Would you like to learn to design effective and efficient, learner-centred, training material? Would you like to practice teaching in a comfortable environment?
In this program, you will learn the fundamentals of training design and development and how these principles can be applied to instructing and facilitating courses, workshops and seminars. You will learn some of the traditional and modern techniques to design, develop, instruct and evaluate training. Through group interaction, you will also share your experiences and learn from each other. Emphasis in this program is on developing practical instructional skills using a learner-centred approach.
There are three parts to this course:

3. Workplace Project (200 hrs)
There are different options available to you to satisfy this requirement:
Alternative 1.
If you work in the industry that you have been studying; you may submit a reference from your employer, in an effort to satisfy this industry (ie. workplace project) requirement; on the basis of RPL (ie. recognition for prior learning), achieved through your current and past work experience.

Alternative 3.
Credits can be achieved by completing standard modules Workplace Project I, II and/or III

Studies prove, time and again, that college-educated workers earn more than those with only a high school qualification. College graduates often enjoy additional benefits, including greater job opportunities and promotions. Though the proof for greater earning potential exists, some might wonder whether the cost of the education warrants the overall expense in the long run.
College Graduate vs. Non-Graduate Earnings
The National Centre for Education Statistics (NCES) analyses employee earnings data biennially, according to education level. Findings indicate that workers with a qualification earn significantly more than those without. Since the mid-1980s, education has played a large part in potential wages, with bachelor's degree holders taking home an average of 66% more than those with only a high school diploma do. While college-educated workers' wages have increased over the past two decades, those with only a high school education have seen decreases in annual salaries in the same time period (nces.ed.gov).
