Introduction

In an increasingly digital world, both organizations and professionals are preferring e-learning to build their capacities. Adapting to the new learning and teaching environment requires a change of mindset in adopting the best practices in designing and running online training programmes.

Instructional design is the practice of developing content, materials, and other solutions to support the acquisition of new knowledge or skills using digital technologies.

Through this programme, you will gain the expertise to become an industry leader in designing and providing an enhanced learning experience for learners and organizations in the current digital age.

Programme Objective

The programme equips organizations and individuals with practical skills, tools, and techniques to design their own successful online training programmes.

The programme is ideal for organizations and professionals who work directly or indirectly to support and improve learning and development.

They include:

  • Human Resource Department managers, officers, and trainers
  • Learning & Development managers, officers, and trainers
  • Educational institutions

  • Utilize instructional design models to develop online learning experiences to meet the needs of their institution
  • Design processes for implementing and evaluating eLearning courses

Programme Structure & Delivery

The course is structured to be action-oriented. Action learning is an experiential learning process where individuals from the start, identify and evaluate their needs and create practical, implementable solutions. As such, the course will follow the action research format: Planning, Designing, Acting, Observing and Reflecting. Participants will therefore gain practical skills to apply in their organizations and roles.

The duration is 2 weeks. It will include both practical and theoretical sessions. The first part of the module will be theoretical sessions, followed by practical immersion sessions, using their own organizations as a case study.

The mode of delivery is online.
