A Series of 3 Online Sessions 

There are no remaining course dates for 2024. Join our 'Stay Informed' list and we'll let you know when 2025 dates are available.

Register Early! Course size is limited.

Certificate Overview

Does your training fail to stick despite your strongest efforts? Are increasing workloads and packed schedules imposing barriers to providing on-the-go learning needed for today’s hybrid workforce? If your retraining and upskilling are at a critical stage, you’re not alone, and the solution may be as close as the nearest mobile phone or laptop. In this certificate, we’ll explore how to deliver support and reinforcement programs produced in manageable bites, giving your learners a chance to reflect and apply lessons without disruption to workflow. We’ll dive into spaced learning, which involves revisiting information at set intervals to deepen retention and application; and drip feeding, which delivers learning in timely, manageable segments which enables learners to absorb and apply knowledge without interrupting their schedules. We will also explore how to effectively use four drip delivery platforms - blogs, chatbots, Teams/Slack, and email - not just for content delivery but to create engaging and interactive learning experiences. These tools enable tailored content scheduling, interactive discussions, and community learning, aligning with the learner's pace.

This is a hands-on, project-based course. Bring a potential use-case to use as a course project. We will make active use of case studies, collaboration tools, and peer reviews to address your real-world problems and explore tools and methods to help your learning stick. You will leave with new content and tool ideas to design, prototype, and build drip content that has real impact and adds business value.

Bonus Items:

• You will receive a workbook to help you plan your conversational learning process and determine your learning reinforcement content map.
• A template you can use in your daily work to make designing learning reinforcement easier and ensure sticky success!
• A breakdown of different mobile and other learning tools that can assist you in mapping the right learning to the right tools.
• And, you'll participate in a “share-case” with peers to show off your finished project.

Prerequisites:  Working knowledge of instructional design methods, and experience in course creation would be helpful, bring a potential use-case to use as a course project.

Technical Needs: You must have the ability to access Zoom. You may wish to use a personal computer for this course if your organization has strict third-party regulations. (i.e. doesn't allow for Google docs, access to Slack, or other collaborative tools) if you wish to fully participate in the course. 

Who Should Attend:
Instructional designers, Training Managers  and L&D professionals who struggle with making learning stick.

Course Objectives 

In this certificate, you will learn to:   

• Strategically Assess Your Training Needs: dive deep into the planning phase to strategically assess whether your training challenge is a perfect candidate for a spaced learning solution.
• Elevate Your Curriculum with Storytelling: Transform your current curriculum by integrating the power of storytelling and conversational-spaced learning.
• Design Human-Centric Learning Outcomes: Focus on crafting human-centric learning outcomes that drive motivation and engagement to avoid content overload and cognitive strain.
• Create a Spaced Learning Blueprint: This blueprint will not only guide your current efforts but also serve as a versatile template for future learning initiatives.
• Explore and Analyze Reinforcement Platforms: Conduct an analysis of four distinct learning reinforcement platforms to enable you to integrate the most suitable platforms into your content designs.
• Select Optimal Delivery Tools: Investigate and select the most effective delivery tools to maximize the success of your learning initiatives.

Course Materials

You will receive a workbook to help you plan your conversational learning process and determine your learning reinforcement content map, a template you can use in your daily work to make designing learning reinforcement easier and ensure sticky success and a list of which will assist you in mapping the right learning to the correct tools.

Instructional Approach: This is a hands-on, project-based course. We will make active use of case studies, collaboration tools, and peer reviews to address your real-world problems and explore tools and methods to help your learning stick.

Session Assignments includes pre-work, "in-between session" reflections and research, creation of content map during sessions.

During this certificate, you will participate in the following three (3) sessions:    

Session 1: Using the provided workbook and templates we will:

• Explore the learning science behind space and dripped learning.
• Compare and contrast the commonly used dripped learning delivery systems including:
    a. Chatbots
    b. Email
    c. Text messaging
    d. Blogs
     e. Social Enterprise Networks i.e. Slack, Teams, Facebook for Work
• Develop your root-cause analysis skills to determine how dripped learning can help reach business goals.
• Use the targeted training model to determine the following:
  a. Determining the ideal target audience
  b. Determine the hyper-focus action outcomes
  c. Identify the performance gap.

• Dive into story-telling and game mechanics as it applies to developing conversational learning maps.
• Using the provided template, apply story telling concepts to conversational drip delivery to case study.
• Write targeted “human-centered” learning outcomes specifically to align with dripped content.
• Apply “content deconstruction” concepts to write targeted conversational content to prevent content bloat and cognitive overload to your personal business challenge.

Session 3:  You will put the final touches on your dripped learning content map and determine which delivery tools will give your efforts the best chance for success and:

• Review use-case examples of how to apply drip-feeds in your organization.
• Analyze the different use-cases between different drip delivery platforms.
• Plan your final content map according to your selected tool.
• Share-Case! Share your work and receive peer feedback.
  
  Using a given scenario, through exercises and your own personal use case, you will leave with new content and tool ideas to design, prototype and build drip content that has real impact and adds business value.
