Up Next, IPT 511 – Synchronous E-Learning in the Workplace

It’s been many months since I have updated this blog that covers my journey to complete the requirements for the IPT WELPS Certificate.

Due to course scheduling, I wasn’t able to register for a course during the Fall ‘09 semester because, well… there wasn’t one scheduled that I wanted to take.  In fact, had I went with my original plan of selected courses, I wouldn’t have been able to take the courses I wanted to until the start of the upcoming Fall ‘10 semester or following Spring ‘11 semester (I think).  Either way, it would have had to sit out for quite a while in order to take the courses I wanted to and receive my certificate in a timely manner.

Unfortunately, I had to compromise somewhat.  Please don’t misconstrue me.  Every course that is part of the WELPS Certificate are worth their weight in gold.  However, I have a feeling that IPT 511 – Synchronous E-Learning in the Workplace, where GoToMeeting will be the preferred application for the course, will be a cake walk.

For the last two years in my professional career, practically all of the training I delivered was synchronous over virtual classrooms.  If the course description is correct…

Students will examine principles and techniques for developing and implementing synchronous web-based learning strategies to improve performance in the workplace.

… this is going to easy.

Don’t get me wrong. I’m sure I’ll learn something new. I always seem to in these courses which has made the experience thus far very worthwhile.
