December 2025 – Community Of Practice: Small Yet Mighty L&D Teams – DESIGN: Is our training tailored to our learners’ needs? 

September 16, 2024 by Trew Landis

December 4, 2025

9:00 AM – 10:30 AM – In-Person @ ModernWell: 2909 S. Wayzata Blvd. Minneapolis, MN 55405

This event is limited to 28 participants

Design is vital to an L&D strategy as it ensures training programs are engaging, effective, and customized to meet learners’ needs. A well-crafted design strategy enhances the learning experience and supports the achievement of organizational goals. And here is where creativity can really take off! Prototyping, scenario building, performance objectives – there’s a lot to consider for effective instructional design! Come to this hands-on session where three facilitators from our own community of practice will each workshop design exercises you can implement in your jobs: Map It framework, CCAF, and scenario writing!

This is the third and final installment of a three-part series occurring throughout 2025. You are welcome to attend any or all of the sessions as your schedule permits. These sessions will cover three essential aspects of L&D: Strategy, Measurement, and Design. We’ll explore how a Small Yet Mighty L&D team can effectively implement each.
