Challenge

The department had extensive expertise in telemental health, but it existed as a large body of unstructured content held by a single subject matter expert (SME). Without an instructional designer to prioritize and organize the material, it could serve as reference content but not as training that providers could complete independently.

Solution

Behavior-focused Course Design

Through SME interviews and action mapping, Toptal organized the content around what providers needed to do differently during telemental health sessions, moving supporting knowledge outside the core learning path.

Interactive Learning Experience

Toptal storyboarded each module before building the course in Articulate Rise 360 and Storyline 360, incorporating scenario-based exercises where providers could make decisions and see the consequences.

Outcome

Scalable Clinical Training

The completed course transformed one clinical specialist’s expertise into structured, self-paced training that behavioral health providers could access consistently, without relying on live delivery.

Reusable Learning Framework

The department also received action maps, storyboards, and instructional design documentation that could support future course extensions and related training initiatives.
