A Learning Architect will help ensure you create a clear vision, with a clearly defined roadmap, bringing together the learning tools, learning platforms, and learning content into a form that is easy to use, scales and delivers a great learner experience.
When it comes to creating training courses most clients tend to believe it is either one or the other, and if they do choose both they assume two independent development streams and budgets. But if we consider the amount of cost and effort to create both instructor-led courses and e-learning ones, the best option for maximizing the training budget is to go for both these possibilities.
When designing training for new software users, a question that will inevitably arise is: Should you go for simulations or for the training environment? The knowledge achieved by a learner who can test the software will always trump that of a simulation training experience, but simulations provide a highly cost-effective means to create scalable, repeatable training.
The Reusable Learning Object Methodology is a great way to design blended learning efficiently and effectively. This methodology has plenty of advantages, among which are a shorter development time, a greater control over module versions, and an easier way to adapt courses for both online and face-to-face instruction.
Context-sensitive learning means offering the right knowledge to the right person just when they need it. There are three factors involved in designing and rolling out a context-sensitive learning solution: effective learning content, management of the content, and measurement of it.
Which is generally more successful in achieving learning outcomes? Instructor-led training or online learning? What if we add another dimension to this, and blend instructor-led training with online learning? If you chose this last option, your colleagues must be happy to be in the same organization as you.
Graham Hall, a professional Learning Specialist, guest blogs today, giving some practical insights on the three components to successful learning in the corporate space. Graham has a ton of L&D experience under his belt, having helped numerous large and small businesses to implement successful training solutions over the years.
