Catalog description

Participants are introduced to systems approach, or ISD. Classwork applies scientific method to training development to be sure programs are comprehensive in scope, yet lean in execution. Each student will select a specific training need and then develop a systematic training design through careful front end analysis of training needs, tasks performed and learner population. Media and techniques appropriate to a given setting are chosen. Participants complete all aspects of program design, including analysis described, construction of training objectives, evaluation measures and budgets. At course completion, each student will have a blueprint for training for implementation in EDTR 659.
