L & d fundamentals | fundamentals Programs
The three Fundamentals Programs are the perfect starting point for L&D professionals who wish to embrace truly effective approaches to blended learning. The series of programs span from designing an overall continuous learning architecture, through developing high impact live virtual training to then delivering immersive and engaging live training experiences over the web. Each program is itself an example of blended learning.
Each program comprises best practices, how to segments, collaboration, interactive tools, and approaches.
Alternative Formats
The programs can be delivered around a two-day on-site workshop, five live virtual workshops, or can be individually paced through a series of asynchronous modules. No matter which format is selected, the programs all include ongoing support and exposure to all of the tools and processes that have made the 3GS approach the most effective way to architect, design and deliver continuous and blended learning.
