Case Study: How Texas Manufacturing Housing Division Built a Cost-Effective Training Program with Adobe Learning Manager

Manufactured homes are popular in Texas, which has one of the largest populations of these affordable, convenient homes in the U.S. With so many people living in manufactured homes, the state is committed to ensuring their safety, a task that falls to the Manufactured Housing Division, an independent division of the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs.

One of the Department’s core responsibilities is licensing salespeople, manufacturers, installers, retailers, and brokers in the industry. Giving learners a deep foundation in the laws, regulations, and codes to ensure that licensees offer HUD-code compliant homes typically required all-day in-person trainings held at the University of Texas at Austin, with anywhere between 80 to 300 trainees. Each quarter, trainees incurred the costs of flights, rental cars, and hotels as they travelled to Austin for courses.
