Meeting/Event Information

Three Sessions: September 20 and 27, and October 4 - 12:00-12:30 PM

ATD Greater Las Vegas is please to introduce a new opportunity for you. We will be opening our brown bags, logging in for 20-30 minutes Lunch and Learns throughout 2024. This series of 3 sessions, hosted by Amber Vanderburg, will focus on Improving your Instructional Design.

Upskilling your talent is critical within any team today. Training your team effectively impacts your competitive advantage, retention efforts, and team performance. Too often, instructional design can fall short resulting in disengaged, begrudged, theoretical, outdated training. In this session, you will learn practical action steps, strategies, and approaches that you can apply today to improve the effectiveness of your training. You’ll learn how to adjust your training to the virtual hybrid and in-person dynamic of teams, alter activities to be engaging and practical, and strategically build learning design in a proven 5 step process for a richer learning experience.

In this series, we’ll move beyond theory into hands-on experience designing a better program. We will share how to create an environment for better learning at the beginning of your training through purposeful warm-ups and specific questions to address in your preparations. Amber will share effective approaches to establish baseline knowledge and individual learning and growth opportunities, give insight into a series of progressions and build upon baseline knowledge into collaborative learning, and share approaches you can use to lead more powerful retrospectives/ debriefs in your sessions for more concrete takeaways and discussions within different team dynamics.

Lastly, you'll receive a framework to identify specific courses of action and accountability. Great training sessions don’t happen by accident but through strategic, intentional instructional design.

So, if you are ready to build a training program to transform the performance in your organization then let’s go!
