Overview of Customization Services. In connection with Customer’s subscription to the SaaS Services, if included within the scope of the Services as set forth on Customer’s Order Form, Hone will provide services described in this  Section 1 to customize the Content of the Classes within the Services (“Basic Customization Services”). This customized Content is referred to as “Basic Customized Content.” Hone will designate a Hone team member to provide Customer Content (a “Learning Strategist”), provided that Customer reasonably cooperates with the Learning Strategist and other Hone team members.  

Timing for Basic Customization Services. Basic Customization Services are available only if the related Order Form is signed by both parties at least six (6) weeks before Customer’s first live Class via the Services. Customer must attend a Basic Customization Services session (a live meeting with a Hone Learning Strategist to discuss customizations) at least 3 weeks prior to the first Class using Basic Customized Content.

Scope of Basic Customization Services. Basic Customization Services include the following services:

ServiceDescription/Example
Ensure the scenarios, job titles, and names depicted in the interactive case studies and exercises resonate with the learners For example: changing “product manager” to “account manager” or “manager”
Modify commitments to ensure alignment with goals, values, and challengesMany Classes come with a prescribed commitment option. LS can help create a new commitment in partnership with the admin or remove suggested commitments.
Integrate organization’s initiatives, values, and related talking points so that the facilitator expresses what is crucial to the customer

This includes minor changes to facilitator notes such as adding 3-5 sentences per Class (so as not to increase course timing). 

For example: alluding to “performance management” cycle, highlighting corporate values or initiatives, or over-emphasizing certain areas of importance.

Images pertaining to case studies / scenariosInclude changing 1-2 images per Class to better reflect a specific work environment. For example, if the image is too casual or too corporate for the organizational culture, or if a certain ethnicity should be more represented given the audience of the Class.
Associated updates to learner guide for the Class, if applicable
