This is Bob, he’s your chief engineer and he's just
your latest product, the Gizmo 5000. Your company
stands to make a lot of money out of the 5000, but first you have some training to do: each group needs to learn something different, but they don't need to learn everything that Bob knows.
How do you create training that gets people the
and information at the right time so they can do their jobs better ?
By using instructional design. Here's how it works the instructional designer works with your
collecting the information each group needs to know, translating it into words that
can understand, and using it to create training that
what learners need to know. For each program, the instructional designer selects a
that
your situation. Training materials are designed to be clear and at the
for your
. Interactive elements are used to
and to help them remember what they learned. And testing is created to
and make sure learners got it right.
The instructional designer works with you to
roll out your training program and
it is working correctly.
Bottom-line, instructional design helps you get your product to market
, your people
up to speed more effectively, and frees Bob to get working on the next big thing.
