\u00a0<\/span>What does an Instructional Designer do?<\/p>\n

An instructional designer\u2019s job is to develop curriculum. This is the easiest way to describe what we do.\u00a0 Now the longer version is that we:<\/p>\n

–\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Determine if there is a problem or respond to an RFP<\/p>\n

–\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 If there is a training problem, then we solve it. If another problem, that group solves it (ie IT, Communication, etc), we just help find the problem and only solve it ourselves when training is the solution.<\/p>\n

–\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Do an instructional analysis and needs assessment \u2013 We determine what the scope of the training is and recommend a solution (i.e., we should develop online instruction and it will cost this much and take this long)<\/p>\n

–\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Design the instruction \u2013 we develop objectives, work with SMEs, and figure out what models and theories we should use to create this instruction in the best possible manner<\/p>\n

–\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Develop the instruction \u2013 instructional designers can do this but more often its done by computer programmers. We however will develop the storyboards and work with the developers\u00a0 to do this. Sometime we do develop though using simpler and more limited software such as Articulate, Captivate, and PPT.<\/p>\n

–\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Implement the instruction \u2013 We help with the rollout and work with IT to deliever instruction. We might train trainers how to deliver the instruction or we might even deliver the instruction ourselves<\/p>\n

–\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Evaluation \u2013 We conduct an evaluation to determine if the training was successful, met company goals, if ROI was met, etc.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
