Workshop objectives

For instructional designers who are expected to convert traditional, instructor-led training programs to virtual classroom courses.

This workshop is also aimed at training managers who want to gain a solid understanding of the design considerations for converting traditional courses to the virtual classroom.

  • Determine constraints that directly impact the conversion.
  • Determine timing parameters.
  • Create a virtual classroom schedule that meets the timing parameters.
  • Conduct a preliminary review of the instructor-led training content.
  • Determine how content will be practiced in the virtual classroom.
  • Choose engaging, interactive methods and tools for the virtual classroom.
  • Design the virtual classroom methods.
  • Structure the virtual classroom workshop.
  • Create user-friendly course materials.

Note: This workshop is delivered using the Adobe Connect platform, however the content has been designed to apply to a wide variety of virtual classroom platforms.
