Create Interactive Content That Engages with H5P Interactive eLearning Training.
If you’re looking to create interactive, engaging learning content that doesn’t just deliver information but invites participation, H5P might be your new favorite toolkit. Imagine empowering learners through course presentations, interactive videos, hotspots, games, and quizzes—all without writing a single line of code. That’s the promise of H5P interactive eLearning training, especially when delivered through the intuitive power of the Moodle™ software.
At Pukunui, we offer a fully hands-on H5P Fundamental Training designed for educators, corporate trainers, and instructional designers who want to build effective, modern digital learning environments. But here’s the tricky part: not all H5P trainings are created equal. If you’ve ever gotten stuck between plugin updates and half-baked documentation, you know what we’re talking about.
This one-day course clears the confusion and equips you with tactics and techniques to design HTML5-based learning content that moves the needle.
Why H5P Is an eLearning Must-Have
H5P is an open source solution that makes it incredibly easy to create and share rich, interactive content in the browser. Whether it’s a drag-and-drop quiz, timeline, or full-blown interactive video, it plugs seamlessly into Moodle™, letting you start small or build something more complex.
- No coding needed – Select a content type and start building.
- Engage learners using simulation, flashcards, dialogues, and real-time feedback.
- Personalize learning with toolsets like image hotspots, branching scenarios, and course presentations.
Still stuck building PDFs that go unread or static SCORM modules learners click through without really absorbing? That’s a sign it’s time to upgrade your learning content with H5P.

Top Benefits of Our H5P Course
Most people use five or six H5P tools. What they don’t realize is that there are over 40 content types, from branching scenarios to interactive timelines. Don’t worry, we won’t overwhelm you with information, but you will come away confident in the tools that matter most for digital course building. Here’s what else you’ll gain:
- Confidence to create interactive content quickly without over-relying on developers.
- Understanding the plugin system and how to make H5P play nice within your Moodle™ design workflow.
- Clarity on learning design—what content types suit which learner outcomes, and why.
- Practice using tools like hotspot overlays, course presentations, and timelines that spark actual engagement.
- Skills to interpret learner data woven into your content (quiz scores, completion rates, dialogue responses).
Best Practices for Interactive Learning Design
Creating sleek digital learning content is great—but creating interactive learning experiences that keep learners involved is next-level. We spend a session unpacking instructional design basics that many people skip, including:
- Layering media—how to combine audio, visual, and interactivity without overwhelming the learner.
- Cognitive load tips—why seven-click quizzes often work better than thirty-slide lectures.
- Learning content sequencing—which content type should go where in your course?
- Using feedback and quiz data to reinforce learning instead of just tracking it.
