We will be running our next open Making Learning by Design workshop in Cape Town on 13, 14 & 15 August 2008.

This is an interactive and challenging workshop to help you improve the quality of learning in your organization by:

· Changing instruction manuals, technical content and training material into learning material

· Developing trainers and instructors as facilitators of learning

· Changing passive dependent people into active, responsible learners seeking out information

· Ensuring managers are effective coaches and facilitators of others’ learning

Workshop objectives:

After attending the workshop, participants will be able to:

· Apply the power of shifting from training and coaching, to learning

· Analyse learning needs in a job / task or piece of content

· Design effective learning material and learning events – with particular emphasis on material designed to help people develop understanding (using methods such as the “keys to understanding”, problem-solving, comparison with a model, insight through deduction, and experience)

· Use methods to help learners develop learning skills at the same time as learning the product/content.

Administrative details:

 

Workshop cost: R 5 600 excl VAT per person for three days plus one day follow up

Training does not necessarily result in learning; people do not have to be trained in order to learn.

This workshop is suitable for subject matter experts and dedicated trainers who need to design and/or deliver learning material.
