Mastering Instructional Design How do you create a course design and then ensure that your design results in specific, planned performance changes? Instructional design that leads to predictable and measurable performance improvement and competency development can be as much a science as an art. This 3-day program teaches participants to create a comprehensive course design, including the development of a course design document.

 


Program Description

The classic ISD model is the best old friend a person performing instructional design tasks could ever have. Accelerated learning is the best new friend an instructional designer could ever have. This program brings the two friends together with a special invitation for them to make you a world class instructional designer. You'll have to hold on tight because it will be a very quick ride.
