Designing Training Courses That Drive Real Results

Twenty-plus years in training and development isn't just a number—it's a testament to a profound commitment to learning, growth, and transformation. My journey through the world of training has been more than a career; it's been a calling.

I've discovered that true learning isn't about transferring information—it's about enabling change, empowering individuals, and creating meaningful impact.

The Heart of Effective Training Design

When clients approach me to help design their training courses, I'm not just creating another educational product. I'm crafting a strategic pathway to knowledge, performance, and action. My approach is rooted in three critical questions that form the foundation of every successful learning experience:

1. What Do You Want the Learner to KNOW?

Knowledge is the starting point. But it's not about overwhelming learners with information—it's about providing clear, relevant, and actionable insights that form the basis of meaningful change. We'll work together to distill the essential knowledge that will serve as the cornerstone of your course.

2. What Do You Want the Learner to DO Differently?

Knowledge without application is just trivia. The real magic happens when learning translates into changed behavior. I focus on designing courses that don't just inform but transform—creating clear, practical pathways for learners to apply what they've learned in real-world contexts.

3. What ACTION Do You Want the Learner to Take?

Every great training course has a purpose beyond learning. Whether it's implementing a new strategy, changing a work process, or developing a personal skill, we'll define the specific actions that demonstrate the course's success.

Beyond Design: Creating Meaningful Learning Experiences

My approach goes beyond visual aesthetics (though those are important too). We create courses that:

• Engage learners intellectually and emotionally

• Provide clear, measurable learning outcomes

• Inspire immediate and sustained action

• Reflect the unique goals and context of your organization

Why Experience Matters

Twenty years in training and development has taught me that there's no one-size-fits-all solution. Each course is a unique journey, carefully crafted to meet specific learning objectives. My extensive background allows me to:

• Anticipate potential learning barriers

• Design intuitive and compelling learning experiences

• Blend pedagogical best practices with innovative approaches

• Understand the nuanced ways adults learn and grow
