Are you and your organization prepared to train virtually?
Virtual classroom technology enables learning and development teams to reach all audiences, at any time of the day, with just a simple internet connection, but creating engaging programs for this type of technology is an immense challenge. It requires both technical knowledge and the ability to apply sound instructional design techniques so that the trainer and producer are enabled to deliver online learning events that are filled with interactive participants, not passive attendees.
This certificate is an immersive skill-building experience of engaging online training with examples, practice and coaching designed to empower instructional designers to create virtual instructor-led training experiences with confidence! You enter a complete live online training world, participate in discussions, practice learning online, explore your virtual classroom platform, create training materials ready for immediate use and discover how your organization can begin to make the necessary shifts which support a virtual learning culture. You will walk away with the skills needed to become a savvy online virtual designer!
