you can audit and sign off on.
- Verification checklist per batch
- Documented exceptions with owners
Cost-control
Template-driven automation replaces manual, one-at-a-time work. Consistent standards mean less rework and fewer surprises.
- Standards enforced at scale
- Less rework, fewer surprises
What We Do
Three ways to engage
All built on the same Course Factory system. The right one depends on where you are and how fast you need to move.
Blueprint Sprint (2 weeks)
Inventory + complexity scoring + pilot build or conversion + a locked plan. Low risk. High clarity.
- Inventory courses + assets (what exists, what's missing)
- Complexity scoring + delivery plan (Light / Standard / Heavy)
- Pilot 3-5 courses to prove the process works
- Fixed scope, written acceptance criteria, and a go/no-go decision
Course Factory Sprint (4-8 weeks)
Build, convert, or standardize courses in batches. Templates + automation + verified quality so you launch on time.
- Batches of 25-50 courses with weekly check-ins
- Standards enforcement (templates, naming, navigation)
- QA Evidence Pack + exception log per batch
- Warranty window for defects within acceptance criteria
Course Ops Partner (retainer)
Monthly capacity to keep your catalog from drifting: rollovers, QA, standards governance, and continuous upgrades.
- Term rollover + due date alignment + quality checks
- Ongoing QA scans + prioritized backlog
- Standards governance (templates + change approvals)
- Monthly status report: what changed, what's at risk, what's next

Who You'll Work With
Braden Riggins
Founder, Tamitu Solutions LLC
I've spent 6+ years building and managing courses inside enterprise LMS environments — from Coursera and the American Red Cross to WGU and UMGC. I started Tamitu because too many organizations get stuck between "we need this catalog done" and "we don't have the team to do it right."
The Course Factory is how I solve that: a repeatable production system that delivers courses in verified batches, on time, with evidence you can audit. If you're evaluating whether we're the right fit, I'm the person you'll talk to on the call — and the person accountable for the work.

How We Prove It
Evidence you can audit
Every engagement produces auditable evidence, not just a deliverable and an invoice. Here's what accountability looks like in practice.
QA Evidence Pack
Most course delivery ends with an email that says "it's done." Every batch we deliver comes with a verification checklist, exception log, and evidence screenshots you can audit and sign off on.
See what's in the pack →Fixed Scope and Written Acceptance Criteria
Every project has written acceptance criteria before work begins. Every change is logged. You always know what you're buying and what "finished" means.
Warranty Window
Defects within acceptance criteria are fixed at no extra cost during the warranty period after each batch is accepted. The warranty window and scope are defined in the SOW before work begins.
Client engagement
Abaci Health: Certification Preparation Courses
Abaci Health needed certification preparation courses for dental professionals but did not have the internal instructional design capacity to turn clinical expertise into structured e-learning. We worked with their subject matter experts to design and build engaging, standards-aligned courses for learner preparation.
Professional references available on request from clients in healthcare education and higher ed. Ask during the fit call or email [email protected].
Working with Tamitu Consulting was a pleasure! Their creativity, dedication, and expertise truly transformed our learning materials. From start to finish, they were attentive to our needs and crafted engaging content. I highly recommend Tamitu Consulting for anyone seeking a partner who not only delivers great results but also makes the process enjoyable and collaborative.

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Direct answers to the questions that matter before you decide to call.
Who is this a fit for?
Any organization with 20+ courses, a hard deadline, and a small internal team. If your catalog is inconsistent, stalled behind subject-matter-expert bottlenecks, or overdue for standardization, the Course Factory is a fit.
How fast can you deliver?
Blueprint Sprint is 2 weeks. Factory Sprints typically run 4-8 weeks depending on course count and complexity. We deliver in batches so you see progress every week.
What does this cost?
Blueprint Sprints typically start at $9.5K. Factory Sprints are scoped based on course count and complexity. You get fixed pricing, written acceptance criteria, and no surprises.
What makes you different from other consultants?
We deliver finished courses, not strategy decks, and we make the work auditable: verification checklists, exception logs, and QA evidence packs per batch. Professional references available from clients in healthcare education and higher ed.
What do we actually get delivered?
You get production-ready courses inside your LMS (built, converted, and standardized), plus the artifacts that make it auditable: templates and standards, a QA checklist, an exception log, and a QA Evidence Pack per batch. If the scope includes job aids, assessments, or supporting docs, those are delivered too, always with acceptance criteria.
We've tried improving our training before. Why would this be different?
Because we don't run a big-bang project. We lock standards, prove the process on a pilot batch, then deliver in steady waves with written acceptance criteria and QA evidence. You see progress weekly, exceptions are logged with owners, and changes go through change control, so the work doesn't collapse under SME bandwidth constraints.
What LMS platforms have you worked in?
We have direct experience building and managing courses in Canvas, Blackboard, and Moodle, as well as custom LMS environments. If your platform isn't listed, ask during the fit call and we'll give you an honest answer about our depth.
How do you handle FERPA and student data?
Our work is limited to course content and structure — not student records, grades, or enrollment data. We do not access FERPA-protected information in the normal course of an engagement. If a project scope requires access to any data that could fall under FERPA, we document it explicitly in the SOW and limit it to the minimum necessary. We can operate under your institution's FERPA-designated vendor framework. See our security and data handling page for details.
Do you use AI in your process?
Yes, selectively. We use AI-assisted tools to accelerate content drafting, quality checks, and repetitive LMS operations. Every deliverable is reviewed and approved by a senior instructional designer before it reaches your LMS. AI supports our process — it doesn't replace human judgment on instructional quality or accuracy. If your institution has an AI policy, we'll work within those boundaries.
What does your procurement process look like?
We can work with your paper or ours. NDA, DPA, security questionnaire responses, W-9, and certificate of insurance are all available. We operate as Tamitu Solutions LLC (Iowa) and can provide entity documentation for vendor onboarding. Our security and data handling practices are documented and ready for review.
