Today, organizations are dealing with a unique set of challenges while also having  even greater opportunities for innovation. At the same time, we now have at our disposal an “alphabet soup” of learning and business methodologies – ADDIE, HPT, BP, Six Sigma, LEAN, AGILE - and an expanding toolkit of formal, informal, social, virtual and mobile technologies and approaches. So, what does this mean for how we design, develop and implement efficient and effective learning solutions?
 
In this session you will learn how to:
 

• Identify the new and different organizational challenges – and opportunities!
• Describe six learning and development methodologies and how they impact learning design
• Identify the range of  learning technologies and approaches now available
• Define the 8 principles of new learning design
