Are your training programs hitting the mark?


Well-designed training is more than just a learning event—it’s a strategic tool that drives business success and enhances the learner experience. In this workshop, participants will explore a full-cycle approach to training design that ensures learning programs are engaging, effective, and aligned with business objectives. Using AGILE methodologies, attendees will learn how to create adaptable learning solutions that evolve based on real-time feedback and measurable impact.


A properly designed training program can boost employee engagement, improve performance, and increase retention, ultimately leading to higher productivity, reduced turnover, and stronger business outcomes. This workshop will guide participants through a structured yet flexible design process, leveraging Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to refine content, aligning training with organizational goals, and implementing evaluation metrics to measure success.


WHY ATTEND?


By the end of this session, you’ll be able to:


  • Understand the business impact of well-designed training and how it enhances employee performance and engagement.
  • Apply AGILE principles to create dynamic and adaptable learning programs.
  • Leverage SMEs to ensure training content is accurate, relevant, and aligned with desired outcomes.
  • Develop evaluation metrics to measure training effectiveness and continuously improve learning experiences.
  • Ensure training programs align with organizational goals to drive meaningful results.
