Designing Learning Certificate

Course Description

The ASTD 2004 Competency Study: Mapping the Future identified designing learning as a critical area of expertise for the workplace learning and performance professional. To meet industry demand, ASTD is pleased to announce the launch of the ASTD Designing Learning Certificate Program.

Developed for participants new to instructional design, this is the complete workshop for designing outcome-based training, giving participants a competitive advantage when creating programs. The workshop follows a human performance improvement approach to designing learning and includes practice in performance analysis, needs assessment, job/task analysis, and course design using templates exclusive to ASTD. The content is based on the key actions and knowledge defined by the ASTD Competency Model for designing learning.  Participants leave knowing how to design a complete program including participant guides, instructor guides, and other necessary materials that directly correlate to the organization's business goals. In addition, participants will apply what they learn during the workshop concluding with designing a training based on case study information presented throughout the workshop. Designed by Ruth Clark and Ann Kwinn of CLARK Training and Consulting, it provides you with all the tools necessary to develop powerful, bottom-line focused training.

Upon successful completion of this program, you will earn 2.0 CEUs.  Learn More.

ASTD Certificate Programs are learning events and a certificate is awarded to participants upon successful completion of the program. No test is given and participants are not certified. Certification is a testing event that confirms that skills, knowledge, or competencies have been acquired.
