A Perspective on Competencies by Hale Associates.

Experiential learning presents a highly unique growth opportunity for participants, as well as a tool that planners can use to achieve a specific outcome. Differentiated from more traditional team-building, experiential learning uses a blended approach to learning, integrating activities, exercises, adventure elements, quiet time and ongoing post-event coaching to create powerful programs of leadership development, strategic planning, mentoring and coaching, communication, feedback and observation as well as enhancement of behavior styles.

Many employers prefer Instructional Designers (IDs) with experience in their business sector.

This paper discusses the practice analysis process, including survey results that generated nine primary skill set domains for IDs.
