Training and Development




 "Finally, a certification program that offers the Training and

Development practitioner credentials to validate professionalism."

Competency-Based Training:

The Department coordinates the Training and Development Certification Program. This program is an intensive hands-on, competency-based program for Training and Development practitioners who are already experienced but desire to polish their skills or for individuals new to the field of training and development.

Unlike the previous programs, the Training and Development Professional Certification Program will be based on the ADDIE (Analyze, Design, Develop, Implementation and Evaluation) model that consists of five systematic steps used to create instructional products for a variety of settings. Each phase represents a series of tasks that ensure development efforts stay on target. This model represents a complete instructional design workflow. It has built-in planning activities, quality assurance checkpoints, and feedback cycles. The Training and Development Professional Certification Program will present the ADDIE model through a real-world corporate training perspective.
