Instructional Design “instructional experiences which make the acquisition of knowledge and skill more efficient, effective, and appealing.” (Wikipedia) “You can design instruction; learning must be experienced.” – Anon A number of simple ideas blended with the latest in adult learning principles are the basis to our program design. A key to our difference is that we differentiate between process and skill. Our guiding principles:

• Take a good brief and be prepared to challenge assumptions.
• Understand the outcome you want and how you’ll measure it.
