Methodology

This workshop adopts a practical and interactive approach among its participants. It utilizes educational tools that assist participants in efficiently and effectively navigating different learning and development environments. The course is based on four main pillars: conceptual education (provided by the consultant), sharing experiences (group discussions and practical application sessions), scenario analysis, and case studies.

Course Objectives

By the end of the course, participants will be able to:

1. Identify the elements of the learner-centered educational environment and explain the principles of instructional design.
2. Analyze performance gaps, determine appropriate learning objectives for learners, and develop a plan for managing the learning project.
3. Formulate a vision for learning and strive to achieve it step by step through a learning journey that includes task and activity inventories, testing and evaluation strategies, and tools for measuring the return on learning investment.
4. Design suitable instructional content, select educational activities and learning media, and design educational materials for both trainers and learners.
5. Guide the implementation process of the instructional program by preparing learners and trainers and using effective planning and communication tools.
6. Acquire knowledge of learning assessment tools and strategies, and develop a plan for assessment that allows for future analysis and improvement.

Target Audience

This training course targets trainers, instructional designers, training and development managers, talent management professionals, human resources management specialists, and all professionals seeking to master instructional design skills.
