Synopsis

You have a bewildering array of choices when it comes to designing and delivering effective training programs. And these options are even more daunting when you consider the ever-increasing pace of change, the availability of many new teaching technologies, and the realities of working in a diverse global economy. With so many decisions to make, designing an effective learning experience that meets individual and organizational needs can be difficult.

In Tailored Learning: Design the Blend That Fits, learn about the pros and cons of various training options in the context of a detailed case study that follows a design team (you and the authors) through the development of a blended learning solution for ABC Company. From examining the organization's business goals and training needs, through considering individual objectives and managerial considerations, this real-life example walks you through the process of selecting an ideal combination of training options for a specific scenario.
