How can I use my talents to make a difference?

As a learning and development practitioner, if you have ever asked yourself this, this is the one workshop you should attend this year. By attending, you will make a difference.

Over the workshop series, you and a team of like minded talented professionals will create an elearning piece for a group of not for profits who will access to this piece at no charge.

Using Michael Allen’s Success Approximation Model as outlined in his book 'Leaving ADDIE for SAM', you will learn by doing.

If you are wanted to engage stakeholders early and often and hold the following roles you should consider attending:

• Instructional designers who want to learn the new Agile methodology

• Change Managers who need to get a deeper understanding of how large training rollouts should (but doesn’t often) happen

Overview:

Over the 3 days we will be participating in a ‘Savvy Start’, a unique event that can be replicated in your organisation which combines brainstorming, prototyping, revising and story telling. All agile instructional design starts with a Savvy Start.
