The purpose of this qualitative inquiry was to explore how business firms design and deliver online training. The phenomenon under study and central research question asked how do business firms design and deliver online training. A sample of 10 professionals that included managers, trainers, and key personnel responsible for online training were interviewed to answer the central research question. Included personnel were managers, trainers, human resources personnel, or key individuals (a) responsible for designing or delivering online training programs for employees and (b) holding the same position for at least two years. Transcribed data from in-person interviews were analyzed using NVivo 12 qualitative analytical software. Initial findings from the study revealed the following five themes: (a) interactive software was considered an effective design for reinforcing learning in online training; (b) trainers attempted to design online trainings to be easy to use, such that frequent questions about course layout from trainees who were competent at using online platforms were an indication of design flaws; (c) trainers perceived online training as more convenient and accessible for employees than in-person training, although in-person training had the advantages of allowing more interaction and hands-on instruction; (d) trainers designed online training to promote course completion; and (e) the primary consideration in designing online trainings was to meet the goals of the client organization. This study is beneficial to scholars and business firms as they explore how to unpack knowledge about adult learning (andragogy) and other principles of online course design to benefit practitioners in their daily activities of course design. Future research can explore which theoretical insights underpin the course design process to provide information about the designers' knowledge of learning styles, andragogy, and principles of online course design.
