Learning & Development Process
Optimum Development determines and addresses the specific learning needs of your organization.
NEEDS ASSESSMENT
We determine what you really need. Focus groups, interviews, observations, and surveys are necessary to determine the true needs of learners before development of programs can take place. We take the time to determine learning and developmental gaps using the tool that works best for your organization.
INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGN
We design instruction based on determined needs. We implement a systematic approach to designing instruction that begins with your desired results – the objectives. We design instruction that addresses differing learning styles and incorporates a variety of methodologies. For your virtual training needs, Optimum Development creates engaging programs for delivery via virtual platforms. We can transform instructor-led programs to interactive, participant-driven learning and development sessions for remote learners.
PROGRAM FACILITATION
We have presenters who possess strong facilitation skills. Whether it’s a workshop, seminar, or team building session, facilitators deliver content that engages the adult learner. We deliver many of our programs virtually, with the remote learner in mind, never losing sight of the interactivity requirements of our adult learners.
EVALUATION
We evaluate immediately following a program and later for long-term results. Optimum Development conducts evaluations to gather initial responses and reactions to a program. We also create and implement evaluations to gather long-term behavior and performance changes resulting from the training.
​
PROGRAM REVIEW
We help you determine if your programs are accomplishing goals. Optimum Development follows a process to review your existing training materials to determine if they meet your current learning and development requirements.
