ADDIE: A Guide for Training and Development Professionals

This course is about mastering an important training and development framework: the ADDIE Model (Analyze, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation). Tested by time and millions of students, mastering this simple system will make you a better trainer.

You will learn about all aspects of corporate training, including the front-end training needs analysis, and identifying effective strategies for course design and development. And, you will also study various ways to deliver training and to accurately evaluate the impact that training programs have on a company's bottom line.

You will follow this very simple course structure to learn:

• Training plans
• Training needs analysis
• Curriculum development
• Training methods
• Training evaluation

On completion, you will be able to respond to problems that may arise in the absence of top-level management support for training, build an effective training plan, and perform training needs analysis.

You will be able to use the ADDIE model, understand the characteristics of the adult learner and accommodate differences when delivering training. And, you will also be able to recognize when to use traditional methods of delivering training and when to use technology-based, blended learning, or on-the-job methods of training.

And this is not all. You will practice Kirkpatrick's four levels of evaluation and determine whether a training effort was a good return on investment.

The course will take 2 hours to finish, maybe more if you also choose the optional project, and includes video lectures, practical examples, exercises and quizzes.

So, if you are looking to become a trainer, or a better trainer this course is for you. And it's easy to enroll. Just press the "Take This Course" button and you are in. Or, if you are not yet sure try the preview option, and then decide.
